Thanks to our reader, KimSH, the first spy shot uncovering the redesigned interior of the 2009 Hyundai Sonata was in our hands. The first peek at the new interior was a few months ago when we were just able to see the new vertical-slat A/C vents. Here, we have a full look at what Hyundai has for us for the facelifted Sonata. The current Sonata has been judged for a mediocre interior and Hyundai definitely listened. The new interior is more common with the Veracruz and the Santa Fe and it looks umpteen times better.
The dull steering wheel stays, but expect new electroluminescent gauges along with the new interior. A 5-speed AT will now be standard on the base models, replacing the current 4-speed gears. Engines will most likely remain as is.
