"Owned it for 2 weeks now. Can't make any long-term judgements yet, but will share my experience so far. Style and comfort are absolutely top-notch. Performance is great. Overall, I'm very satisfied. Now the bad news. Fuel efficiency is MUCH lower than claimed. I'm getting around 17 MPG in the city against 24 claimed. Will take it in and see what they say. BueLink looks great on paper, but is horrible in practice. Being an advanced computer user and generally very tech savvy, I can't make it work. The website is totally user-hostile, unresponsive and slow. The Android app is terrible. It won't even recognize my PIN which I KNOW is correct. A great idea badly implemented. I hope they find the courage and wisdom to completely redesign everything related to BlueLink."

"I gave the car an average rating in all categories because it is way too soon to have enough experience to form an objective opinion. This is especially true for reliability. We got the car a month ago and have yet to take it on a major trip."

"Limited nav. loaded. Having owned Acura, Audi, Lincoln,Volvo, Saab, NIssan etc this car is the best buy for the money. The list of standard options, gas mileage, fit and finish is superb. My neighbor has the last model sonata and the difference is night and day. We are very pleased with our purchase. Drive one you wot be disappointed."

"Don Rae of Everett Hyundai did an outstanding job of walking me through the different models, the options on the Sonata, and costs for the car/options. The car itself is fantastic....although I am still trying to get used to the acceleration of the Turbo. Terry"

"Very bad car. Very low engine power, loud engine noise. Always displaying "low tire pressure: warning. Why paying for a new car?"

"We've been Hyundai owners since 1988 (first -Excel). We've purchased seven new Hyundai; one (1) compact, four (4) sedans and two (2) SUV. We fell in love with the very first Hyundai (Excel) we purchased 25 years ago! Our latest, a 2013 Sonata Limited, is very beautiful and the exterior is very stylish (ruby red). The interior is elegant and the cabin very roomy. We get good gas mileage averaging 28-35 mpg.The vehicle's overall performance and looks are excellent!"

"I am a cautious buyer and appreciate value for the money. I actually like to check out different car makes and try different models plus read articles from the experts as to what is out there that I may have missed. After test driving some 30 plus cars and SUV/crossovers, I was so pleasantly surprised by the 2013 Hyundai Sonata Limited PZEV for its comfort, interior features, the amazing sunroof, safety, warranty, beautiful paint, etc. There are so many things to learn about this car! I was eager to drive this car when we have a snowstorm and drove it over slushy, snow-covered, and mostly snow-packed surfaces and its traction control and stability control worked great. The outside mirror heaters worked very nicely and the car warmed up quickly. My Sonata has the technology package and I really like itsw navigation and outstanding stereo systems. The seats are comfy and nice warm. I do understand what a few others have commented about instrument clutter but, after a few trips, I am happy they are all there and available to me. The only two minor negative features on this car so far has been the mediocre gas mileage and their Blue Link communications. First, the gas mileage: I am not sure if part of it was warming up the car or the winter gas blends that are notorious for giving us consumers poorer gas mileage. My first tank was 23 MPG and I figure that I was driving on the highway about 75% of the time. I was expecting around 30 MPG but, like I said before, it may have been me idling the car a lot while learning the car, winter warmups, etc. Second, the Blue Link feature is not that impressive and seems pricey for what appears to be kind of an On-Star type of service. I was not impressed. I highly recommend getting the technology package for the extra $2,000 as you get the big sunroof, upgraded stereo system, and the navigation package."
