An outstanding car keeps getting better
Performance. Sophisticated styling. Class-leading interior space and exceptional cargo space. Among the best in standard safety features. These are just some of the considerations that went into creating the 2007 Sonata. Sonata GL, Sonata GL V6 and Sonata GLS - three trim levels that all offer an outstanding package of standard features at a lot less than you'd expect to pay. And for 2007, a new I4 option package on the GLS Sonata - giving you a premium sedan with the option of a powerful, fuel-efficient 4-cylinder engine.
It truly is a Hyundai like you've never seen before, and in its first model year, it captured these awards and accolades. More...
