The first thing you will notice about the Sonata is

the styling. The Sonata design gets its inspiration

from the fluid energy expressed in nature. This

design translates into strong yet sophisticated

quality, delivering a package that is simply

breathtaking. With a gently undulating silhouette

and distinctive character lines – this is automotive

design at its best. As with all successful design

concepts – nothing is unnecessary. Whether you

are simply looking, touching or driving, you know

you are in the presence of something truly unique.

INSPIRED BY NATURE

wrap around led rear lights

The rear of the Sonata features integrated functionality and styling with the rear wrap around LED lights. Where the side meets the rear, safety meets style. Energy-saving LED illumination ensures increased visibility whether it is day or night.

led positioning & Fog lights

Extra visibility means extra safety. With the LED positioning and fog lights, you can be sure that your path is always clear, regardless of the external conditions. The revised fog light design has been blended into the curves of the bodywork for that extra touch of style.

led outside mirror repeaters

To enhance visibility when turning, the LED lamps on the wing mirrors have been smoothly integrated into the design to illuminate when activated.

STREAM OF THOUGHT

The Sonata manages to express dynamic motion with no effort. The curvaceous outline of the Sonata is sleek and compelling, unlike any other sedan on the road. For drivers considering the Sonata, it is just a matter of getting behind the wheel and experiencing Hyundai’s new thinking brought to life.

The Elite model has 18” alloy rims with 225/45 R tyres, giving a much cleaner, larger and sportier appearance to the overall look of the Sonata. The Sonata comes standard with a full size spare wheel for convenience.

sIGNATURe GRIlle

A distinctively large, radiator grille in chrome and high gloss black exudes an aggressive yet refined image, further enhancing the fluidic design.

heAdlAmps

The xenon headlamps stimulate the natural light for less eye fatigue and sharper visibility on the road ahead. The headlamp design is sleeker and integrates harmoniously into the front of the Sonata.

RAIN seNsORs

SUPERVISION CLUSTERSThe all new supervision cluster gives the driver of the Sonata all the information needed at a glance. Its highly visible blue fluorescent display is easy to read and simple to navigate.

ENGINE START/STOPThe start/stop system allows you to turn the engine on and off with a push of the button. Convenience and luxury every time you start the engine.

CENTRE CONSOLEThe new Sonata centre console features the best in driving and passenger comfort, including an advanced air and heating system with the latest audio gadgets. Interior design which combines thrilling agility on one hand and premium styling on the other.

PADDLE SHIFTThe paddle shift controls in the Sonata are conveniently located behind the steering wheel, giving you control of your driving experience. Through electronic transmission you are able to shift up and down with fingertip control – driving accuracy at its best.

FEEL AT HOME ON THE ROAD

The Sonata’s 8 way power adjustable driver’s seat allows you to find 8 ways to perfect comfort. Whether it is the rear air ventilation to keep your passengers perfectly cool or the heated seats for those chilly days, the Sonata interior is filled with smart features that make you feel at home.

8-way power adjustable seatWhen you get behind the wheel of your new Sonata, your seating comfort is of the utmost importance.

rear aIr VeNtIlatIoNFor passengers in the rear of the Sonata, the rear air ventilation systems are fully adjustable so that they can alter the air flow as required.

PURE TECHNOLOGY

The Sonata embodies Hyundai’s commitment to protecting the environment. At 141 grams per kilogram of carbon dioxide, its CO² emission levels match those of a family hatchback, as does its fuel economy. On the dashboard is an ECO Drive indicator, a device that reminds you to adopt more fuel-efficient economical driving habits. Meanwhile, an efficient catalytic converter reduces air pollution by converting harmful emissions into harmless ones. And because a lighter car burns less fuel, lightweight materials are used throughout its construction.

FOR THE DRIVE

Never miss another shift. The 6-speed automatic transmission, together with the secure luxurious feel of the gear shift means absolute driving pleasure with minimal effort.

THETa II 2.4 GDi ENGINE

Hyundai’s new Theta II 2.4 GDi engine provides measured and powerful per formance. This engine emits low emissions and has reduced fuel consumption thanks to the lowered weight. This new engine also features minimised vibration, particularly when idling and accelerating.

DUaL CVVT

Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT) allows engine intake and the exhaust valve to be controlled independently, minimising emissions and offering substantial gains in power. Paired with a Sonata Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine, they optimise the air intake and boost torque, allowing the engine to be stingy with fuel but not with performance.

6 - AIRBAGS

The Sonata’s advanced airbag technology brings increased safety on the roads. With a total of 6 built-in airbags, including full length curtain airbags, driver airbag, passenger airbag and side airbags, you are ensured of total protection in the Sonata.

FRONT & REAR PARK SENSORSThe Sonata yet again enhances your safety with the front and rear park sensors – with a touch of added convenience for fitting into those tight parking spaces. When activated in reverse gear, the system alerts the driver to the proximity of obstructions behind the vehicle.

ANTI-lOcK BRAKING SySTEm (ABS)The Anti-Locking Braking System (ABS) helps to prevent the possibility of your wheels locking up under hard braking conditions, rapidly pulsing the brakes to help you retain steering control as you come to a stop.

Electronic stability control ESCESC detects unusual movements caused by

sudden braking or swerving. Sensing wheel

speed and input from the driver pedals, it

regulates engine torque and braking force so that

you maintain control of the vehicle.

REASSURANCE DESIGNED IN

When it comes to maximising dr iv ing confidence, the ultimate is a combination of both active and passive safety features. The Sonata del ivers on both. With a comprehensive airbag system to protect the driver and passengers, as well as the hot stamping method used in the car’s construction process, the Sonata provides complete safety in the case of a collision. Thanks to all this great safety technology and a whole host of modern features, the Sonata is definitely a partner in transport that you can trust.
