Summary
The base Sonata carries a base price of just $13,804; with automatic transmission it's $14,614. The high-line GLS, which includes the V6 and automatic, a full complement of power accessories, gas-pressure shock absorbers, alloy wheels with high-performance tires and upgraded sound system, is just $17,804. If you add a package consisting of a CD player, power sunroof, leather and ABS, and then you tack on floormats and the $405 destination charge, you're still at only $20,756. That's for an absolutely fully equipped midsize sedan with a generously sized interior, big trunk, great ride and handling, decent performance and a fuel economy rating of well over 20 mpg on the highway. No matter how you cut and slice any of those prices, the Sonata, in either base form or as a fully loaded GLS, is a heck of a deal. So if you're looking for sedan value for your hard-earned bucks, you'll have to do quite a bit of shopping to beat the Hyundai Sonata.
