Best 2024 Sedan
By Franklin Pina | on Friday, March 22, 2024
Purchased my 2024 Sonata in February. Looking at all of the sedan currently on the market for 2024, the Sonata was hands down the best looking for the price. Unless you're willing to shell out $40,000+ for an Audi or BMW, the Sonata takes the cake for being the best affordable sedan on the market. It out classes the Honda Accord with its interior design. As well as the Toyota Camry. I love this car and it drives just as good as it looks. The outer design is a big upgrade from the 2023 sonata's fish-mouth grill design. The Sonata drives great and is a quiet ride. Hands down the best car purchase you can make.… - 5.0
