2020 Hyundai Sonata One-Year Review: The Verdict
When we first took stock of our 2020 Hyundai Sonata Limited, we were impressed by its slick screens, comfortable leather seats, and stylish exterior. A year later, does the Sonata continue to charm, or has it lost its luster?
The midsize sedan rolled into our garage wearing a striking sapphire blue paint color and all the trimmings of the top-tier Limited model. At $34,630, our test car looks almost like a luxury sedan. Its plush caramel leather seats held up well over a year of passengers shuffling into seats, loading and unloading tons of baby gear, car seats installations, and baby spit-ups. The leather didn't pucker over time like it did on one of my previous long-term vehicles, which happened to be a luxury vehicle.
The Sonata's interior earned high praise for its uncluttered, elegant design. I enjoyed the easy-to-use 10.3-inch touchscreen, though I didn't fully appreciate how crisp it was until I downgraded to a duller 8.0-inch screen in my latest test car. The Sonata's infotainment screen complements the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a sharp Bose sound system sweetens the deal.
Passengers enjoyed the panoramic sunroof, but my favorite feature is Highway Driving Assist. A semi-autonomous system that combines adaptive cruise control and lane centering tech, this feature makes highway commuting less stressful. Although it has a tendency to steer the Sonata to the left side of the lane within the lane markings, it works better than some other systems we've tested. The 360-degree camera system is another winner, providing a clear view on all sides of the car and making it easy to park this long sedan. The only real tech hiccup we encountered was with the keyless entry system. It often wouldn't register when I touched the door and had the key in my pocket, forcing me to dig out the key and press the unlock button.
I had no illusions about the Sonata's performance going into the year. Our car features the Sonata's upgraded engine option: a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 180 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. As I quickly found out, it has just enough power for merging and passing other cars on the highway. Given how well it handles, I didn't mind its lack of power. What became more and more bothersome over time was how the power is delivered. There's a noticeable lag off the line when you jam the accelerator, so making quick maneuvers in traffic can get a little tricky.
No maintenance problems plagued our Sonata through the year, but the car visited the dealership twice for routine servicing. Our first service trip was free, but Hyundai charged $92.01 for our second visit. These costs will look quite different for typical retail customers of newer Sonatas, however. For retail vehicles sold on or after February 1, 2020, Hyundai offers complimentary maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Subaru also offers free maintenance, which is why our long-term 2017 Subaru Legacy cost $0 over three service visits and 20,460 miles. Free maintenance hasn't been the norm among the Sonata's competitors we've tested for a year, though. We spent $178.96 for two service visits on our long-term 2014 Mazda 6, which logged 24,316 miles, and $204.92 on two services for our 2013 Nissan Altima, which finished its run at 21,774 miles. Surprisingly, our long-term 2013 Honda Accord cost more than all of these sedans, racking up a bill of $209.42 for two service visits over a course of 22,856 miles.
Driving the Sonata for a year revealed more about the sedan's quality and maintenance costs, but what will the ownership experience look like over the course of five years? Our colleagues at IntelliChoice have some insights. Although we enjoy all the fancy features that come with the top Limited trim, it might not be the choice if you're looking to maximize value. The lower SE trim gets a Good value rating, but the other trims earn Mediocre or Average scores. The 2020 Sonata Limited has been deemed an Average value when taking into account depreciation, insurance, fuel costs, state fees, financing, maintenance, and repairs.
The Honda Accord remains our top pick for a midsize sedan because of its superior driving dynamics and its spacious, well-packaged interior. That said, our yearlong test confirms the Sonata is a solid pick. Among its rather conservative, plain-looking competitors, the Sonata stands out with its sharp design. More important, its tech-forward cabin continues to delight over time, speaking to its strong feature-per-dollar value. Its playful handling never gets old on a twisty road. For the practical-minded, free maintenance and a generous warranty make a strong case for the Sonata.

