Hyundai Sonata 2008 Overview

The Sonata is the real highlight of the Hyundai range, showing that this Korean company can actually build a world-class midsize sedan. It can do everything that the Japanese class leaders can do, but at a delightfully lower price. The choice of two competitive engines include a 2.4-litre 4-cylinder and a 3.3-litre V6, both with manually-shiftable automatics, though the smaller engine can be had with a proper manual too. Standard features include power windows, power outside mirrors, manual a/c, central door lock, front fog lamps, cloth seats, 15-inch steel wheels and a radio cassette player with 4 speakers and a hidden antenna. Options spread over the range includes dual airbags, ABS brakes, dual exhaust, automatic a/c, electric sunroof, cruise control, leather upholstery, electric driver's seat, trip computer, rear parking warning sensor, rear sunblind, fake wood and metal cabin trim, leather-wrapped steering wheel, 6-CD changer with 6 speakers and a subwoofer and an electronic auto-dimming rearview mirror, along with 17-inch alloy wheels.
