    Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

    EPA MPG: 42 mpg

    RECALL ALERT:
    There are 5 recalls on this vehicle. Learn More.

    First Take

    We've just started testing the 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, and so far it's proving to be a welcome addition to our test fleet. The regular Sonata bowed in its current iteration back in the summer of 2014, but it took a year for Hyundai to phase in the hybrid. It's good they took their time because the previous-generation Sonata Hybrid, which we tested in 2011, was pretty much a flop, with fuel economy barely better than the conventional version and annoyingly rough transitions between electric and gasoline propulsion.
