2011 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID
Hyundai is making its North American h
ybrid debut with the 2011 Sonata Hybrid. The hybrid drivetrain was entirely developed by the Korean automaker, and the lithium polymer batteries it uses should last the life of the car. Other highlights include improved aerodynamics and low-resistance tires. The Sonata Hybrid is available in a single trim level with one available options package.Interior and trunk
The front seats are easy to access and very comfortable, with lumbar adjustment for the driver's seat. A tilt-and-telescoping steering column, and good head room and leg room, contribute to the enjoyable driving position. The doors open very wide - so wide that you have to lean way out to reach the handle to close them. Access to the rear is relatively easy, as long as you watch the rake of the roof. The bench-type seat is comfortable for just two, because of the floor tunnel and the shape of the middle section. Leg room is relatively generous, but head room is tight for people of average height or more. The seatback cannot be folded but it does have a ski pass-through. The hybrid battery pack reduces trunk space to 65% of the volume of the otherSonata models. The trunk lid opens fairly wide.
Convenience and safety features
The cabin is well finished in good-quality materials. Soundproofing is adequate. There are several good storage spaces. Gauges and controls are well laid out except for the audio controls on the steering wheel; access is complicated because of the shape of the spokes. The radio station selection buttons on the dash are a bit small. Everything is lighted at night except the outside mirror controls and power lock controls. Starting at 24 oC and above, the
air-conditioner is a bit underpowered. Placed under the edge of the hood, the wiper nozzles can easily be blocked by snow and ice.Photo: Hyundai
Safety features include six airbags (dual front, side and curtain), four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, stability control, and five head restraints, with active restraints in front. The three rear restraints do not adjust high enough for tall people. Visibility is very good except on a three-quarter-rear angle and towards the rear when backing up. The inside mirror creates a blind zone on a right angle for some drivers. The headlights are adequate in the low-beam position, but the high-beams lack range. In U.S. government crash tests, the Sonata Hybrid obtained four stars out of five for front-occupant protection in a frontal collision, and five stars for all-occupant protection in a side impact. It earned five stars for rollover resistance. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded the Sonata a Good rating, its highest, for roof strength, for driver protection in a frontal offset collision, and for all-occupant protection in a side or rear collision.Engine and transmission
The Sonata Hybrid is equipped with a 2.4-litre four-cylinder gasoline engine and an electric motor. Total output is 206 horsepower and 193 pound-feet of torque. The vehicle moves along easily, and acceleration and pickup are adequate. The hybrid system is notable for the speed at which it recharges its lithium polymer batteries and because it can power the front wheels in electric mode at highway speed. These batteries hold their charge 25% longer than nickel batteries. Transitions between the two power modes are imperceptible. Thanks to the design of the electric motor, fuel economy ratings are conventional in that the Hybrid does better on the highway than in the city. During our test, we obtained an average of 7.5 L/100 km, whereas with the standard Sonata we obtained9 L/100 km on the same roads, at the same speeds and at similar temperatures. In
terms of fuel efficiency, the Sonata Hybrid compares favourably with the much smallerFiat 500 (7.2 L/100 km during our test).
The six-speed automatic transmission always functions very smoothly. Unfortunately, downshifts are a bit slow. Its gears are well spaced, and it allows the vehicle to be driven off in second. Manual mode is relatively quick. The drivetrain can produce an irritating shudder, especially during warm-up.On the road
The four-wheel independent suspension generally delivers a very smooth ride. Some bumps produce a firm reaction, sometimes accompanied by suspension noise. Road holding is good, but with enough lean in some curves to limit enthusiasm. A tad heavy, the electric assist steering is stable, precise and relatively quick. It provides very little road sensation. The brakes are powerful, with good fade resistance, but difficult to modulate, especially towards the end, which sometimes produces an abrupt stop.Inspection
Our inspection at a CAA-Quebec technical inspection centre showed that the Sonata rests on a sturdy platform with good rust protection. The electric connections are well protected and wiring is well attached. The gasoline engine's overhead camshafts are chain driven.Conclusion
The Sonata Hybrid is impressive for its efficient lithium polymer battery technology. If the batteries last as long as Hyundai claims, this may be the vehicle that will bring more drivers into the hybrid fold. For a long time, we've been writing that Hyundai is a fast learner. Now, thanks to its ingenious technical know-how, it can teach a few lessons of its own.
