2015 Hyundai Sonata Revealed

by Derek Kreindler

Published: March 23rd, 2014

Hyundai unveiled the Korean market Sonata in Seoul, while the North American spec version gets its debut in New York next month.

The 2015 Sonata uses 30 percent more advanced high-strength steel features the kind of tech that is proliferating in the mid-size segment: Advanced Smart Cruise Control, blind spot and lane departure systems, a hands-free trunk, and knee airbags. The new car is nearly 1.4 inches longer and 1.2 inches wider.

We’ll likely see a 2.4-liter GDi with 190 hp, 182 lb-ft of torque as well as a 2.0T powertrain. A Sport model (like the Chrysler 200S and Honda Accord Sport) is also coming. Transmission options include a six-speed manual and six-speed automatic.

I recently bought a 2014 Elantra.....granted it is the first new car I've purchased in 14 years, but I really like it. For 18,400 it was good value for the money.

What is with the missing chrome slats in the middle of the grille?

El scotto Work it backwards. How many people use Tesla Super Chargers: Primary Charging Point - this is my normal charging station; Secondary charging station - at a retail location or planned on trips, Rarely or Not at All.
FreedMike Some clarification would make sense here: Tesla is laying off the team responsible for BUILDING NEW Supercharger stations. Apparently the ones already being built are going to be completed. The folks who maintain the current network are apparently unaffected. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/30/business/tesla-layoffs-supercharger-team.htmlAlso, many other other manufacturers are switching to NACS in the upcoming years, and some of those companies are already providing Supercharger adaptors for their non-NACS vehicles. Some Superchargers can already accomodate non-Tesla vehicles with a built in adaptor called the "magic dock."Given all this, my guess? They're trying to maximize utilization of the current system before building it out further.
Dartman Damn Healey! You can only milk a cow so many times a day! Don’t worry though I bet Flex, 28, 1991, and all the usual suspects are just getting their fingers warmed up!