chevrolet bolt-euv Full OverviewWhen Chevrolet first introduced the Bolt EV, it sent shockwaves through the automotive industry as the first properly affordable mainstream electric car. More than half a decade later, Chevy has taken its award-winning hatchback (it took home the 2017 MotorTrend Car of the Year award) and spun off a second model, the stretched Bolt EUV crossover. We put the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV to the test to see if it could recapture the original's magic.Disappointing Dynamics At a glance the Bolt EUV doesn't look all that different from its smaller sibling, though it drives like an entirely different vehicle. It wears a similar grille and retains the Bolt EV's egglike styling. However, the 2022 Chevy Bolt EUV is 0.2 inch taller and wider and 6.3 inches longer than the regular Bolt. It's 90 pounds heavier, too.The Bolt EUV develops 200 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque, which it sends through the front wheels. Range is 247 miles on a full charge, 12 miles less than the Bolt EV. Chevy claims the Bolt EUV can regain 95 miles of range in 30 minutes depending on how much charge is already in its 65-kWh battery, which seemed to be a realistic assertion based on our lunchtime top-off after three laps of our Car of the Year test loop.Although the Bolt EUV's throttle mapping is good, it's easy to roast the tires at a whim, as its economy-minded rubber provides little grip off the line or even at moderate speeds if the driver dabs the accelerator too hard. We managed a 0-60-mph sprint of 6.7 seconds, which is quick but not as quick as the car feels from the driver's seat. Brake pedal tuning is excellent for an electric vehicle, as it feels completely natural and predictable. However, despite having a lot of the ingredients that make a car fun to drive, they don't come together in a cohesive way.On our test route, we found the Bolt EUV to have substandard body control and rough suspension tuning. In fact, the rear torsion bar banged so hard over train tracks that it sounded like something broke (it didn't). "This was one of the most poorly behaved vehicles driven over these surfaces," MotorTrend technical director Frank Markus said. "Lots of harshness, lots of bottoming and topping of the suspension." It's not all bad news, however, as the Chevy's steering stood out as one of the car's best aspects; it offered good engagement and ample feedback.On open stretches of highway and around town, the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV was a bit more pleasant due to its low-end torque and excellent battery-regeneration features. The EV offers one-pedal driving with the push of a button, allowing it to use regenerative braking. It's a remarkably intuitive system and brings the Bolt EUV down from speed with firm stopping power without jarring the vehicle's occupants. The neat regeneration paddle on the steering wheel is still present, allowing for firm but controlled deceleration that feeds electricity back into the battery. Although it's not the most entertaining car to drive on back roads, these features are as amusing as they are useful.Creature ComfortsThe interior, though an improvement over the original Bolt EV's cockpit in terms of materials and layout, still feels at least half a decade old. It also looks like it's at least half a generation older than the other electric crossovers it competes with. That's because of Chevy's pervasive use of hard plastics throughout the cabin, though our test car featured sweet-looking blue seats and door pocket inserts that made it appear a bit more premium. Ventilated seats were also a huge win, seeing as we conducted our testing under the hot desert sun.There's plenty of space up front with 44.3 inches of legroom, and most rear passengers will have room to stretch out a bit with 39.2 inches. Although the Bolt EUV is a wagonoid crossover, its trunk space is limited with just 16.3 cubic feet of capacity behind the rear seats. That's pitiful compared to the Ford Mustang Mach-E's 29.7 cubes. Chevy makes the storage area a bit more flexible with a removable floorboard, but it helps demonstrate this vehicle is more of a spruced-up hatchback than a full-on crossover.Is the Bolt EUV Safe?Although the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV isn't the sleekest package, it comes equipped with an impressive suite of driver assistance features, including automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keeping assist with lane departure warning, following distance indicator, automatic high-beams, and front pedestrian braking.GM's Super Cruise semi-autonomous system, an available feature on the Bolt EUV, came equipped on our test car. It's the first Chevy to offer this system; the package costs $2,200 and adds hands-free driving on roads included within GM's software. We've been impressed with Super Cruise before, and it continues to work exceptionally well on the Bolt EUV. The car kept its place in the lane without error so long as there were lines on either side of the vehicle, and it controlled its speed well and hustled up the hills on our test route without