2015 Hyundai Sonata Review, Specs, and Images
2015 Hyundai Sonata Reviews
The 2015 Hyundai Sonata features a classier and more sophisticated take on that current design one that might very well age more gracefully than the innovative 2011-2014 Sonata. Achieved by adopting the automaker’s new Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language first seen on the 2015 Genesis, the new look dresses up the curves with a little more formality.
The new car is just a smidge longer and wider, which boosts interior space, but overall what it adds up to, essentially, is a more subtle, nuanced look to the car as a whole. Changes are subtle but add up to a suit that looks more tailored, less modern. A new rear lip spoiler with chrome surround, as well as a dual exhaust with bright tips brings the Sonata in line with the mid-size-sedan mainstream, as do standard LED daytime running lamps.
2015 Hyundai Sonata Specs
2015 Hyundai Sonata looks a little more formal as well, with controls now compartmentalized into horizontal arrays and angled slightly toward the driver; it’s a bit more like the design used in the closely related Kia Optima. The steering wheel now has a sportier design, and the column itself has been redesigned. Power ratings actually go down a bit for both of Hyundai’s engines
In the 2015 Sonata, versus last year’s model, but the automaker says that the different tuning should result in better responsiveness at low and mid revs. The base 2.4-liter in-line four-cylinder engine now makes 185 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, while the 2.0T version has a smaller-turbine turbocharger and makes 245 hp and 260 lb-ft.
