Exceptional review Sam! The detailed insights paired with top-notch editing skills made this video an absolute standout. From the sleek design to the powerful performance, every aspect was beautifully captured. I love this color btw the Transmission Blue is a stunning .🤩

2018 2.0t accord owner here,sometimes I consider trading it for a sonata n-line but then I remember my car is paid off lol.

[@official_commanderhale965]

It's difficult going back to having a payment. I'd imagine the trade-in value wouldn't make it too bad tho

[@alpe6228]

You own a sonata?@@official_commanderhale965

[@Gman2002]

Agreed. That’s why I continue to keep my 2014 Genesis 2.0t. It’s paid off, still fun to drive and no mechanical issues (knock on wood).

[@ericschwartz100]

Actually, that's what I did. I love my Sport Accord 2.0T , but the N Line is very nice as well! I love it just as much, if not more so far!. I couldn't stand that "cat fish" look. everything about the new Sonata is nice!

[@BennyT_3434]

I'm in the same boat as you, if N-Line was AWD or even had an LSD it would be VERY tempting to flip my 2.0t Sport for one...even if I'm a bit wary of Hyundai/Kia quality

Love this car . It sad the interest rates and pricing are still bad . I’ll be waiting a bit …

Yep me too, interest rate is scaring me from getting this in white color

I test drove one last week. I have to say that I was highly impressed by all the features and that gem of an engine. It was like luxury on the inside as well. Thinking I may get one if I can't find an Elantra N for a decent price.

[@jackmemphis777]

I test drove one the other day too by myself. It was exhilarating. The 2024 Sonata N line is also way more comfortable than the Elantra N. They have roughly the same 0-60. Really the only benefit of the Elantra N imo is the crackles and pops

Sonata N Line vs Elantra N

[@GoogleAccount-pt4zu]

This facelifted Sonata N Line is roughly 40-50kg heavier than the pre-facelift so it will slightly affect it’s performance by a few tenths, I think this is rated at 1675kg Kerb weight while the 2021-23 pre-facelift is 1636kg So it’s better if the previous model is used in a drag race.

Subscribed! Thank you Sam for detailing the Canadian Sonata specs, and confirming the rear ventilation (and lack of Blind View Monitor despite the current recycled language on the Hyundai Canada website.) It’s been nearly a year that I’ve been waiting for the refresh to hit the GTA, looking forward to them making the preorders a reality soon!

Holy crap! That's a good looking car. I could see that becoming a really sought after body.

This new one looks terrific, added a few really cool things such as ventilated seats, wireless Android and quad tipped oval exhaust replacing the HDMI ports. All that said, I'll keep my 2023 N line with my Borla exhaust and chrome delete all the way around. Great update, although not quite enough for me to "Let go of my Ego" just yet. Cheers!

[@MichaelFoster876]

If only the sonata N-line had AWD. But if I'm buying a brand new car it's still going to be the sonata N-line, I love it. I have a 2015 veloser turbo technology package, I bought from my older brother and he had it from it was brand new and it was dealer serviced even now. so I know they are reliable and I love the options they come with standard

Another great video, Sam! I was looking at Sonata N Line , K5 GT, Genesis G70 - finally decided and purchased the Kia Stinger 2.5 GT Line with AWD. I like your idea about doing a drag/comparison with these cars. Yes, add the Honda Accord Sport. Cheers!

[@KobeMpthers]

Is the 2.5 stinger faster than the other 3?

[@sirprince888]

@@KobeMpthers How would you define faster? Kia Stinger 2.5t AWD should, on paper, beat K5 GT, Honda Accord Sport, and Sonata N Line from a dig. The G70, in 2024, now has the 2.5t engine (G70 pre-2024 had a 2.0t engine option, Kia Stinger 2.5 would take it, easily). From a roll, I would think Honda Accord Sport would take the lead amongst all cars due its transmission. Accord Sport is a sleeper... no joke. I am a proud Kia Stinger 2.5t AWD owner but Honda Accord would come out ahead in performance, overall. All great cars. Sam would need to do this video for real world outcomes. Sam, let's go!

[@BennyT_3434]

2021 2.0t Sport owner here, bought last year, really intrigued by the N-Line, love the refresh, but lack of AWD or even an LSD in the N-Line makes me just want to stick with my paid off Accord.....for now, haha

[@donteadoss]

Have the ‘25 Sonata NLine as number one on my list after the lease of my ‘23 Sonata NLine concludes, although I want a G80 Sport next … missing a few luxurious amenities my prior vehicles had yet still so impressed with my NLine (outside the brakes which need to be beefed up from stock right off the dealer lot as they wear out too quickly even with relatively minimal usage) - aesthetics, ergonomics, and all.

[@andrelima5124]

The N line should have ALL the tech features AND the awd but still, what a car !

[@briancushman993]

Got a this in a red, the two tone color on it is beautiful

[@alfredortiz1925]

Nice review. My 2021 stock N-line runs 5 seconds flat to 60 mph and the quarter mile in 13.7 seconds. He won't beat that time in this Robocop car but this looks better. Please race the Genesis 2.5T.

[@deftone366]

The thing on the left is a magnet.

[@laural7449]

Sam, any chance to run the 23 vs 24 at the test track? The 24 has a few changes , improved strut tower. Also did not see you talk about my drive and sport + "have to watch again" The dash can be changed, go into cluster, you can change it to "change with mode" all red or a blue theme. You can go from traditional to simplistic "numbers only on mph and tach. The one downside is in auto change it uses the same scheme as regular for anything in my drive. I have a 2024 that is almost running in the 12's, 13.1 is the best so far, new springs on it and more coming as well

[@bradleyscarreviews]

Looks great, and from what I’m gathering at the end of video with what Sam was saying, is that Hyundai basically improved and weaknesses of the 2023. I think this will be quicker than G70 2.5T and Accord.

[@_dmfd]

Looks way better but them removing a ton of tech features is kinda ridiculous imo. Guess you can't have the best of both worlds with the refresh. You already have the perforated seats, might as well just add the two small recirc fans under the seats like the pre refresh, or my 2018 GT Sport. Cooled seats ( I call them ball breezers & cootchie coolers ) are a feature I've lived with for years now & could not revert back to not having. Those, & a panoramic roof which thankfully this at least kept.

[@Kxlwvss]

Sam, they didn't backward. The sales told me it's because whoever bought N line is looking for that driving experience and control, not so much for how techy and what the car can offer them in terms of cabin experience.
