Say hello to the 2020 Hyundai Sonata—the coolest sports sedan on the block. With a low and wide stance, this coupe is always eager to hit the streets and flex the power resting under its hood. Expect head-turns with chrome accents that add a refined touch of style. Underneath the chrome touches, hidden lights help your sedan light up the streets during every drive.
From the outside design alone, it’s easy to see how the 2020 Hyundai Sonata was named the Redesign of the Year by ALG.
Step inside, and you’ll experience a quick and sporty drive wherever you cruise. You’ll also find plenty of tech features inside to ensure the fun never ends for your drives.
To see how this sporty sedan stacks up against others in its class, let’s take a look at the Hyundai Sonata vs Nissan Altima to see which comes out on top.
If the sleek design of the Hyundai coupe already has your attention, visit us as Brandon Hyundai to test drive the 2020 Hyundai Sonata.
When you push your foot on the 2020 Hyundai Sonata’s gas pedal, it’s always an exhilarating and memorable experience with one of two motors powering the drive.
Your base motor is a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. With 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft torque, every ride down the I-4 is filled with action. Plus, with EPA-estimated 38-highway mpg, you’ll experience sporty rides without giving up fuel economy.
When you’re ready for more power, the available 1.6L Turbo 4-cylinder motor packs 180 horsepower and 195 lb-ft torque starting at 1,500 RPM. You’ll feel that power everywhere—whether it’s bolting from a stoplight in Tampa, or dominating I-75 and passing other drivers with ease. You’re also not losing out on fuel economy with an EPA-estimated 36-highway mpg keeping your trips to the fuel station at a minimum.
Take a ride in the 2020 Nissan Altima, and the standard 2.5L 4-cylinder motor brings 188 horsepower and 180 lb-ft torque to all your rides.
When it comes to the drive, the 2020 Hyundai Sonata packs more torque at low RPMs for rapid acceleration on all roads you travel—that’s what gives the 2020 Hyundai Sonata a win in this category.
Enter the 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and you’ll find ample space that leads to endless comfort and convenience. 104.4 cubic feet of passenger volume allows everyone to kick back and stretch out their legs for any ride. Meanwhile, 16 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats up allows you to store golf clubs, groceries, luggage, backpacks, and anything else you’ll ever need for the ride.
For your seating, relax with standard premium cloth keeping you comfortable for the full ride. You can also choose available leather seating surfaces if you’re in the mood for upscale vibes.
When you’re ready to connect to your media, you’ll have a standard 8-inch touchscreen loaded with HD Radio™ and Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ for playing the tunes you want with ultra-crisp audio—especially on the available Bose® Premium audio with 12 speakers. Want navigation thrown into the mix? Opt for the available 10.25-inch display, and you’ll have instant access to alternate routes to help you stay a step ahead of traffic and never-again arrive late to the office.
Opt for available ambient lighting for soft glows in your cabin anytime the sun goes down. You’ll even choose from 64 available colors to make sure the mood is always right, whether it’s an invigorating green, a soothing blue, or something in between.
By comparison, step inside the 2020 Nissan Altima, and you’ll also get your choice between cloth or available leather-trimmed seats. For your passenger volume, 98 cubic feet allows everyone to fit inside. Meanwhile, 15.4 cubic feet of cargo room is enough space for all your grocery runs.
When it’s time to connect to your media, the NissanConnect® touchscreen maxes out at 8 inches for easy viewing. When the night rolls around, accent lighting is also available, but not in 64 colors.
For interior design, the winner is the 2020 Hyundai Sonata. You’re getting 6.4 cubic feet more space for your passengers to relax during the ride. Plus, 0.6 more cubic feet of space makes a huge difference during times like Black Friday shopping where every inch of room counts. 10.25 inches of infotainment screen is massive—and ensures you’ll never click the wrong app when you’re cruising down a rocky road. With so much luxury and fun, you can see how the 2020 Hyundai Sonata won the 2019 Good Design Award from the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and the Best Auto Tech Award from KBB.
Anywhere you cruise in the 2020 Hyundai Sonata, you’ll have standard driver-assists looking out for you the entire time.
With Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped), your Hyundai looks out for cars and pedestrians ahead—and sends you warnings when an accident is imminent. If you don’t react, automatic braking occurs to help you avoid fender benders.
Stay in your lane with standard Lane Keeping Assist. The moment you veer outside the lines without a signal, you’ll get alerts and corrective steering helping you re-center before a side-collision happens. Other standard driver assists include Lane Following Assist, Driver Attention Warning, Smart Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Rear Occupant Alert, and High Beam Assist.
When you ride in the 2020 Nissan Altima, Intelligent Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Intelligent Driver Alert are standard. Meanwhile, Lane Departure Warning with Intelligent Lane Intervention and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection are available.
For this round, the 2020 Hyundai Sonata wins with more standard driver-assist tools. Plus, features like Lane Departure warning do wonders for helping you stay safe during your rides.
