Bloomberg Businessweek have published their "test driven" review of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata. 'The front-wheel drive Sonata, Hyundai's best-selling U.S. model, is bigger, quicker, more sophisticated, and more fuel-efficient than the model it's replacing. The new Sonata, which went on sale early this year, matches or bests the competition by almost every measure. New hybrid and turbo-charged versions of the Sonata, due out late this year, will make Hyundai competitive in every niche of the midsize sedan market. The Sonata's strongest selling point remains its low price. The entry-level GLS starts at just $19,915, with a stick shift, and $20,915, with a six-speed automatic, yet includes such standard equipment as full-power accessories, heated outside mirrors, keyless entry, air conditioning, cruise control, a tilting and telescoping steering wheel, a six-speaker sound system with steering-wheel-mounted controls, satellite radio, and Bluetooth connectivity.'
