Selected as a Car and Driver Editors’ Choice, the new Sonata boasts a sophisticated, modern design inside and out, offers several powertrains and provides an impressive range of standard and optional equipment. Choosing the Sonata is easy.

When it comes to the 2021 Hyundai Sonata vs 2020 Hyundai Sonata near Denver comparison, nothing has changed in terms of the fundamentals.

Interior – 2021 Hyundai Sonata near Denver CO

One of the big changes for the 2020 Hyundai Sonata compared to the outgoing model is that the vehicle got a bit more compact, which is where the consumer segment was trending. But losing a couple of cubic feet of interior volume did not cause major changes in a practical sense. The Sonata continues to seat five, and front legroom was actually expanded to more than 46 inches, which is rather impressive for the class. Rear legroom was maintained at about 35 inches, and the trunk affords 16 cubic feet of storage capacity. One of the changes for the new model is a safe exiting warning system, which will alert you if it is unsafe to open your door due to oncoming traffic.
