Adding $3,450 to the price of the standard gasoline variant, the Sonata Hybrid hybrid carries a base price of MSRP $25,500 and is offered in 3 trims, reaching a price of MSRP $30,500 for its top trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 2.0L inline-4 engine supported by a 270-volt electric system. Mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission, it makes 193 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 29 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 42 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it.
