2018 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid 1.jpg

I took a look at this photo gallery and I'd have to say it's mostly thumbs ups.  I have driven the last-gen Sonata as a rental.  I never liked its vanilla looks but I'll have to say that it was much better than I thought it would be.  This 2018 has some Fusion in it, some Cruze in it, and some Hyundai in it.  As much as I don't like short rear deck lids, I think this one is nicely proportioned to the car.  I still have some hangups over the very exposed, vertical grilles of newer Hyundais, Toyotas, etc.  The dash is nice, the seats look very comfortable and nicely stitched, the console is the right height, and the main IP cluster is clean and simple.  I like the symmetry of the temperature gauge and the fuel gauge.  I have seen the temp. gauge go away on some models as of late.  I don't like that one bit, so it's now sort of reassuring to see it.  I don't think I'd buy a vehicle without an actual temp. gauge.