slowing down. Buyers shopping for a mainstream EV with a system that bests Tesla's Autopilot may want to consider purchasing the Bolt EUV with Super Cruise.Tech TalkChevrolet did a great job integrating the 10.2-inch infotainment display into the center stack. The Infotainment 3 Plus with Navigation is easy to operate and quick to respond to inputs. It isn't standard; however, it comes as part of the $2,495 Sun and Sound package, which also adds a Bose seven-speaker audio system and a sunroof.The front USB ports are difficult to access; they're wedged deep in the cellphone cubby. It's tough to dig a mobile device out of the compartment, too, leading to some awkward maneuvering in the cabin when it's time to hop out of the car. There isn't much going on in terms of tech in the back seat; passengers have access to just one USB-A and one USB-C port.Pricing and ValueAt an as-tested price of $43,685, this 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Premier jolted us with sticker shock. That's $5,190 more than the Premier trim package and $9,690 above the EUV's $33,995 base price. Chevy is asking a lot of money for a new model that feels a lot more like a refreshed 5-year-old car, but we concede the entry-level model represents a much better deal than the example we evaluated here.Simply put, where the Chevy Bolt once stood out as an isolated example of a well-executed and affordable EV, the EUV model lacks the polish we now expect from an electric car. During our SUV of the Year testing, the Bolt EUV had below-average range compared to the other EVs we tested, and our judges were unimpressed by its handling and ride composition. Prospective buyers might want to opt for a lesser trim level to improve the bang-for-buck ratio.The VerdictChevrolet should have taken extra measures to button up this new model, a vehicle that represents the company's next step toward total electrification. The 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV would have been a spectacular car five years ago, but EVs have progressed so much that this represents a mid-segment offering at best. For many, it will deliver ample capability for daily driving, but shoppers should consider other "every-person" electric crossovers such as the Ford Mustang Mach-E and Volkswagen ID4, as well, for more modern approaches to mainstream EVs.Looks good!

Out of the 8.9 million barrels of gasoline consumed daily in the U.S. on average, only 1.8 million gallons, or approximately 20 percent, actually propel an internal combustion vehicle forward. The other 80 percent is wasted on heat and parasitic auxiliary components that draw away energy. As the world begins its shift to EV proliferation, the good news is electric vehicles are far more energy efficient on the road.A new set of graphics from Yale Climate Connections makes visualizing the efficiency gains of an EV over an ICE vehicle straightforward. Using data from fueleconomy.gov and the U.S. Energy Information Administration, these graphics break down the energy waste in your typical gas-powered car.The vast majority of energy wasted in an ICE vehicle is through the heat the engine produces, which you can literally feel radiating from under the hood. About 5 percent is lost through parasitic engine components including the cooling system, which draws on the engine's own energy to help cool it down, about 4 percent is lost through the mechanical friction of the drivetrain and transmission components, and another 2 percent could be lost to auxiliary electrics like heated and powered seats, lights, and infotainment systems. In total, approximately 75 to 84 percent of the original gasoline's energy is lost.Compare that to only 31-35 percent energy loss in the average electric vehicle (average EV battery size is about 63 kWh), before factoring in potential recuperation from energy regeneration. Its losses can be broken down into approximately 10 percent of the source energy from the grid lost in the charging process, 18 percent lost to the drivetrain motor components, up to 4 percent lost to auxiliary components, and another 3 percent lost solely from powertrain cooling and other vehicle systems.Comparing the two, "the rough math pencils out to the energy equivalent of around 2 million barrels of gasoline per day, which is a substantial savings over the 8.9 million barrels currently used," according to Yale Climate Connections. But what about the power plants used to "refuel" those electric cars? Are they any more efficient than gas-powered cars? Well, yes. Much more efficient, in most cases."Even if the grid were entirely fueled by coal, 31% less energy would be needed to charge EVs than to fuel gasoline cars. If EVs were charged by natural gas, the total energy demand for highway transportation would fall by nearly half. Add in hydropower or other renewables, and the result gets even better, saving up to three-fourths of the energy currently used by gasoline-powered vehicles," according to Yale Climate Connections. Right now, all of that energy is getting lost mostly to heat. What a waste. For more facts and figures, read the full Yale Climate Connections report here.
