Used 2022 Hyundai Sonata for Sale near Ontario

How much does the 2022 Hyundai Sonata cost?

Prices have softened 11.06% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 139 listings available, which gives you a reasonable amount of choice if you're comparing trims and prices.

Is the 2022 Hyundai Sonata a good car?

Yes — with a 4.75/5 user rating and an 8/10 expert rating, the 2022 Hyundai Sonata makes a strong case for itself. The standout strength is Cost effectiveness at 10/10.

The Sonata’s appeal comes from its strong value, quality feel, and broader personality than many midsize sedans. It is positioned as a practical family car, but it also offers a surprisingly sporty N Line variant if you want something with more character. That makes it a good fit if you want a sedan that feels a little different from the usual mainstream choices without giving up everyday usefulness.

Only 30.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so the market still rewards careful shopping.

Is the 2022 Hyundai Sonata reliable?

Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Sonata’s reliability case is helped by its comprehensive standard equipment and the fact that its systems worked quietly and without false alarms during testing. The performance side is straightforward rather than complicated: the base 2.5-litre four-cylinder is described as calm and uncomplaining, while the turbocharged 1.6-litre is also presented as adequate. Hyundai also backs the car with a five-year or 100,000 kilometre powertrain warranty.

If you buy used, the main long-term ownership risk is making sure the car has been maintained properly, especially on higher-output or more heavily equipped trims.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Hyundai Sonata?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Preferred trim gives you the essentials, but the higher trims add meaningful comfort and convenience upgrades. The N Line stands apart with a more aggressive look and sport-focused cabin details.
• Powertrain: The Preferred uses a 2.5-litre four-cylinder, while Sport and Luxury use a turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder. The N Line gets a turbocharged 2.5-litre four-cylinder with a wet dual-clutch automatic transmission and sport suspension.
• Safety package: Every trim gets a broad suite that includes forward collision avoidance assist with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, driver-attention warning, automatic high-beam headlights, rearview monitor, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist, rear cross-traffic alert, Rear Occupant Alert, and Safe Exit Warning. Highway Driving Assist lane-centring assistance and a blind-spot view monitor are standard on N Line and Ultimate Hybrid, so lower trims miss those features.
• Infotainment: Base SE versions get an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and six speakers. Sport adds SiriusXM and BlueLink connected services, while N Line and Ultimate Hybrid move up to a 10.25-inch touchscreen with navigation and wireless charging.
• Fuel efficiency: Combined fuel consumption ranges from 7.7 L/100 km on the lower trims to 8.8 L/100 km for the N Line.

Which 2022 Hyundai Sonata trim should I buy?

The 2022 Hyundai Sonata is offered in 4 trim levels: Preferred, Sport, Luxury, and N Line.

Here's the short version:

• Preferred: This is the value play if you want the lowest entry point and the core Sonata experience. You still get heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, and the full safety suite, so it covers the basics well.
• Sport: This trim adds a panoramic sunroof, dual automatic climate control, satellite radio, and larger wheels. It is the one to consider if you want a more upscale feel without jumping all the way to the top.
• Luxury: This is the best-value trim if comfort matters most. Leather seats, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and the Bose audio system make it the most appealing all-rounder for many shoppers.
• N Line: Choose this if you want the most distinctive Sonata. It adds the 290-hp turbocharged 2.5-litre engine, sport suspension, wet dual-clutch automatic transmission, unique styling, and extra tech such as Highway Drive Assist and a 12.3-inch gauge display.

The safety package is strong across the range, but Highway Driving Assist lane-centring assistance and the blind-spot view monitor are reserved for N Line and Ultimate Hybrid.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Hyundai Sonata?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully and move quickly on well-priced examples.

• Deal availability: 30.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 139 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.06% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $21,705 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Hyundai Sonata's resale value?

The current average of $22,310 CAD sits slightly below last year's $25,086 CAD.

That price movement suggests the Sonata has become more accessible for used buyers, which can make it easier to attract interest if you decide to sell later. A softer market can also mean you may need to price competitively to stand out, especially if similar listings are plentiful. Even so, the model’s strong value proposition and broad equipment list should help it remain appealing to shoppers looking for a well-equipped midsize sedan.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.75/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Hyundai Sonata safe?

The 2022 Hyundai Sonata earns five-star ratings for overall crash protection from NHTSA, with four-star ratings for front crash protection and five-star ratings for side crash protection and rollover resistance. It also earns top Good ratings in all six IIHS crash tests.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The Sonata comes standard with a comprehensive safety package that includes forward collision avoidance assist with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, driver-attention warning, automatic high-beam headlights, rearview monitor, blind-spot collision-avoidance assist, rear cross-traffic alert, Rear Occupant Alert, and Safe Exit Warning. Highway Driving Assist lane-centring assistance and a blind-spot view monitor are standard on N Line and Ultimate Hybrid.

One caveat is that IIHS crash avoidance and mitigation testing gave the Sonata with LED reflector headlights a Marginal rating on most trims, while the N Line and Ultimate Hybrid with LED projector headlights earned a Good rating.

Should I buy a 2022 Hyundai Sonata or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 30.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.06% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It combines strong value, quality feel, and a sporty N Line option.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $19,147 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $22,310 CAD average.
• It is a rare sport sedan that blends performance with practicality.

The bottom line: If you want the better-balanced used Sonata, the 2022 is the stronger pick thanks to its value, equipment, and broad trim range. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2021 is worth a look, especially if you want a more performance-focused take on the Sonata formula.
