- A LOT to love about this new Sonata Turbo: its baby G80 looks, its loaded cabin/tech suite and its quicker sprint pace than last year.
We take the Phantom Black Sonata 2.0T around our favorite handling loop to see how it performs. No drone this time... but a big double-test weekend coming up.

I bought the 2018 Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.0T+ about 4 months ago, used but with only 12,000 miles on it and man, I couldn’t be happier! This car is sweet. I got the panoramic sunroof, the sport D steering wheel with the blue piped black leather racing seats in mine though and in pristine condition, it really is something to behold. The one guy who leased for those 3 years didn’t even take off the protective films off the interior lights, he only used it to run errands locally. I basically got a brand new 3 year old car 😂 And certified by Hyundai so I go great protection on it too! Love my Sonata ♥️
I’m thinking of buying the same car, any reliability updates?
@@J333rry running like the day I brought it home!
Hyundai is starting to stand out, really love my 2018 Elantra Sport
To each their own. I love my 2018 Sonata sport limited Turbo.
My 2018 sonata completely glossy black , black tyre and black tiny looks just amazing.
We Have One, And Love It! The Only Modifications We Did To It Were Changing The Front/Rear Turn Signals, Reverse Lights, License Plate Lights, Rear Dome Light, And Visor Lights To LEDs! Made A Huge Difference! ❤️❤️❤️
First time for fully synced interior and exterior cams!
You did a good job laying out the pros, the cons, and how the car comes up short in the driving dynamics department. Thanks.
blitzbbffl 😃
Awesome review Tom. You’re the best reviewer on RUclips
Shoot, I was going to get one to take to the track!
Seriously, I had a couple of '09s. The 2.4 was really all I needed. When it was totaled, I got the V-6, and only used the extra power a couple of times in merging. So my next car will be the 2.4 Limited, that's all I want, quiet and comfortable.
David Morse oh it will be anything but quiet after some years and some miles. At least with the 2011s
Lmao at 2:40, did you just pass a car by breaking through a double yellow line?!
Pearl Z for road with little people that’s very normal.
The price is right for the features and I'm not looking for a "performance" car in a Hyundai Sonata. This review, despite pointing out the negatives (which I appreciate knowing!), has pretty much sealed it - I'll probably be getting one of these in a month or two.
elcasey too bad because Hyundai has more horsepower than you know
I’m thinking of trading in my 2016 Kia Soul for a 2019 Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.0T but I’m nervous because I hear so many bad things but I also hear good things. This car is so beautiful too 😖
Like the review one can see you like driving the Sonata so it really improves the reviewl i am driving a 2010 Volkswagon CC and i am looking to buy the New 2018 Sonata Sport Limited . Thanks
I had a 2015 2.0T. I hated the transmission and the high pressure fuel pump pinging noise. It was extremely buzzy inside the car. Hopefully they fixed that. I has to get rid of it because the buzz it was annoying.
Tony Lester all is fixed
interior looks very nice, very bmw-like imo. exterior looks very fashionable too
mix of bmw and vw lol very german
Yeah I agree!!! Tho I absolutely love my sonata!!! There is a delay with the turbo kicking in when you slam the accelerator down. Well not slam, but when you wanna get off to a fast start from a complete stop. I have learned to adapt to it, by pressing down the gas petal seconds or milliseconds prior to you actually wanting to launch... I also get a lot of wheel spin whenever I take off normally like pulling out of a parking lot into traffic. Kinda annoying sometimes.... Also, my one last complaint. I really hope they worked on the air conditioning in these cars. My 2012's air conditoner absolutely sucks and I was totally bummed and disappointed in hyundai because I loved everything about the car. Its just that dam a/c blows really really warm if your at a stop light with a/c on full blast on a hot 100 degree july day. I literally have to put it in neutral and rev the shit out of the engine to get it blowing cold again. I have even become so irritated and said screw the air!!! Turn the piece of junk off and roll down the dam windows...very annoying because air conditioning in a vehicle is pretty much top priority for me in purchhasing a new car. I cant stand to be hot and sweat. So i REALLY REALLY REALLY hope they addressed the issue, if i am to ever buy another hyundai. I do however LOVE it's sister the Kia!!! They are more my style as far as sporty look with chrome accents and chrome wheels!!!
Driving it like you stole it lol
give it a rest Mario... other testers I respect are impressed with the tran, motor, suspension
man this car is great what it is priced for! You can find these for sale after 6 months with very low miles under 16$ which is not bad
Yea always buy Hyundai cars used.... You'll save a ton of cash.
Inderjit Singh maybe base model versions but I haven’t found any newer 2.0t models for that price.
Used certified so you can keep the 10 year power train warranty
Hi thank you for your review :-). One recommendation, if I may: skip the usual talk about style. Everyone does it (and we can all see the car but can't drive it). Go right to driving feel? Just an idea :-) Great performance review by the way! Have you reviewed the Genesis G70? I'm gonna go see if I can find that review by you. Again, I think the straight talk about the car's performance and skipping the style talk can be a good differentiator for you. Cheers :-)
Testing a G70 this week!! Stay tuned for vid 👍
Hahaha I fucking love this review, tires squealing, guy going into corners like there is no tomorrow. You just sold me on sonata.
First lol... Hyundai's have come a long way over the years .
I’m curious what models ARE at the top of your list for midsize sedans?
Paul Connolly Mazda6 and Subaru Legacy
IMO Kia Optima > Mazda 6. I don't know about Subaru Legacy though, never driven one.
Monsieur Africain the Legacy seems nice but it’s such a sleeper car. And the design language always feel outdated
Monsieur Africain what factors of the Optima did you like? Just curious.
you didnt use the triggers
Brake torque launches dont work in computer controlled cars. Stop doing them!
Doug N yea, they do
Watch TFL car drag race with this and made a big difference
I love the new look, she looks like a true road beast!!! I was very disappointed with the look of the last model years. Basically anything after the 2014 year look. I loved that years model. It looked so sleak, curvy and sexy with chrome accents on the outside and the same for the blue lit interior and dash. BEAUTIFUL!!! After that, they dummed the sonata down and made it look plain and boring...exterior, BOOOORING!!! interior, all flat and analog dash with an actual key and ignition, BOOOORING!!! who goes from keyless push start, back to actual key to start 😕 mine has push start and love it!!! Glad to see they refreshed the look she looks dam sexy again!!!
The 2.0T needs AWD before it makes sense. Too much power to the front wheels.
nice car,.too bad the turbo dont deliver as is suppoused to, i think some computer magic will make this car give more power and a better kick, i would go for a honda accord v6. this is just a bad configuration by hyundai
there is no V6 in the Accord anymore
Accessport time!
The dashboard glare is really bad. Dammit I was going to buy this car to.. :(
Jee Choe it’s really bright out! Probably just the camera. The dash is dark. Thanks for watching:)
I prefer my 2018 Optima SX
ваше ничего непонятно чоты там торохтиш
U r driving too fast
