2007 Hyundai Sonata LX review from North America

The car is unstable while doing 68 with slight gust in the area. This problem never existed with my AE101 Corolla. The engine is not as powerful as other variable valve timing alternatives, such as the i-vtecs. Fuel economy is never achieved on 31 mpg on highway as claimed, for which I was struggling to keep it above 30mpg on the trip computer. Cruise control does not keep the speed consistant, when you go uphill the speed would go down 2-3 mph and never come back up; on downhills the speed would go up and never decline.

This car has got everything that you can deem 'useful' nowadays. The problem is that every function it provides do not excel as others would do. The design on the speedo dials are like 80s space-age toys and the liqueur wood effect does not quite couple with the upholstery on the rest of the control console. Soft suspension is a useful feature for the bumpy road on some poorly maintained freeways, but you can never imagine that they are modern. If you want to improve the car's high speed performance, the bodykit is highly recommended (I'm a person who likes to keep everything original, but the front axle is losing grip doing 75mph on highway 101). The cruising function is a night touch, but I'd say a 10 years old mercedes e-class has more precision.
