Everything perfect except the gear-shift.

Hyundai gives you the best styling, comfort, features and quality for your money -- only complaint is they continue to relocate gear-shifts, first to center-console buttons to, now, steering-column twist control. Bring back regular 4-position (P, R, N, D) center-console gearshifts -- sometimes, the old (tried and true) ways are better.

Sonata review

Love everything about this vehicle, except the automatic headlight sensor. If you get in the shade of anything on a bright sunshine day, it turns on the headlights.

Needs a couple improvements

In lower gears/slower speeds, it doesn't shift smoothly. Headlights are angled to low

Good Car

The Sonata is a great car. The only reason I got it for was the gas mileage. My wife's nursing home is 18 miles away, 36 round trip, 4 times a week. Needed something that would be good on gas.

2026 Hyundai Sonata N Line - The Beauty

I & many others find this vehicle very appealing on the road even for it being a “common traffic” vehicle. It is a sleeper that hides a kick-of power but JUST MIGHT need to get a pair of new shoes and learn some more running to catch up with the others. Really though, the N-Line is really just for ones that want a reliable, comforting, nice ride that looks good and gives little WOO if needed! Overall, if you’re looking for something sporty & fun this might be the vehicle, but if you need a bit more sound then I’d definitely recommend the N’s! This vehicle is somewhat unenjoyable to drive due to it’s exhaust, but it still makes me smile kid-like with the windows down and hearing the turbo raise a bit.

I must have gotten a Friday car.

My Sonata has not run right since day 1. I traded my 2023 Sonata N-Line for this one and I am beginning to regret it.

Need bigger display

For the next generation models make a larger entertainment display! Make it flat too, not to curve toward the driver. Add ambient lighting for all models and an inch more for back passengers. Sonata is the ultimate sedan! We need more!
