The 2020 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Is A 51 MPG Sleek Sedan You Can’t Ignore

[@theredline]

*UPDATE* Hyundai has finally announced pricing on the 2020 Sonata Hybrid! Blue $27,750 SEL $29,900 Limited $35,300 These prices are plus the $975 destination charge, which means the Limited Hybrid in this video comes in at $36,275 or a very reasonable $1800 more than the gas online Limited. It also make the new Sonata Hybrid about $1,000 less expensive versus an Accord Hybrid Touring or a whopping $3,000 less expensive than a Camry Hybrid XLE!

[@jjvodvarka]

Disappointed that no pano option on the Limited trim

[@maxweinbach3996]

Redline Reviews what do you mean gas “online” option?

[@chequemate]

Max Weinbach gas “only” Limited trim.

[@myytchannel6632]

The base model of the Sonata, Accord and the Camry each offer the best mileage of each brand. When it comes to the base models of each of those brands, Accors is the cheapest. Sonata is more expensive than Accord. Camry is more expensive than Accord and Sonata. So, one should buy the Accord before buying the Sonata. This is for the BASE trim of each brand. Plus, Hyundai has been hyped and so dealerships seem to price their cars more expensive than Camry and Accord.

Happy Friday! We were hoping to have final pricing on this car by now, but we are still waiting for Hyundai to make the final announcement on that. We're still going to guess around $37,000 for this Limited trim and maybe $26,000 for the base model. If that's the case, the new Sonata Hybrid will be a compelling daily driver for a lot of people looking for the longest cruising range. Hope you all have a great weekend and stay safe!

[@dearbulls]

@@andrew.woolman7449 and as redline already said, you are comparing apple to orange. You should compare corolla hybrid to the upcoming elantra hybrid. The sonata hybrid is competing against camry hybrid. And the compact section (corolla, elantra) and the mid size section (sonata, camry) have much difference in where you cannot see. For example, sonata hybrid has multi link rear suspension other than a torsion beam on corolla. And safety features such as structural strengths etc are way different.

With hybrids like this, there's no economical reason to buy an electric car.

[@EdgarRenje]

Yes, there are. As long as you keep a combustion engine inside, you'll always have to service it like one, but it weighs more than a regular one, so the consumption without the electric part is higher. Hybrids are not much more than a step inbetween, but they combine the worst of both worlds. If you try to drive mostly electric, than you don't need the ICE, if you drive mostly with the ICE, than it have to care more weight all the time and its electric range is limited. Not to mention that most electric cars have enough range for most of us.

This new Hyundai Sonata hybrid looks like a dream come true. I wish they had an AWD option and the solar panel roof was available on lower trims. It’s amazing what a difference an automatic transmission makes. My parents have a 2020 Hyundai Ioniq. They upgraded after an uninsured motorist hit them and totaled their Prius. I hated driving the Prius - it was like driving an iPhone. Their new Ioniq isn’t exciting to drive, but the engine is so much smoother than a CVT. We test drove an AWD Prius as well, which was nice, but it was way more expensive. My parents were ultimately won over by Hyundai’s impressive lifetime warranty on the battery.

[@dearbulls]

I'm all in with you that they should code it to tachometer in sport, it's simple UI change and should be able to get done in seconds by just borrowing from regular version. That tach-in-blindspot-camera thing should be carried over from non-hybrid model, otherwise they will have to develop a power gauge instead. But it's a good catch. Hyundai seems spent less time in development of hybrid and this isn't a new thing. For my 2017 sonata hybrid, the cruise control (standard not AAC) behaves weird for it accelerates to 2 mph above the set speed on uphill, and slows down to 2 mph below the setting speed when downhill. I have drove some other vehicles with unstable cruise control but this one behaves exactly the opposite. And i have drove the non-hybrid version which is fine. I think the reason is they use the program directly from gas model without considering the work of the electric motor. So when it goes up hill the electric motor kicks in, if it uses the output pattern at the rate of gas engine only, it definitely gonna go faster. And when downhill the electric motor starts to charge the battery which slows down the vehicle. Good thing is you are not going to fall into speed trap on long downhills. Bad thing is you might drives like a maniac in the eyes of other drivers for the weird behavior.

