Overview & Reviews

The Hyundai Sonata receives minor exterior styling updates and an all-new interior for 2009, giving it one of the most upscale cabins in the midsize sedan class. Power and fuel economy have also been increased for both four- and six-cylinder engines, while the automatic transmission has been retuned for smoother shift quality. An auxiliary audio jack has been added to the standard features list, while the Limited trim level adds two-level heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and an optional navigation system.

• Beautiful interior, velvety ride, spacious cabin and trunk, impressive value with long features list, lengthy warranty.

  A lot of car for what you pay - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By mervay2 - August 6 - 2:06 am

  Have had for 18 days now. Not as powerful or as steady as the PT cruiser I had, but is real quiet and has a great ride. Getting 27 mpg and I can use regular gas. Lots of room inside. I got the fabric protection, good thing I did. First week I had it, my daughter spilled a red cherry drink in the back seat. Wiped up real easy and No Stain!! The dash layout is great. The Ipod and audio jack works great with my Ipod Nano.

  Great Buy - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Hyundai4me - July 18 - 2:30 am

  I considered all the other makes before making this my final choice. I bought a base 4cyl with base options except bluetooth. Everything is standard!!! Unless you got to have leather and sunroof etc etc..you can not beat the deal!! Even if you bought the top of the line limited your still ahead of the other makes. Car has plenty of power. Great gas mileage. Rides smooth and quiet. Build is superb. Only 2 minor glitches is headlights cast a weird line due to the projector headlights and motor has gotten louder since new but not something i would rush to the dealer for. Do your math and for 18K...good luck finding better priced in the same field!

  Very good and practical - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Eman - July 17 - 8:40 pm

  Im 48. After many years of sports cars and pick-ups, including my last Chevy S-10,which literally fell apart at 70,000 miles, I bought a new Sonata. I am a family man, with daughters 11 and 8. My wife drives a van. So, I decided to be practical -- buy a family sedan with good ratings and few frills. It came down to a Sonata or Honda Accord. I liked the Sonata better after test drives (the base Accord had a weird dash with giant radio call numbers) -- and it was $3,600 less. So far I like it, though there may be a thump underneath. I liked the S-10 new too for a while, but quickly problems arose and I was profoundly disappointed overall. No more union- made cars for me.

  Great value - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By theofile - June 26 - 9:53 pm

  Just finished a 6K mile trip out west. The car performed great. Got between 28 and 37 MPG. The 28 was doing a steady 81 with AC. The 37 was doing around 55. Couldnt have asked for more of 175 horses. I enjoyed the trip. The car was quiet, and we enjoyed the radio and music using a memory stick.

  Hyundai Rocks - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By CHIFLYGUY - June 26 - 9:56 am

  Excellent car so far. Extremely smooth ride, transmission, and very responsive 4.25 mpg city so far. Soaks up bumps very well here in Chicago (city of potholes). Seats very comfortable and gives the driver good driving position. Has everything I want except bluetooth. Love the new interior that feels like a Lexus. If you are looking for Accord/ Camry you must look at this car as well. I believe it is just a better car plus its thousands less with hell of a warranty.

  Toyotazilla - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Doug - June 14 - 12:20 pm

  My second Hyundai. Traded a 2006 Elantra for the 2009 Sonata. Feels like moving up from a VW bug to a Greyhound Bus, this car is large! Love the quietness, Michelin tires and great fuel economy.

  Nice car, Good Price - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Ed - June 12 - 5:56 pm

  The Sonata GLS with sunroof is a very nice car. The steering has very little feedback, the springs "bong" each time I back out of the drive, the AC works well and the engine is pretty responsive for a 4 CYL. The dash is generally fine, the trunk is large. Nice car for the money.

  Hyundai over Accord - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Dan C - June 4 - 12:03 am

  Bought a 2009 SE V6. Spent a lot of time narrowing the search. Came down to the Honda Accord. Then just for curiosity, stopped @ a Hyundai dealerships and drove the Sonata. Quieter, more creature comforts for less $$, and a warranty thats best on the market. So far have only 500 miles. The first fill up, got 31 mpg. The car really is amazing how smooth and responsive. Youre at 80 mph and unless youre paying attention, you wouldnt know it. The SE really is a great handling car for a family sedan. My other driver is a Mustang GT. The Sonata isnt a GT, but its almost as tight in the corners Give the Sonata a fair shot. Youll be amazed.

  Another solid performer in its class - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By SevenBizzos - May 24 - 1:27 am

  After owning an Elantra for 125k miles with no issues (until it met a guardrail), we moved up in class and picked up the Sonata Limited V6. So far, its been an excellent choice. Our MPG has ranged from 33 on a highway trip with 100% fuel, to 23 that was mostly suburban traffic with E10 winter blend. I think thats a fair number considering the engine displacement and size of the vehicle.

  WOW! - 2009 Hyundai Sonata
  By Cliff - May 18 - 9:43 am

  I brought a beautiful new 1999 Cadillac DeVille, color Shale/ beige int. traded it for a new 2005 Chrysler 300 base. silver/grey boring plastic everywhere Int. rear wheel drive and found out too late, that the base models were lacking major safety features like anti- lock brakes etc. wanted out. I had a vision of my Caddy in a Sonata. Camel/butterscotch leather int. with wood grain, lacking nothing in options including Navagtion completely loaded! I was upside down in my Chrysler trade by $9,000 because of over mileage at 63,000. The nine thousand was incorporated in my new payments. The deal $32,000 after rebates. No regrets!!! WOW! this (Lexus) car is way under priced! GET ONE!
