This guy is the best in the biz. He just gave a Wizard of Oz shout out in a car review 🤣

I swear, Kia/Hyundai/Genesis is the only manufacturer that is actually putting effort into design. Their pushing he envelope in design and succeeding more often than not for the past 5+years. Concerned about overall reliability still but hard to pass on these beautiful rides

This by far has to be the best Sonata design ever.

I bought one a few weeks ago after comparing it to the Camry and K5 GT. I think it punches way above its price point with a sticker of 36K, and no additional dealer markup. I got mine for 35K and feel good about it.

The N line is good, solid mid size car. It was my choice until I found out it lacked many features. For about 1k more, the k5 is a better alternative. Folding mirrors, 360 degree camera, rear vents, ventilated seats, and heated steering wheel.

Joe, I wonder if you’re going to do a video on the C5 GT refresh as well. I know it’s at the Chicago auto show and that’ll be out later this spring apparently. I do like the looks of this n line though

It's got the triple turn signals really cool. I missed the C shape look from the previous design look.

Interior is far better than anything in it's class. Only car in it's class to have ambient lighting also.

I currently have a 2021 in the gold color. I really like the interior design of the 2024, and love the way the exterior looks in red, and transmission blue. But they actually REDUCED features for the 2024 despite increasing the price. No more summer tire option, no more rear seat vents, no more auto dimming home link mirror. And they didn't add any highly-requested features, like the blind spot cameras or memory seats, which other markets get. So yeah, I'm kinda disappointed with this refresh. Refreshes are supposed to improve, not regress. That being said, the car itself is still good. I regularly run 13.3 @ 106mph in my 2021, stock. Way faster than its competitors like the v6 Camry and 2.0T Accord, which aren't even made anymore.

The old N line have trouble putting power down. Does the new one come with AWD or LSD?

I test drove one of these and honestly loved every part about it EXCEPT the fact the driver's seat is 3-4" too high even at its lowest setting. If Hyundai could figure out how to make you feel like you're in the car rather than on it (Honda has managed it for years, c'mon guys) then it would honestly be super solid. The shifter is kinda wonky too but that would be easy to acclimate.

So much improved.

I think you may be right!

Beautiful Color.!! But, I am so tired of seeing everyone moving away from nice sporty looking gauge clusters and replacing with a stupid LED screen. Just because you can put it on a screen, doesn't mean you should. I can't imagine anyone wanting a performance car, wants an LED display for the tach and speedometer and a clunky wide steering wheel wand instead of a shifter. Aside from that , it is a nice car but I think I'll avoid the wheel hop and head toward the AWD Genesis this time around.

I have air curtains installed in my living room. I can't see them though.

Why are all the car manufacturers adding a turbo to the engines ? Just make the engine stronger so it doesn't need one. The turbo is nothing but a high temperature fan that cooks the oil and nearby wiring. Use a small block 283 and your good.

It's too bad they removed the rear A/C vents.

Great review, but the 2021 model still looks more stylish, in my opinion. Here in Australia the 2024 trunk (which we call the ‘boot), has a push button automatic close feature. Is that not the case in the USA?

Looks damn good but that $35,960 (36K) price tag makes it a hard pill to swallow lol. Pins it against far too many options that have that high reliability tag going for them. Like higher trim Accords & Camry's. Seeing this sit at around the 31 to 32K mark would of been more price appropriate.
