  • The ALL NEW Sonata N Line is here and Hyundai wants to bring performance to its midsize sedan. On the outside you will notice a special front fascia, aero body work, 19in wheels, and quad -tip exhaust. On the inside you will be greeted by a full digital 12.3 gauge cluster, 10.25in infotainment system, and special; sport seats. Under the hood is a 2.5L inline-4 that produces 290HP & is mated to an 8-speed DCT. Is the 2021 Hyundai Sonata N Line a BETTER sport sedan than a Kia K5 GT?

    ANYONE LOOKING AT BUYING‼️‼️i just bought my N-Line 2 days ago.. and i completely love it. it WILL surprise you. something he didn't detail in the review is the interior ambient lighting. the chrome that runs all along the interior has lights under it, and the color and brightness is adjustable on the infotainment screen. it’s really nice at night. enjoy y’all

    This is a very attractive car. But for relatively the same $, I'll buy a Civic Si, or a Honda Accord 2.0t loaded. At trade-in, in five years, I'm 100% sure I'll get better money for a Honda (also Toyota, or Mazda).

    First time I smashed that gas pedal in my N Line I yelled, "On throttle. Here we go!" My wife looked at me like I lost my mind.

    I've had my 2021 sonata n line for about 3 weeks and, I think it's an amazing car for the money. The power and acceleration you get even at higher speeds are simply outstanding.

    K5 GT looks marginally better on the front and back but I still think the Sonata looks quite good in this trim, especially from the side. The interior styling and quality is what sold me on the N-Line though. The seats are MUCH nicer. Better bolstering and better use of materials (Napa leather and micro suede vs synthetic leather on the K5). The addition of the digital gauges and the ambient lighting make it feel much more upmarket than the K5, too

    Your first review of this N Line helped me decide to get one. Best all around car I've ever had. Speed, comfort, agility, features... you won't find another car that offers all of this at this price.

    I own one glowing yellow 2021 Sonata N-line for close to one month. I specially love this color as it showcases the red rear end tail light, and the gloss black front grille as well as the side mirrors. As far performance is concerned, this car feels damn good when you are on throttle, specially when accelerate right after the signal light turns green to give you a break from the monotonous city driving. You will get the feeling that you are being pushed back to the seat a bit which definitely feels good. You will have no problem whatsoever when merging in a highway or overtaking a slower car with this 290hp engine at your disposal. In a nutshell, if you are a car enthusiast who loves to get some excitement in your daily commute, Sonata N-line should definitely be under your consideration in this price segment.

    I got mine back in May. 2021 N-Line in the Stormy Sea color (dark blue). It was because of your previous review of the N-Line,Joe, that I test drove and purchased mine! My wife even purchased a black '21 Hyundai Elantra SEL as well! We could not be happier and I thank you for your in depth and informative reviews. It really helped my wife and I with our decision to purchase. To anyone thinking of purchasing an N-Line, I think you will like it. It reminds me of a "sleeper" car. You look at it and think " thats a sporty and sleek family sedan".......then that turbo kicks in and she is deceptively fast! I absolutely love mine. Thanks again Joe and Lori, keep up the awesome work!
