Description and reviews: "Hyundai Sonata" of the sixth generation

If you look at the sales statistics, you can say with certainty that the Hyundai Sonata in Moscow is the most popular foreign car in its class. And this trend is observed not only in the capital, but also far beyond its borders. And just over 2 years ago a new, sixth generation of legendary business-class cars appeared on the world market . Now the updated "Sonata", in addition to a different design and interior design, received a small YF prefix in the documentation. This year, the novelty was also subjected to a small restyling. But how positively influenced by this update on the popularity of cars in Russia?

Design

As the driver's testimonies assure, "Hyundai Sonata-6" is framed according to the latest fashion squeak. "Her exterior is fully in line with the latest global trends." "The front of the new product received a different form of grille." "Thanks to its trapezoidal design, the novelty has become more recognizable on Russian roads!" So the driver's reviews sound. "Hyundai Sonata" does not cease to amaze its customers. The new combined form of the main light headlights makes the car more unique, but at the same time its silhouette still remains recognizable. By the way, this combination of headlights is very popular among the world's automakers and is used almost on every business class car. The body lines in the lateral and rear parts almost did not change, and its dimensions remained virtually untouched.

Interior. Description and reviews

"Hyundai Sonata" has changed significantly and inside. The main feature, or rather, a highlight in the interior was the game on the contrasts. By this technique means a successful combination of completely different tones of decoration. Above, the ceiling casing is lighter, smoothly shifting to the front panel. On the contrary, on the other hand, the material of dark tones is used. This experiment turned out to be a success, and now the interior design has become more original. By the way, as noted by the driver's reviews, "Hyundai Sonata" does not put pressure on his eyes with his sharp transition from black to white in the interior. Unlike previous generations, the new has been equipped with much more ergonomic and comfortable seats, and this applies not only to the front row. The space for the feet of the rear passengers is more than enough, so the concept of a close interior is not applicable to the sixth generation of the Sonata.

Specifications

In our market, the novelty will be supplied in two engine variants. Among them, the basic is a two-liter petrol unit with a capacity of 150 horsepower. The older, 2.4-liter engine, has a power of 178 horsepower. The motors are aggregated with two transmissions to choose from. It can be both MKPP and automatic transmission for an equal number of stages (there are 6 of them). It is impossible not to say about the fuel consumption. A new generation of sedans consumes about 8-9 liters of gasoline per "hundred" in a mixed cycle. Given the working volume of the cylinders, this is quite an acceptable indicator.

"Hyundai Sonata": price

2013 model range of cars costs from 999 thousand to 1 million 165 thousand rubles.
