Production started with the model of 1988, with redesigns in 1992, 1995, 1998, 2002, and 2006.
Contents 1 First generation (1988–1994) 1.1 US Versions 2 Second generation (1995–1997) 3 Third generation (1998–2004) 4 Fourth generation (2006–present)
First generation (1988–1994) The original Sonata (Y1) was part of Hyundai's expansion in North America after the success of the Excel. It was introduced in South Korea on June 1, 1987. [1] It was then introduced in Canada in September 1987 as a 1988 model, and in 1988, as a 1989 model in the United States. The exterior was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of ItalDesign. The vehicle received a mid-term facelift in 1992. It replaced the Stellar as Hyundai's large family car.Sonatas were built in Asan, Korea, in Bromont, Quebec, Canada and in Montgomery, Alabama.
The Sonata was a Hyundai design, but still featured some Mitsubishi engineering, including its 2.4 L 110 hp (82 kW) Sirius I4 engine as used in American-market models. [2]. A 3.0 L V6 based on the Mitsubishi 6G72 arrived in 1990. The U.S. model received the 2.0 L engine for the 1992, replacing the original 2.4 L engine.
Trim levels were: US Versions GL (2.4 and 2.0 engines) GLS (3.0 engine)
Second generation (1995–1997) The second-generation Sonata (Y2) debuted in 1994, as a 1995 model. The base engine in most markets was a 2.0 L 126 hp (94 kW) Sirius I4, but there was a 3.0 L, 142 hp Mitsubishi V6 option in some markets. This generation continued after the demise of the Bromont, Quebec plant in 1994. After that, all Sonatas would be built in Korea, until the opening of the Montgomery, Alabama plant in 2005.
A relatively adventurous facelift for the Sonata (Y3) in 1995 saw the exterior style begin to look more upmarket, with Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz styling designs in the headlight area. The rear end also began to look more upmarket—only the central section was retained. Sales were up 25% that first year. [citation needed] The four-cylinder engine was up to 137 hp (102 kW) that year as well.
1995-1998 Sonata
Third generation (1998–2004) A new model arrived in 1998 (1999 for North America), launching the (EF) series. The styling was slightly less aggressive, and modeled more on a Hyundai's prototype showed earlier that year. This redesign kept the German influences, but bore an unintentional resemblance to the Ford Taurus as well.
Engines were 2.4 L 138 hp Hyundai Sirius and a 2.5 L 170 hp (127 kW) Hyundai Delta V6. A special 10-year warranty, along with even more upscale touches and a still-low price, boosted sells considerably in the US.
Facelifted Hyundai Sonata (Euro-spec)
A very Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Jaguar-esque look was added to the old underpinnings for 2000, the new model debuting in the American market for the 2002 model year (Sonata EF2). The 2002 model featured the all-aluminum, DOHC 2.7 L Hyundai Delta V6 powered the Sonata with 170 hp. Sales reached 104,000 for 2004.
The Kia Optima (called the Magentis in Canada and Europe) was based on the same automobile platform of this generation of Sonata and shared te same doors and some others panels.
This Sonata also lent it's platform to the first-generation Hyundai Santa Fe, an SUV.
This generation of Sonata is still being built (since 2002) and sold in China as of September 2006 by Beijing Hyundai Co. and in Russia by TagAZ.
Fourth generation (2006–present) The totally redesigned 4th generation Sonata was launched in August 2004 in Korea. A new platform also was created out of the project NF for total cost of 290 billion won. The company's first all-aluminum I4 engine, dubbed Theta, debuted in the new Sonata. Engine choices at launch were a 2.4 L I4 that produces 164 ps at 5,800 rpm and a 3.3 L 235 HP V6.
The U.S. launch of the new Sonata kicked off with the historical opening of the first U.S. assembly plant for the Korea-based Hyundai Motor Company in May 2005. The plant is located in Montgomery, Alabama. Car & Driver claims the car will launch to 60 mph (100 km/h) in 6.6 sec source: Car and Driver, and have a top speed of 147 mph (236 km/h) which was not tested on a dynamometer for the V6 at Hyundai's proving grounds most likely due to the gear ratios of the sedan or an coincidental slipstream. A Canadian sports version (a package on the GLS V6) was available and came with the optional 3.3 L 247 HP V6 engine.
2006/2007 models of this sedan did not receive a speed limiter, but U.S. officials are planning to put a limiter because of the powerful transmission when combined with the V6 version. Recently Goodyear, Arizona resident Lawrence Pargo was accused of doing 147 mph (236 km/h) in a rental Sonata. [3].
The Fourth Generation Sonata has been beyond the usual rate been used as a commercial vehicle (for example taxis) in Northern Europe countries. This has widely been regarded unusual, as "far-Eastern vehicles" such as Huyndai and Toyota have received limited success in the commercial vehicle market in Europe by the 2000's.
The new Sonata is 2 in (50.8 mm) longer and taller and 1 in (25.4 mm) wider than the previous generation. The US EPA now classifies the Sonata as a "large car". It is priced at US$18,500. A V6 Sonata starts at US$24,500.
The Sonata was named "Best New Family Car (under $35,000)" in the 2006 Canadian Car of the Year awards. This page is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses content from the Wikipedia article Hyundai Sonata