Ford revealed the Mustang Mach-E in both form and, most important, name on a chilly California evening at an event held at the Hawthorne Municipal Airport in November 2019. The announcement was met, as one might expect, with mixed reaction. How could the Mustang—a gasoline-fired, V-8-packin', two-door pony car icon—suddenly be a four-door electric crossover SUV? Not only was that happening, but it would, Ford said, target Tesla's Model Y, which was designed literally next door.Although details were scarce at the time, Ford promised the Mach-E lineup would include a performance-oriented GT model to take the fight to the Model Y Performance. Which leads us directly to now and the execution of MotorTrend's first-ever comparison test of performance-oriented electric SUVs.Earlier this year we paired the Tesla Model Y against the Ford Mustang Mach-E, evaluating their driving characteristics, interior space, technology, charging times, infrastructure, and more. The Model Y took home the gold, but we acknowledged the Mach-E has much to recommend it. For this performance-oriented showdown, we focused on the same items but paid additional attention to the vehicles' handling and how fun to drive they are. As performance SUVs, the Model Y and Mach-E were built to deliver thrills and to be more emphatic and enthusiastic behind the wheel.As you can expect, our Model Y and Mach-E test cars are closely aligned in terms of performance and price. Both share the same basic setup of a single front and a single rear electric motor, single-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive. The Model Y Performance pumps out 456 horsepower and 497 lb-ft of torque from its dual-motor setup, while our Ford Mustang Mach-E GT makes 480 horsepower and 634 lb-ft, the latter number making it the torquiest Mustang of all. The Mustang's 260-mile range is shorter than the Tesla's 303 miles, but both should be enough for most buyers.At $69,800, the Ford is not inexpensive. Its starting price is just over $60K, but our vehicle came equipped with a plethora of options, including a $5,000 GT Performance Edition package that adds magnetic dampers, a torque increase from 600 lb-ft, 20-inch wheels with summer tires, and a few other bits. Our Model Y Performance checked out at $66,190, with the only option being its $1,000 Deep Blue Metallic paint.Mach-E GT vs. Model Y Performance: Behind the WheelAlthough the Mach-E has more muscle, the Model Y is faster in a straight line. It was close, though: The Ford hit 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, while the Tesla did it in 3.5 seconds. The delta was a bit more in the quarter mile, where the Mach-E crossed the line in 12.6 seconds at 100.6 mph and the Model Y in 12 seconds flat at 114.7 mph.The differences between the two were more evident on public roads. Using our Of The Year Loop that covers mountain roads, city streets, and highways, the Model Y felt considerably more eager. Smash its accelerator, and the Model Y Performance absolutely rockets away without any hesitation, never letting up until you do. And its quick, talkative steering means placing it precisely where you want in corners is a snap, with its responsive accelerator pedal making it similarly easy to rotate the nose. And the pinpoint primary controls and the way it piles on speed make highway passes more fun than they have a right to be.The Mach-E doesn't quite have the lightswitch acceleration of the Tesla; it doesn't deliver full power right off the bat, but it's no turtle, either. Indeed, once on the roll, the Ford feels fairly tireless until about 80 mph, when power delivery is significantly reduced. Alan Lau, MotorTrend road test analyst, also noticed the power bar in the instrument cluster drops noticeably when reaching this speed and that the Mach-E struggled to reach 120 mph at the test track. Even given how impressive the Tesla is, the Mach-E takes the lead when it comes to handling—with a caveat. The Ford is extremely well balanced, but occasionally it responds differently to driving into the exact same corner the exact same way, with either under- or oversteer, lacking the predictability we prefer in something