2026 Hyundai Sonata
2026 Hyundai
SONATA
As some automobile manufacturers pare down their sedan lineups – or eliminate them altogether – Hyundai continues to make the Sonata a compelling entrant in the midsized four-door segment. You can call it a family sedan or a comfortable commuter: either way, the Sonata is a winner for its blend of features, plushness for the price point, and overall value, especially considering that it’s covered by America’s Best Warranty (10 years/100,000 miles of powertrain protection). We cover the gas-only version on this page, but there’s also a gas-electric Sonata Hybrid, which reaches fuel economy as high as 56 miles per gallon. The 2026 lineup for the conventional Sonata spans a simplified three trims, including the debuting SEL Sport. Their main features are listed below.
