2024 Hyundai Sonata SEL Convenience | Best New Midsize Sedan?

In this video I show you the refreshed 2024 Hyundai Sonata SEL Convenience Package. The Sonata SEL Convenience is one step up from the entry level trim and is the highest trim with the standard 2.5L 4 cylinder powertrain. With updated styling and technology, the Sonata remains very competitive in the segment. Pricing is very similar to 2023 with only minor increases (and decreases) across the board. Let me know what you think of the Sonata SEL Convenience in the comments below!

Cool video man. You should connect the bluetooth or play some audio so we can hear the info-tainment system

[@jacobie_2440]

I have the same 2021 SEL with Convenience which comes with homelink and rear ac vents. I'm disappointed that the 2024 does not have these.

[@CarsMadeSimple]

Yeah it is a bummer. The Limited Hybrid still has them but that is also much more expensive.

[@rko316632]

what does the left screen cluster look like if you dont get the convenience package and you go for the AWD instead?

[@shaurya409]

I'm hoping Hyundai will soon launch the Sonata in India in instead of the Elantra. Yes, this is pretty much the same as Verna, but Sonata looks way better.

F'in love my 24' Sonata! Feels like a new 7 series on a budget!

[@RuthlessReyhan2006]

still here

[@user-bq5cs5oe5x]

Why did some of their cars not have the chipped key immobilizer so all the kids from the hood can steal them? Also what was the cause of some Hyundai cars catching fire whilst being driven? A main bearing issue? How is that possible? Was it the main crank bearing in the engine or was it caused by a broken fuel line or fuel distributor under the hood?

[@BigBossBallSoHard]

Hyundai sent an OTA software update to fix that

[@justgaming6245]

Sonata SEL Convenience OTD $33.2k vs Elantra Limited $31.6k . What's your thought between these two options for someone who really likes tech and bells and whistles and likes a comfortable ride? Thank you!

[@CarsMadeSimple]

The Elantra Hybrid Limited gets to that price but the standard Elantra Limited is around $28k. If you are still comparing the Elantra Hybrid Limited to this one, I would probably pick the Elantra. I don't think you can go wrong with either though.

[@justgaming6245]

@@CarsMadeSimple That was factoring in all taxes and fees and the $500 add-ons like cargo net etc on the sticker price. So the non hybrid Elantra Limited OTD ends up at that price for me

[@wulongchai]

i would pick elantra hybrid limited for ambient light and other limited only features unless you are absolutely love with sonata new look. I am in same boat, and I am still thinking about it too. I want like elantra interior with sonata exterior haha

[@justgaming6245]

@@wulongchai That's funny cause I want the Sonata interior lmao. I don't like the bar between the two front seats

[@wulongchai]

@@justgaming6245 well because you say SEL. Sel doesn't have features that only available in limited cars. I would take Sonata hybrid limited but it is not in my budget.

[@spadey4180]

Are the seats Half leather half cloth of fully cloth because they look half leather

[@CarsMadeSimple]

They are full cloth

[@gfusco2008]

Where's the Bose :/

[@BigBossBallSoHard]

no need for Bose the system sounds fine. I have the same car but in dark gray

Does Sonara 2024 support Wireless CarPlay?

[@CarsMadeSimple]

Yes!

Sonara?

You should have spent more time on the transmission being on the wheel. I haven't seen that in decades and I think you should have made a bigger deal about that. Plus, the "new" mileage/gas screen is just stupid. Did Hyundai really need to reinvent the wheel? Dumb. AND, I am a Hyundai owner.

[@randyunderwood2894]

leather should be std on this trim. very disappointing. also i think all the tech is a distraction from the actual driving.

[@bti-ro2vh]

This convenience package really is disappointing.

[@CarsMadeSimple]

It is a decent chunk of money for the features but I think the biggest disappointment is the lack of AWD for this trim.

[@BigBossBallSoHard]

I own this car and the convenience package is fine 🤦🏽

[@theg0att8]

does it have ambient lighting ?

[@CarsMadeSimple]

@@theg0att8 Ambient lighting is found on N-Line and Limited Hybrid.

[@amanoberoi8034]

Doesn’t convenience package include led interior lights. Is it different from ambient lights?

[@dougn2350]

This version of Sonata will be the slowest selling Sonata in Hyundai history. It has way too many dumbass features and design flaws
