I have owned this vehicle since 2011 and it has been very reliable and dependable. I get an estimated 40 mpg and the car handles well. The only unplanned maintenance I had was through a random act, in which a rock ricocheted under the engine and put a hole in the condenser. The shift lock did go out like a year ago, causing my car to not to be able to switch gears, but this in a known flaw for this vehicle. I like the size, and feel of the vehicle, but wish my interior was darker. I have a very light beige interior that seems to showcase every stain. The vehicle does come equipped with the option for satellite radio and boost an usb port in the center console, and a audio jack. There are two charging ports in the vehicle, but you cannot charge a electronic device if the car is not running, The trunk has more than ample space for luggage and such, and the seats can be laid down for additional room. The driver's seat has buttons to control to adjusting the seat, but they have a tendency to fall off easily.

I am very impressed with the Hyundai Sonata. This vehicle is one of the most comfortable ones that I have ever owned. The trim work and interior is exceptional, while the exterior (at least in black) looks very sharp. With over 183,000 miles on the car, I drove 10 hours with no issues other than to fill up air in the tire. Minor things that are probably addressed in later models years, like no seat warmer, is one of the few things that I am missing.
