At this year’s Seoul Motor Show, the South Korean automaker revealed the refreshed Hyundai Sonata. The car brings a sensational design that results in less noise and vibrations, but also a new energy distribution structure to increase protection against side collisions.

The car will be powered by three types of engines: a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated, a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine (for the N Line), as well as a 2.0-liter hybrid. Although it was announced that it will have AWD, there is no confirmation of this information from Hyundai. That could happen soon, given that the rival Kia K5 also has AWD. Also, Hyundai did not reveal the technical specifications for these three engines.

Some of the innovations are that the new Sonata can be parked by controlling it via smartphone while the driver is outside the car, and it can also be put out of park by moving forward and backward. The trunk is electronic, and the Sonata is equipped with numerous safety and auxiliary systems.

Inside, the car is equipped with a curved display with two 12.3-inch screens. There’s also a 12-inch head-up display, while over-the-air upgrades ensure the arrival of new software. For a better experience inside the car, there is a Bose sound system with 12 upgraded speakers.
