Hyundai Sonata
The Sonata midsize sedan offers a selection of four engines for the 2022 model year. Base models get a naturally aspirated 2.5-litre four-cylinder, while others receive a turbocharged 1.6-litre unit. Performance enthusiasts will appreciate the 290-horsepower Sonata N Line, while the Sonata Hybrid achieves a combined 5.0 L/100 km—great for those who prioritize efficient driving. Unlike a growing number of competitors, Hyundai does not offer an AWD option.
