Hyundai recently introduced its all-new 2011 Sonata at the Los Angeles Auto Show. This marks the North American debut of the latest version of the popular midsize sedan, introducing Hyundai’s “Fluidic Sculpture” design language and an all four-cylinder engine lineup to the U.S. market.

It has not taken long for the new Sonata to be in demand. Hyundai of St. Augustine is selling them as fast as they are getting them.

“We are getting shipments in daily, but they are selling within 24 hours of hitting the ground,” said Andrew DiFeo, general manager of Hyundai of St. Augustine.  “We have a good supply of them being shipped to us, some of which are already pre-sold.”

Sonata is the second vehicle in Hyundai’s 24/7 version 2.0 product initiative (seven new models in the next 24 months) following on the heels of the all-new Tucson.

The 2011 Sonata represents a modern approach to the traditional midsize sedan segment by using only advanced four-cylinder engines, emotional design and luxury features offered with Hyundai’s strong value proposition.

A sophisticated look can be found inside and out.  For the interior, Hyundai has created an upscale ambiance thanks to a flow-through center console and instrument panel. These flowing surfaces complement the exterior design and wrap around the driver and passengers.  Sonata has the most interior volume of its key competitors. It is so spacious, Sonata continues to be classified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a Large car, truly a “class above” Camry, Altima, Fusion and Malibu (all are categorized as Midsize cars).

“The Sonata is a sharp looking car that offers great value to those who buy them,” said DiFeo. “We are definitely ahead of the competition with the 2011 Hyundai Sonata and right now we are offering a special lease program.”

Sonata delivers an impressive 22 mpg city/35 mpg highway fuel economy rating with the available six-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC®. (When equipped with the six-speed manual, the Sonata achieves 24 mpg city/35 mpg highway fuel economy rating).
