The 2009 Sonata features an all-new interior, enhanced suspensions and revised powertrains boasting both improved fuel economy and horsepower.

The Sonata combines refined design, proven dependability, spirited performance and an extensive list of standard features to increase its appeal to a broader range of customers.

For 2009, Sonata raises the bar for value with new features ranging from standard USB/iPod auxiliary inputs to available navigation and sport-tuned suspension.

The 2009 Sonata debuts Hyundai's second-generation Theta four-cylinder engine, which delivers more horsepower and quicker acceleration, while also improving fuel economy. Theta II is rated at 175 horsepower and 168 lb.-ft. of torque.

Sonata's 3.3-liter V6 engine has also been improved for more performance and efficiency. It now pumps out 15 more horsepower and three more lb.-ft. of torque (249 horsepower and 229 lb.-ft. of torque).

The pleasant surprises continue inside where Hyundai designers have thoroughly revamped the cockpit to create the ambiance of an upscale, premium sedan. The sophisticated look is achieved thanks to a completely new center console and instrument panel, which borrows design cues and rich materials from the premium Hyundai Veracruz.
