Also impressed with all of the tech, great fuel economy, back seat room for adults and car seats, and a usable trunk size, Edmunds.com says that it could be "this year's can't-miss hybrid."

Autoguide went for a long highway drive in the new Sonata Hybrid. They found that the car came witin 2 mpg of the posted estimate, which they found impressive, especially considering that they weren't taking it easy on the acceleration or speed. They found the ride comfort outstanding, even over bad midwest roads. And after over 500 miles straight of driving, he said that the seats were extremely comfortable and made for long-haul driving. After "sitting behind himself, he said his 6'4" frame had enough headroom in the front, though it was slightly tight in the back; legroom was good in both cases. They commented that acceleration power is good. As with all Hyundais, it has a lot of tech but it is all easy to use. In summation, he says if you want a stylish sedan with all-day comfort, the Sonata Hybrid is hard to beat.
