How much can a hyundai sonata tow?

Through model year 2010, the listed towing capacity of the Hyundai Sonata is 1,000 pounds, or precisely a half ton. Dividing this figure by ten to get maximum tongue weight, it will sit right at 100 pounds -- which won't get You very far at all. However, beginning in 2011, the listed trailer weight suddenly jumped to 2,000 pounds, as per the owner's manual. This is a bit more formidable, as there are several use cases where one ton of towing could be useful. What changed To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure. The model years use the same or similar engines, and there was no major overhaul or redesign during the 2011 model year -- it wasn't until 2014 that a new generation took shape. A word of caution, You'll want to stay away from heavy loads with a passenger sedan regardless -- the transmission isn't built to withstand heavy tows. Take that under advisement when making decisions about how much You'll be putting on the back.
