Buying Advice

For 2023, we would like to recommend the SEL Trim as it an enhanced version of the base trim. For the added price, you get 17-inch wheels, Sportier styling cues, Power-adjustable driver's seat, Heated front seats, Dual-zone automatic climate control, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Navigation system, Bluelink connected services, a Satellite radio, and much more. We would also recommend getting the available Convenience package as it makes using the Sonata on a daily basis much easier. We particularly liked the Curated Silver, Hampton Gray, and Hyper White exterior paint options as they give the Sonata a more eccentric feel.