we're going to drive hard. And the fact that a performance SUV that has 480 hp and 630 lb-ft fails to deliver consistent rip-snorting acceleration is disappointing.Between the two, the Mach-E GT rides with more refinement, offering a cushier experience and passing less of a given impact to occupants over broken pavement or, say, railroad crossings. Even when driving hard on twisty roads, the Ford is more settled and composed, with better control of its wheel and body motions. The Tesla is by no means unrefined or a poor handler—quite the opposite—it's just that the Ford is slightly ahead in these areas.Both SUVs come with drive modes that tailor the driving experience. But the Mach-E only allows the driver to shift between full modes—Whisper (eco), Engage (normal), and Unbridled (sport)—whereas the Tesla driver can individually alter its acceleration, steering, and braking settings. Acceleration choices are limited to Chill and Sport, but drivers can choose between Comfort, Standard, and Sport for the steering, and Creep, Roll, and Hold for the brakes in the Model Y. Since the Tesla allows the driver to mix and match as desired, there's likely a just-right setting for everyone.As with its suspension, the Mach-E's brakes feel stronger and more tuned for serious driving. Our Mach-E stopped from 0 to 60 mph in 105 feet compared to 113 feet in the Tesla. Those numbers might be close, but in real life they can make a big difference. During our road loop, the Ford felt like it had more grip and allowed us to brake later when approaching a corner.But it was the stronger, relentless acceleration of the Model Y, as well as the Tesla's consistency and predictability in its handling characteristics that made it our choice to drive on this day. We'd never turn down more miles in a Mach-E GT, of course, and further fine-tuning of its software and chassis hardware ought to make it truly special in the future.Mach-E GT vs. Model Y Performance: Charging TimesAlthough most EV buyers will have access to their own charger at home, how long it takes for a vehicle to refill its battery pack is an important consideration when owning an electric car. During our own experience at public charging stations, the Tesla charged faster than the Mach-E.The Ford allows a peak rate of 150 kW—pretty good considering you can add about 150 miles of range in 30 minutes. Using a 350 kW Electrify America fast charger, we went from 15 to 80 percent charge in 41 minutes. However, once the battery got to 80 percent, the charge rate dropped to just 13 kW, or about the rate of a Level 2 charger, meaning it dramatically increased the time needed to fill up.The Model Y, on the other hand, can charge at a peak rate of 250 kW, but we had mixed experiences at Supercharger stations. On the way home, we stopped at a busy Mojave Supercharger, with our Model Y taking 50 minutes to charge from 30 to 80 percent; we were only getting a 48-kW rate. At a less busy Supercharger station, however, the Model Y needed just 15 minutes to go from 28 to 65 percent, charging at a steady 190 kW. Like the Mach-E, the Tesla's charge rate dropped once the battery reached an 80 percent charge, but it stayed around 60 kW.Mach-E GT vs. Model Y Performance: ValueAlthough Tesla seems to increase the Model Y's price every other week, a short list of options helps keep the SUV's price down slightly compared to the Mach-E, especially when the Ford is loaded up. While $66,190 isn't exactly attainable, there is good value in terms of performance, overall excellence, and technology. In the ICE realm, the closest competitor, a comparably equipped Porsche Macan GTS, costs more and is slower than the Model Y Performance.The Mach-E GT is a bit more expensive than the Tesla, but the premium only gets you slight edges in ride, handling, and braking, so those might need to be your priorities if choosing the Ford. Its interior design is handsome enough but isn't as modern or as crisp as the Tesla's, although it does come with technologies like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that are simple and easy to use. The Ford's build quality also feels superior to the Model Y's, and its sports