Planet Hyundai previews all-new 2018 Hyundai Sonata

GOLDEN, Colo., June 16, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Ever since it was initially released to the American market, the Hyundai Sonata nameplate has evoked images of stellar design quality, high tech innovation and subtle performance under the hood for drivers across the nation. The Sonata is set to return for the 2018 model year with new upgrades and features, and in preparation of its release, local dealership Planet Hyundai is giving consumers an inside look at what it will bring to the table.  

The first aspect drivers will notice about the 2018 Sonata is its new redesigned exterior. A new cascading grille will be introduced, as well as a lower-profile body style, slim taillights and LED headlights. This sleek and sweeping design houses a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine under the Sonata's hood, capable of producing 245 horsepower.  

Mechanically, the 2018 Sonata has been designed to give drivers an intuitive and smooth driving experience. It will feature a class-exclusive 8-speed transmission and reduced torsion bar stiffness, giving consumers a more responsive and reactive feel on the road. 

Inside, the 2018 Sonata will bring Android Auto® and Apple CarPlay® compatibility as standard features, allowing drivers to connect their compatible smartphones for hands-free navigation, communication and media streaming. More information on the 2018 Sonata can be found on the dealership's blog.
