Editor's Advice:
It’s time for Hyundai to introduce a new, larger, more powerful Sonata capable of taking on the domestic, let alone Japanese, competition. The primary drivers for 2004 Hyundai Sonata purchase are competitive prices, an extensive standard features list including side-impact airbags, and a long powertrain warranty. Dynamically, the Hyundai Sonata fails to impress. Its platform dates to 1999, its V6 engine makes fewer horsepower than a four-cylinder Nissan Altima, and the interior is definitely on the small side for what purports to be a midsize car. But when you’re spending significantly less money than you would for one of the Sonata’s competitors, all while enjoying a smooth ride and basking in luxury amenities such as a leather interior, automatic climate control and premium sound, perhaps back-of-the-pack design and technology is an acceptable trade-off.
