2001 Hyundai Sonata GLX review from North America
"Great value in a very comfortable, trouble free car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The battery has been replaced twice.
General comments?
This car is a very comfortable car, even for my husband who is 6ft 4in and drives it often.
The 170 hp engine is not over powering, but is adequate for every day driving. The heated leather seats are very comfortable and the overall fit and finish is excellent. There are no rattles and I have had no major repairs, except for the 2 batteries which is probably due to the short 2km I drive to work. The trunk, with the rear seats folded down, has enormous storage capacity for a sedan. This car has been trouble free and I am very happy with it.
