Comfortable & Reliable Vehicle

The 2001 Hyundai Sonata is the best car I've ever owned. It has been a workhorse that'll climb the Continental Divide in an blizzard with 8-inches of snow accumulation; powering around all other vehicles, including 4-wheel/all-wheel drive. It handles mountainous terrain uphill and downhill with the best of them. Cruise control, power windows, door locks, mirrors, and all controls are right at your fingertips. Smooth riding and reliable!

Most reliable car our family ever had.

I inherited this car from my father and I've got to say it's a speed demon for a 4 cylinder. Fast off the start and good braking. It's fun to drive on local errands and the seating is comfortable. Nice interior compared to some newer cars. It was the most dependable car my father ever owned. It's needed some repairs, but nothing compared to what can go wrong with a car. I love buzzing around in this car. Great handling, easy to drive. It's too easy to find yourself speeding. I Hope to have it a few more yrs.
