Hyundai Sonata
This new Sonata is creating quite a stir, and for several reasons. First, there’s its resolutely modern and well-balanced body. Next, there’s its very contemporary passenger compartment that features high-quality materials. Finally, its mechanics, namely a 2.4-litre four-cylinder paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic, is on par with the competition. There’s also a 274-hp 2.0-litre turbo version, and a hybrid is on the way!
