The 2022 Hyundai Sonata N-Line Night Edition Is One Sinister Special Edition
It might not seem like much on the outside, but the current Sonata N-Line is one of the most potent and fun-to-drive cars in its class. There's something special about its absurdly powerful four-cylinder engine and front-wheel-drive-only layout that make it not only one of the quickest midsize sedans you can buy but one of the most fun, too.
For 2022, Hyundai is announcing a special Night Edition for the Sonata N-Line. The package takes inspiration from the new film, Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins. The N-Line itself has been totally murdered out. The wheels are unique to the Night Edition and are all black. The center caps are black chrome, the badging is blacked-out and the black calipers are, well, not black — they're red.
As a refresher, the Sonata N-Line is powered by a 2.5-liter four cylinder that sends 290 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic to the front wheels. In our testing it needed just 5.6 seconds to get from 0 to 60 mph, making it one of the quickest sedans in its class (by quite some margin). It's also feature-rich inside and has an easy-to-use infotainment setup, supportive seats that have adjustable side bolsters, and an airy, easy-to-live-in cabin.
The Night Edition will be limited to 1,000 units and will be available in either Phantom Black or Quartz White. It'll start at $35,775.
Edmunds says
The Sonata N-Line is an underrated and easy-to-live-with performance sedan, and the Night Edition spices things up just enough to make it special.
