Why it stands out

The 2016 Hyundai Sonata stands out as a midsize sedan that was built to feel more upscale and better equipped than its price might suggest. In the seventh-generation Sonata’s run, Hyundai positioned it as a tech-forward, efficient car with an affordable price tag, and by 2016 the hybrid had joined the lineup. That combination of generous equipment, comfort, and value is a big part of its appeal, especially for buyers who want a practical family sedan without paying premium-brand money.

For 2016, the Sonata offered a 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine with 185 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, while the turbocharged 2.5-litre four in the 2.0T and 2.0T Ultimate made 245 horsepower and 260 pound-feet. The hybrid paired a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with a 38 kW permanent magnet electric motor for 193 system horsepower, and it could burn as little as 2.4 litres-equivalent per 100 kilometres and up to 43 kilometres of fully electric range. Standard equipment was generous, with a tiny 3.5-inch LCD screen, alloy wheels, Bluetooth, and a tilt-and-telescope wheel, while available features included leather upholstery, navigation, blind spot monitoring, and later an optional 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The Sonata’s strengths are clear: it is comfortable, well equipped, and good value on the used market. Its drawbacks are just as important to note, though. This generation is affected by engine trouble tied to the Theta II family and by theft vulnerability, and those issues are major considerations for used buyers. Even so, for shoppers who prioritise features and affordability, the 2016 Sonata remains an appealing choice.
