The 2017 Hyundai Sonata is available in a total of 7 trim
levels; including a dynamic Eco model and a svelte Sport 2.0T. The base, SE,
Sport, and Limited models are all powered by a 2.4 L four-cylinder engine. All
sonatas are front wheel drive; and all models are equipped with a six speed
automatic transmission, with the exception of the seven speed Eco model. Interestingly
enough; the Eco model has been recorded going 0-60 in just 7.5 seconds, beating
its own Sport variation by a full second!
All Sonatas come standard with anti-lock disc brakes,
traction and stability control, an air bag laden cabin, and a rear view camera.
New Sonatas also offer Blue Link; Hundais innovative emergency telematics
system that includes roadside assistance, crash response, remote door lock
control, and monitoring features for parents with teenage drivers that include
speed, geo-fencing, and curfew limits.
The 2017 Sonata’s standard features include Bluetooth, a USB
port, a six-speaker sound system, satellite radio, HD Radio, a 7-inch
touch-screen display, and Hyundai’s BlueLink infotainment system with Android
Auto and Apple CarPlay. The cabin is notably spacious and offers a refreshingly
simple and conservative layout; having matured quite a bit over the years. The
exterior design of the new Sonata has been matured and simplified similarly to
the interior. The tapered shape is still sharp looking, including aesthetic geometric
accents and sleek wells for enhanced aero-dynamicity.
The finest feature of the Sonata is its unequaled value.
Although given many upgrades this year, Hyundai has lowered the Sonatas price
by $150, making it the least expensive car in its class. The Sonata also has a
low cost to own thanks to its stellar reliability and excellent gas mileage.
The Sonata may not sport a flashy or bold design, but this is a conscious move
by Hyundai to cater to a more practical demographic. Amongst a plethora of
family oriented vehicles on the market aiming their sights on sportiness and
sportiness alone, its refreshing for practical shoppers to have a sensible
option that still offers optimal connectivity and comfort. You can schedule a
