This is the most reliable vehicle I have owned .

This vehicle is very comfortable. I have ample enough leg space. The back seat I very comfortable. The trunk is very spacious. I am looking forward to driving this vehicle to California next month to visit family and friends. I love the great gas mileage!

Great car at a great price

This car had all the options i would want in a car without having to add on options that I do not need as other dealers require you to do so. Hyundai has done a lot of research on what customers want and have hit it on the head. would buy a Hyundai because they know how to please customers.

Fun to Drive

I wanted an affordable car that was comfortable and easy to drive for my daily driver. I am very happy with my new 2018 Sonata. It is fun to drive and surprisingly smooth for its class. It has a very functional touch screen which which makes it easy to use all the tech stuff, Phone, Music etc..., and its compatible with Android Auto so I have navigation as well. Nice Touch.

Great look for a Great price

Good choice for a good looking car Decided to try a Hyundai without much expectations however, after driving the car I was wondering what took me so long. I am totally pleased with the car. Think everyone should take a look. Just because it is a Hyundai does not mean it does not have great value,.

Favorite of All Cars I've Owned

This car is my fourth Sonata. I have had a silver older model, a black, and a white one. This one I just bought is Lakeside blue and absolutely beautiful! I am going to keep it for a long time. It performs as well as my other Sonatas, if not better. It also has several more features than my 2013 had. We drove it back to Hannibal after purchasing it in Ballwin, MO. It was a dream to drive and very comfortable. I love the back-up camera and the blindspot indicator.
