FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Aug. 30, 2023 – Hyundai today launched the enhanced 2024 #sonata midsize sedan during a YouTube news conference. Simon Loasby, influential designer and head of the #hyundai Style Group at #hyundai Motor Company, walked viewers through the design upgrades. José Muñoz, president and Global COO of #hyundai Motor Company and president and CEO of #hyundai Motor North America, discussed why consumers are showing renewed interest in sedans. #hyundai has a strong history of regularly updating its #sonata lineup and exceeding customer expectations. The new 2024 #sonata goes on sale this winter.
“With a total of nearly three million sedans sold in the U.S. in the past twelve months, those new buyers and owners seeking to stay in the sedan segment will find that #hyundai is there with beautifully updated #sonata models,” said Muñoz. “Sonata will now be available in All-Wheel-Drive, attracting even more sedan buyers to #sonata.”
Hyundai’s proven #hyundai TRACtion (HTRAC) AWD system is now available on #sonata for the first time. HTRAC is mated to the 2.5L engine to provide all-weather capabilities and enhanced driving performance by actively distributing torque between the front and rear wheels, depending on road conditions and driving situations. #sonata will once again be available as a standard internal combustion engine (ICE) model, sporty N Line variant, or hybrid electric (HEV) version, with a range of engine options.
“We wanted to give #sonata a more contemporary design statement,” said Loasby. “It is super wide, fresh, modern, and very cool. Its low-slung design embodies our theme of Sensuous Sportiness, and its coupe-like styling makes this the most aerodynamic #sonata design ever. A true sports family sedan.”