seats are supportive and appropriate for a performance-oriented SUV.Given that the as-tested costs, being just $3,610 apart, might as well be identical in this price range, and that both are stellar performers overall, the Tesla feels ever so much more worth the money thanks to an interior experience that feels more modern.Mach-E GT vs. Model Y Performance: The VerdictWe expected this comparison test to be a close call—and it was. Both the Mach-E GT and Model Y Performance offer joyful, satisfying driving experiences. These versions of their makers' entry (or only) electric SUVs were developed to please enthusiasts, and more than anything they show how fun EVs can be.But as in our comparison test of the mainstream models, the Tesla comes out on top here. Yes, the Mach-E rides and handles better, and its braking is superb, but the Tesla is the better all-around choice. It gets going incredibly quickly, has no qualms about reaching speed, charges at a faster rate, feels more premium, and it drives very nearly as well on a twisty road.The Mach-E GT is Ford's first attempt at making a performance-oriented electric SUV, and it's hugely impressive. There are some rough edges to sand down, but it updates an icon for a new age and certainly puts Tesla on notice. But for now, the newer brand on the block remains on top.2nd Place: Ford Mustang Mach-E GTPros:Handsome stylingSuperb ride and handlingGrabby brakesCons:High-speed limitationsElevated PriceLonger charging time1st Place: Tesla Model Y PerformancePros:Quick accelerationsFast chargingFuturistic interiorCons:Ride is a bit harshInterior quality could improveRange is misleadingPOWERTRAIN/CHASSIS 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E4x (GT Performance) SPECIFICATIONS 2021 Tesla Model Y Dual Motor Performance SPECIFICATIONS DRIVETRAIN LAYOUT Front and rear-motor, AWD Front and rear-motor, AWD MOTOR TYPE Permanent-magnet electric Induction electric (front), permanent-magnet electric (rear) POWER (SAE NET) 480 hp 456 hp TORQUE (SAE NET) 634 lb-ft 497 lb-ft WEIGHT TO POWER 10.4 lb/hp 9.7 lb/hp TRANSMISSION 1-speed automatic 1-speed automatic AXLE RATIO 9.05:1 9.0:1 SUSPENSION, FRONT; REAR Struts, coil springs, anti-roll bar; multilink, coil springs, anti-roll bar Control arms, coil springs, anti-roll bar; multilink, coil springs STEERING RATIO 14.6:1 10.3:1 TURNS LOCK-TO-LOCK 2.6 2.0 BRAKES, F; R 14.3-in vented disc; 12.4-in disc 14.0-in vented disc; 13.2-in vented disc WHEELS 8.0 x 20-in cast aluminum 9.5 x 21-in; 10.5 x 21-in, cast aluminum TIRES 245/45R20 103Y Pirelli P Zero Elect 255/35R21 98W; 275/35R21 103W Pirelli P Zero Elect T1 DIMENSIONS WHEELBASE 117.5 in 113.8 TRACK, F/R 63.5/63.4 in 64.8/64.2 in LENGTH x WIDTH x HEIGHT 186.7 x 74.1 x 63.5 in 187.0 x 75.6 x 64.0 in TURNING CIRCLE 39.7 ft 39.8 ft CURB WEIGHT (DIST F/R) 4,980 lb (50/50%) 4,408 lb (49/51%) SEATING CAPACITY 5 5 HEADROOM, F/R 40.4/39.3 in 41.0/39.4 in LEGROOM, F/R 43.3/38.1in 41.8/40.5 in SHOULDER ROOM, F/R 57.6/55.9 in 56.4/54.0 in CARGO VOLUME, BEH F/R 59.5/26.6 cu ft (4.7 cu ft frunk) 72.1/30.2 (4.1 cu ft frunk) TEST DATA ACCELERATION TO MPH 0-30 1.4 sec 1.6 sec 0-40 2.0 2.2 0-50 2.7 2.8 0-60 3.6 3.5 0-70 4.7 4.5 0-80 6.1 5.6 0-90 8.5 7.0 0-100 12.3 8.7 PASSING, 45-65 MPH 1.8 1.5 QUARTER MILE 12.6 sec @ 100.6 mph 12.0 sec @ 114.7 mph BRAKING, 60-0 MPH 105 ft 113 ft LATERAL ACCELERATION 0.96 g (avg) 0.91 g (avg) MT FIGURE EIGHT 24.9 sec @ 0.78 g (avg) 24.8 sec @ 0.79 g (avg) CONSUMER INFO BASE PRICE $61,000 $65,190 PRICE AS TESTED $69,800 $66,190 AIRBAGS 9: Dual front, f/r side, f/r curtain, driver knee 8:Dual front, front side, f/r curtain, front knee BASIC WARRANTY 3 yrs/36,000 miles 4 yrs/50,000 miles POWERTRAIN WARRANTY 5 yrs/60,000 miles, 8 yrs/100,000 miles EV/Battery 8 yrs/Unlimited miles ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE 5 yrs/60,000 miles 4 yrs/50,000 miles BATTERY CAPACITY 88 kWh 82.0 kWh EPA CITY/HWY/COMB ECON 88/75/82 mpg-e 115/106/111 mpg-e ENERGY CONS, CITY/HWY 38/45 kWh/100 miles 29/32 kWh/100 miles EPA RANGE 260 miles 303 miles RECOMMENDED FUEL 240-volt electricity, 480-volt electricity 240-volt electricity, 480-volt electricity ON SALE Now No Show All
