Continuous quiet space inside, enduring a 1000 miles of travel daily.

The vehicle is quiet and sound eliminating. The automatic factory take home features are convenient. The only thing that is hard to keep up with is the keyless door/ignition. It is a continuous thought process to remember to put the key on me as I do not always carry a purse. The trunk space is very large/deep for a midsize vehicle.

Save your gas. Save the planet.

Smooth ride for a midsize sedan. Lots of room and comfortable. Seating and control panels are ergonomic. No problems with reliability. The gas savings is really worth owning a smaller car. Has good acceleration for a hybrid. I expected it to be really slow. Keyless start is my favorite feature though.

Dee W

Affordable and spacious car.

Really great and dependable car. Eco friendly and very spacious great family car. Your family would love this car. Affordable car and has a luxury look to it. This car would last you and your family years to come. I cannot wait to upgrade to a newer year.

I love that it is Bluetooth you do not have to reach for your phone.

It is electric so runs on gas and battery. Is a smooth ride. Has Bluetooth as well. It is an easy car to drive with a great system. When unlocked the car locks automatically when not opened in a certain time span. It is affordable because you are not constantly filling the tank with gas.

Illia G

Reliable and gorgeous fuel sipping sedan.

No substantial issues. We have put over 100,000 miles on it. We bought it used with 30,000 miles. The only issue we had was with the 12 volt car battery. The cruise control may behave strange once in a while, especially on long trips. The comfort features are adequate and reliable. The choice of plastic around the cupboard is very poor and has many scratches from the use. Overall it is a great fuel efficient and reliable car we love to drive.

My car is very comfortable and lovable.

My vehicle is very comfortable and has great mileage. I really like how reliable it is. My car is big and my family enjoys going on long vacations and road trips in my car. It has been five years since I bought my current car and it still looks new and I still really love and enjoy driving it.

2014 Hyundai sonata hybrid.

The best features about this car is the performance. The engine is so quiet it is easy to forget it is on and running! The fact this car is a hybrid really helps save on gas, it automatically goes into battery mode when it is running for a certain amount of time. The back seats and front seats have plenty of space.

Rachel M

10/10 car! So far so good, no complaints so far.

Ever since I bought my car I have had no problems with it. My car gets amazing gas mileage and I have to fill it about every 8-10 days. It is very comfortable and easy to drive and has very comfortable seats and nice roomy backseat, and a good trunk space.

Negative Owner Reviews

Amiyah M

It is not a bad car however it kind of is expensive to maintain.

The tail light always goes out. I find it very annoying that I literally by 2 tail lights every month. Ironically when I see people with the same car I have their tail lights also always out. Since having this car is gotten about four recalls. It is an ok car but it is a lot to maintain.

Kristen F

Reliable car with a few drawbacks.

The frame is fragile. Seats aren't very comfortable. It runs well and has good ac and I like the heated seats. The back seat is spacious. The trunk could be bigger. No mechanical problems so far. It gets great gas mileage. It's a pretty reliable car but I would not get another one.

ASHLEY M

Vehicle is slowly giving out.

Not very comfortable. Electric windows are starting to not work. A/c already went. Luckily I was still in warranty to have the items replaced. Also, a recall on the sunroof. It is a hybrid so it is great on gas though. I would recommend it for people that drive pretty far or alot. However, hybrids are slowly getting better. I am officially hooked on hybrid vehicles after this vehicle.

2014 Hyundai sonata hybrid limited edition.

Had to replace brake booster and abs system. Other than that I love my car. Drive and ride smoothly. Would trust to take it anywhere. I love all the extras on it. Really good on gas as well. Hard to find people to work on it because of it being a hybrid.

Overall a fantastic city car.

I really love my Hyundai. The rear view camera is super accurate, the heated seats work great, and the mpg is fantastic for its year. I drive mainly city highway, which is great for this car. I drove it in the mountains once for a vacation and it really struggled. It is by no means an off road car. It is still pretty new (2014) but I have had no issues with the car, only needing to take it in for oil changes and tire rotations. It is difficult for my grandma to get into because it sits really low, but it is really comfortable for me. If you are transporting people with mobility issues in their legs, it will be difficult for them. My only complaints is no sun roof and no place for a spare tire.

Pros from Owners

Karina C.

It helps me save money on gas and it has enough space that I can fit almost anything in there but it is not too big to the point where it is too hard to drive. It seat warmers which definitely helps put in cold weather. Overall, it is a great car.

Cons from Owners

Karina C.

I do not like that if you have the heat on the windshield, you cannot get heat anywhere else on your car like, for example, your feet. I do not like the fact that there's no windshield wipers on the back windshield.
