The Sonata first made its debut in 1985 and has remained on the market ever since, making it one of the oldest models still in the Hyundai lineup. Since its initial release, there have been a total of eight generations to hit the markets.
The latest of these versions was first unveiled in 2019.
It has been manufactured in South Korea, China, and Pakistan. These versions have then been exported to various regions like North and South America.
The Sonata typically faces competition from other Korean and Japanese mid-size cars. The most notable of these include the Honda Accord, Kia K5, Toyota Camry, and Nissan Altima.
Along with most Hyundai models, the Sonata features some standard trim levels. These are the SE, SEL, SEL Plus, and Limited. There is also a high-performance version under the Hyundai N Line. This version was just before 2021.
Another common practice for Hyundai models is to feature a wide array of engines, and the Sonata does this as well. There have always been multiple petrol options throughout its lifespan. There is also a single hybrid and a single LPG engine offered in the latest generation.
Petrol options have ranged from a 1.5 L inline-4 to the 2.5 L inline-4 that is found in the N Line. The hybrid version is based on a 2.0 L inline-4.
Hyundai also offered a diesel option for a time, but this is for the seventh generation. This version has remained available in some regions since its debut in 2014.
