At the 2005 Detroit Auto Show, Hyundai introduced its fifth-generation Hyundai Sonata, a vehicle whose looks were not just leagues nicer than its predecessor’s, but which have withstood the test of time and are still lovely 13 years later.
The Hyundai Sonata stands out in a hotly contested class by being good at everything and bad at nothing. What do you need to know before you buy a Hyundai Sonata? Don’t worry, we’ll tell you everything right here in the Ultimate Buyer’s Guide.
If you want to get new features installed in your car, a trip to the dealer is a necessity (unless you’re driving a Tesla). Hyundai is removing that burden for 2015 Sonata owners by allowing them to upgrade their infotainment system to work with Android Auto with a quick download and a USB stick.
Have you ever wanted to work in a automobile factory? A lot of people do, apparently, and as car manufacturers ramp up production to meeting a steadily improving economy, the number of people vying for limited job slots is a telltale sign that we aren't out of the woods yet.
Two weeks ago we told you about a growing number of Hyundai Sonata owners who say their cars had a tendency to wander at highway speeds. Yesterday, Hyundai told us it has issued a service bulletin to fix those Sonatas.
The Hyundai Sonata is one of the best-selling cars in the United States and a touchstone for the Korean automaker's rise among consumers. Yet possibly thousands of the cars want to turn left, constantly — a problem Hyundai can't seem to fix.

The 2011 Sonata has been a smash hit for Hyundai, already selling about 100,000 copies and winning near-flawless praise from auto reviewers. Yet many owners are now turning into D.I.Y. greasemonkeys thanks to the world's weakest horn.
Many wonderful things hail from Alabama: Good barbecue. Funky soul music. In 2011, the Hyundai Sonata will join that list. America, say hello to crimson-colored, mid-size Korean luxury. Roll kimchi tide! (It looks better in person. Promise.)
Not content just to be the cheaper mid-size sedan on the market, the 2011 Hyundai Sonata, which debuted in Korea this morning, appears to be another vehicle from Hyundai ready to try and compete on more than just price.
These official renderings of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata are maddeningly hot. Why maddeningly? Because we've already seen photos of the KDM version and we know it won't look this cool. One more exaggeratedly awesome shot below the jump.