[@josiahstearns9615]

I have to agree with a lot of your comments. If they want to make the Hybrid that much more attractive to entice people to go a greener route vs. that gas model then they should be giving you some more features or at least keeping it the same as the gas model instead of taking things away. Like - > Giving us the option for a sun/moonroof (Hoping that comes into demand as you mentioned) > Throw in some LED fog lights > Lose that mustache > A tac would also be nice to have. ( Wonder if there's a way to add that in the settings. Just seems weird that they offer paddle shifters and yet don't display for you a tac. ) ~ The wheels aren't bad in my opinion. They could maybe look a little more snazy, but they're not a make or break design. I've seen worse as I'm sure you have as well. ~ The rear is another middle of the road look for me. I don't necessarily need to have LED reverse lights. If they're there, fine - if not, no big deal. ~ The back row does seem slightly cramped. So a little more room would have been nice. ~ The park "summoned" feature would be nice to have but based on your review of the gas model, looks like they still had some kinks to work out. All in all, the Hybrid is pretty nice and the fuel economy sound impressive. It's just missing out on some things that I would like to have had and left me slightly disappointed after watching your review on the gas model. Neither of which sound like they have the get-up-and-go performance that young led-footers enjoy. But again this is a commuter family car. Lastly - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go back to your original review format. It was much more organized, and easier to follow. That being said I still appreciate the info you provide and the 2 cents ( sometimes 10) you throw in. Lol Stay safe, Sofyan.

Honestly I'm happy it's an option. It might not all be that efficient but we need to at least get the product out there so it can see more research and revisions to something useful like maybe 6miles to 8 miles daily ? That'll handle at least one way to work. (Remember it's a tiny solar panel)

[@ileref]

The wheels fit this car really well.They're going to be super easy to clean too

[@MuslimMike]

Any update on the N-line model? I am literally holding out for that, I fell in love after hearing all the specs! Hope it will still have all the tech options of the limited.

[@ganderson5023]

Should be out by the end of 2020 as a MY21

[@mpg65]

The front fascia looks so much better than the regular gas version.

[@cortezmiller1899]

Where did you film this video, if you don’t mind me asking? Every time I watch your videos, the scenery is always nice!

[@Del_Monico]

Dude - great review HOWEVER you cheapen it by saying things like you don't like the rims or you don't like this or that. Those things are your OPINION and really don't matter. I happen to like the rims.

[@carlmckinnon107]

Really like this review format. Keeps one more into it from start to finish. Also any chance the Sonata N can make it this year?

[@theredline]

Thanks for the feedback! We hope to drive the new Sonata N-Line by the Fall or Winter.

[@hurpdurp916]

Top contender for my next car.

[@Ronaldo-nj9pi]

I don't like the front or there rear at all. Nice interior and I like the idea of a stepped 6 speed transmission with a hybrid. CVTs are terrible for the engaged driving experience, in my opinion.

[@yahigelharrison7870]

It always nice watching you and Raiti Rides....

[@yahmarri7250]

1. Our 2015 accord hybrid touring has 625 miles of range. 2. The solar roof was used with some Prius models as an option. So not that cutting edge or exciting

[@johnwoo9746]

I am such a big fan,, but Optima is not K9, K900 is K9, Optima would be K5.

[@Cynical496]

They need to fire whoever is in charge of the outside look of this car.

[@111danish111]

The front end has grown on me however the rear end is terrible. Missed opportunity really.

[@Cynical496]

With a few changes it can look great. And yeah the back is hideous.

[@Cynical496]

Tyrel Tolliver they haven’t given up they just stick to what they make good and that’s their muscle cars.

[@HansProbs]

THANK you 🙏

[@mgjmiller1995]

8:59 That steering wheel and the button shifter are the only detractors (to me) in that interior. Everything else there seems nicely done + integrated. And then there's those two things 😂. [Sidenote: it would be great to see next Tucson redesign, a Venue refresh in 3 years incorporate the hybrid system!]

[@sachemrock]

Wow, I would love to have that kind of range. I think Hyundai did a great job with this redesign. No smat pahk, what will Bostonians do? 🤪

[@johnnymichael1804]

Being from Boston I cannot tell you how many times I've been asked if my Sonata has that smaht pahk.... 😅

[@MegaGeorge1948]

Does this car have optional regenerative braking off throttle and light brake pedal application, like the Toyota Prius?

[@KraziAzn2]

Pruis had a solar roof before,

[@wzDH106]

Yes, but from my understanding the Prius only wired the roof to the cabin fan and maybe accessories. While Hyundai is allowing solar to charge the primary hybrid battery. www.greencarreports.com/news/1127957_2020-hyundai-sonata-hybrid-what-to-expect-from-its-mpg-boosting-solar-roof

[@moloono1]

2017 Prius Prime Plug-In had a solar-panel roof that charged the battery.

[@goretorturekid]

Today I’m trying to watch 📽️ the 2024. I think it’s banner.

[@AeroDude73]

Of course you can’t get a panoramic sun roof since it has the solar roof.

[@AeroDude73]

Lol. With the solar roof, the 2 miles a day would be up to 730 miles A Year, not the Lifetime of the Vehicle. 😆🤣😂🤷‍♂️

[@TommyG11814]

I have a 2023 Sonata SEL hybrid and averaging 53.2 mpg fantastic car.
