Hyundai Sonata Insurance

There is a reason why experts recommend the Hyundai Sonata more than any other family sedan – save the Honda Accord – and that's because it packs quite a wallop, dollar-for-dollar. "Not only has the updated Sonata caught up to the mighty [Toyota] Camry, it's driven past it," said Edmunds.

The Sonata was rated "Highest Ranked Entry Car in Initial Quality" by J.D. Power and Associates in 2004. The Sonata has more standard features at a lower price than much of the competition and a supple ride that will have your passengers thinking you paid a lot more. But what about insurance and safety? We'll help you make sense of the insurance costs for your Hyundai Sonata.

Hyundai Sonata safety and insurance

Crash test ratings for the Sonata performed "okay," but the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety found that the Sonata did a "poor" job of protecting a driver's pelvis and leg and an "acceptable" job of protecting the driver's torso in the event of a simulated side-collision with an SUV or pickup at 31mph. The IIHS also determined the Sonata's safety cage / structure to be "marginal."

Despite its deficiencies in safety, the Sonata still costs relatively little in regards to auto insurance, at around $112 per month, on average. Still, this is somewhat higher than the average policy, so it's a good idea to compare quotes and ask an experienced representative about ways in which you can lower your rates on Hyundai Sonata insurance.

Hyundai Sonata features

The base GLS trim (*est. $18,700) includes amenities like MP3 and USB jacks, pinch-protect power windows and heated mirrors. Like all Sonatas, the GLS comes standard with a 175-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine; it achieves 25 mpg in mixed driving (21 city/32 highway with the five-speed manual transmission, 22 city/32 highway with the five-speed automatic).

Hyundai has looks and performance, but its greater attractiveness is in its reliability, affordability, and one of the best warranties on the market, with full bumper to bumper coverage for five years/60,000 miles.
