Although not entirely updated for 2018, the Sonata has undergone several notable changes, mainly cosmetic in nature, both inside and out. Furthermore, the Sonata sedan family is one of the most complete with gasoline, hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions. The basic variants are equipped with a 185-horsepower, 2.4L four cylinder while the more luxurious Ultimate is powered by a 245-horsepower, 2.0L turbo that practically turns the Sonata into a sports car.
