2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Sedan
Ever owned a Hyundai Sonata? Ever ridden in one of these Korean mid-sized economy cars? Well, neither have I, and I never wanted to until I saw the redesigned version of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata. Past generations for the Sonata sold well, had a very respectable price and scored well in terms of reliability. So, it's no surprise that an old sonata made for a great car. But, let's not dwell on the past when the future looks so bright. The 2011 Hyundai Sonata looks sharp, and I know you have seen a ton of these cars around town. Let me just cut to the chase and give you the only figures you need to know. The Sonata is the cheapest (or close to it) of all its rivals in the mid-sized sedan segment. Base price is $23k. The Hyundai Sonata has the best warranty with a 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. And the fuel economy is 22mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway which also leads the class.
