2025 Hyundai Sonata Sedan Trims Comparison

The SEL Hybrid and Limited Hybrid trims use a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed automatic and a hybrid system to produce a total of 190 horsepower. These hybrids are also front-wheel-drive only but get the best fuel economy of the lineup. Keep reading for more information about the hybrid and the Sonata's standard and optional features.
