Hyundai Sonata Turbo Debuts!

When the 2011 Hyundai Sonata was announced, Hyundai told us all that Hybrid and Turbo variants were coming.  Well, the Turbo is here!  With 22 MPG city and 34 MPG highway, the Sonata 2.0T betters its V6 competitors in the city.  On the highway, its fuel mileage is only slightly down from the non-turbo Sonata.  It does this, all while producing 274 horsepower, more than the Chevy Cobalt SS and Mazda Mazdaspeed3.  Offered only with a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters on the steering column, this car promises to be more fun than its more pedestrian versions.  With the regular Sonata having ample power, this one is sure to be a crowd pleaser, especially given Hyundai’s relatively lower prices.  Cross the jump to see more pictures.
