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

I wanted to test the 150 mph speedometer after buying the car. At 145 mph I let off the accelerator. I am amazed that a 4 cylinder engine is able to push the vehicle so swiftly. see full Hyundai Sonata review
