2020 Hyundai Sonata: Solid step forward

The Sonata, redesigned for the 2020 model year, features a new design language and technology for Hyundai's midsize sedan. The Sonata grows in nearly every dimension. The wheelbase is about 1.5 inches longer than the outgoing model, while the overall length grows an inch and three-quarters. A 1.6-liter turbo generates 180 hp and 195 pound-feet of torque, while the 2.5-liter direct-injection power plant cranks out 191 hp and 181 pound-feet. Both engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Here's a roundup of snippets of Sonata reviews from the automotive media.
