Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 234-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Other sedans I have owned always left something to be desired in the back seat. Not the Sonata. With so much rear space you really feel like you are in a full sized car! Plus being a big guy has always cramped my rear passengers until now! see full Hyundai Sonata review
