My Biggest complaint with the Korean brands is they change the styling too soon and too often. If you buy one in 4 to 5 years you appear to have an old car. You can buy a Toyota - VW - Lexus - Honda etc... and a 4 to 5 year old model can still feel fresh if well taken care of. I hope that makes sense. Plus I have heard horror stories from dealer/service experiences from the Korean brands. NO THANK YOU
Canada - we get a fantastic (Toyota matches the pricing pretty much for the new Camry "one up for base" SE - I believe AWD would be extra though) - AWD base but they add a bunch over the USA model (leather, heated, cooled, memory seats .. and I think couple more things). We do NOT get the hybrid - with Hyundai saying that the Elantra Hybrid - which only comes in the top model here - is in a higher demand sizing (in Canada - actually by a substantial amount) AND the front seat area in the Elantra is shocking almost identical to Accord and Camry - with a back seat that many buyers might find a "we can live with that just fine" sizing. Car reviewers I follow here said - that is correct BUT they feel it was a big over sight not to offer it anyway - with Hyundai telling them they can always change the offerings.
The new rear doesn’t match the cars shape, it’s like it’s trying to be an oval and a rectangle at the same time and the sharp led light bar makes it look too robotic for the curves of the rear bumper. Idk the rear just doesn’t work for me, I prefer the rear of the pre facelift with the rest of the new one.
Hello Aslam Alkum ❤ I like your videos awesome My name is Hamza from Pakistan 🇵🇰 I like your Personality You are so good and soo beautiful ❤ I am very proud of you 👍 And very respectful to you. 🥰🥰🥰
I owned a 24 sel connivence for 7 months and hated the car, the motor feels underpowered, and over revs when trying to accelerate, i loved how quite the cabin was, the steering wheel was too large and took that sporty feel away from the car. I traded the 24 and bought a 23 limited.
Great look at the sonata. I agree. Kudos to Hyundai. They will and do change design elements rather quickly. The also offer sedans. Another point for Hyundai. They keep trying to get better is also a plus. Would I buy one. No. Never.
The design looks overdone. Like, elements do not come together for a cohesive whole. That’s a problem because you’re gonna be looking at it if you own one.
Way too much going on with design inside and out. Lol it’s just a midsizer. Not close to New Camry. You should see a brain surgeon if you consider this over a Camry.
By the time you add on all the features that come standard in the sonata limited, to the Camry, you’ll be paying well into the 40’s where the sonata is 38/39. Toyota fucks you on all the add ons. Plus dealership mark ups. And the interior in the Camry is still outdated compared to this. Shopped around and test drove many of both, and can say the only thing that was better in the Camry, was the speed and exterior, and only slightly. I think the sonata is a better deal
“Where it can antagonize rental car users for years to come” 😅 too real for that 😂
Wait, but why? I don’t get that
They don't sell to rental car companies
Purchased this car and love it!

Great analysis on ride quality. Some auto reviewers sadly neglect to describe how the car actually rides.

My service experience and ownership have been excellent.
That’s a good point

How were you able to get the hybrid info to display on the dashboard?
Hi. Is this car comfortable for petite drivers?
Does this absorb bumps and potholes better than the Camry?
better

How the cabin noise on highway?
9:54 and the next two: “sonota”
🤦♂️ thanks for noting, apologies for the mistake!
@@cargurus 😊
Wonder why the trunk was not opened for display. The size of the trunk was also not disclosed.
And it has a powered trunk lid, so no more closing it yourself
@@marcojeda6954 On the limited maybe. On my SEL hybrid, it has a little handle to close one self.

The steering wheel is horrible, makes the whole car feel like im driving grandmas old buick
I have not experienced this. The only thing I can think of is you may want to make sure you have regenerative braking turned off?

The interior here is so much better than the Camry. There’s no comparison. You only get a Camry if reliability matters to you the most.
@@dajilus2410I find that the XSE/XLE have a significantly quieter cabin, your experience?
