The Korean automaker presented at Los Angeles Auto Show its latest version of Sonata, powered by a 198- horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with a class-leading 35 miles per gallon highway. Hyundai also mentioned that it would utilize a turbocharged and direct-injected four in place of a V6 offering, and a hybrid version of the Sonata that utilizes technologically advanced lithium polymer batteries. But we haven’t heard much about the turbo or hybrid models post-LA, until now.
2011 Sonata Turbo and Hybrid will make their grand entrance at the 2010 New York Auto Show. With three distinct variants of the Sonata and a price of entry under $20,000, Hyundai could stand to gain quite a bit of street cred (and market share) in the hyper-competitive midsize segment. Stay tuned for maore details after the NY Auto Show.
