I agree. Overall the new Sonata looks nice, but it probably would have looked better with a bit less chrome up front.
Its been confirmed, it won't use a GDI engine.
Whole Press Release: http://www.myhyundai.com.ph/news.php...cal&newsid=179At the heart of the redesigned Sonata is a powerful 2.4-liter Theta II MPI engine—dubbed the most powerful petrol engine in its class, that can deliver up to a maximum power output of 178ps at 6,000rpm and a staggering torque of 23.3kg-m at 4,000rpm, reinforcing the intensity of this exquisite sedan beyond the contours of its mesmerizing physique.
PS: I wonder if the Sonata's cousin, the new Kia Optima will make it here...
Good thing they limited the chrome trim on this one.

AG4: Is it possible na dalahin yang Kia K5 (tama ba?) dito sa Philippines?
Yung 2.4L Theta II MPi engine same ng Tucson at Sorento
It seems the 2.0 turbo has already been test driven and reached speeds in excess of 140 mph. I take it there won't be a speed governor installed.
parang sorento na koche yung optima. haha!
damn kia and hyundai are picking up speed both sa design and performance department.
sana mag pick up din ang resale value at overall reliability nila on the long run.
im thinking of buying another hyundai next time![]()

Nabenta agad ang Sonata sa Hyundai Dasmarinas Cavite.
6 Yung dumating. 1 Premium & 5 GLS specs. Released na yung Premium at 3 GLS Specs.
Sabi ni Sir Luis parang Tucson daw ang pagdating ng Sonata. Hindi alam kung ilan at anong variant ang dadating. At hindi rin alam kung kailan ang next batch.
hmmm.. looks like the problems on the tucson will be inherited by the sonata. in terms of sales, pahirapan ng unit at ipitan nanaman ito.
or are they just doing the same old tactic all over again? to hoard and limit supply so that the demand will increase and thus price increase will be inevitable.
Actually bro.. hindi na old tactic yan. hehehe palagay ko tinatago talaga nila yung mga GLS 2WD Tucson. Tapos unahan yung mga buyer. Syempre priority yung mga cash. Napaka unfair. Kahit daw kasi nasa dulo ka ng pila, kung Cash buyer ka or at least 65% ang DP mo, mauuna ka sa pila
rsyu_88: WOW! Congratulations sir! Post pics agad ha![]()
Question san makakabili nang ipod connector? I asked the sales agent d raw kasama please help thanks
Lintik na iyan :hammer: Premium na yung sayo pero walang IPod Cable? Ayus sila ah
Sa Ebay sir meron IPod cables. Make sure na OEM.
Post ko yung part number bukas.![]()
Yes. Iisa lang ang IPod cable ng Hyundai at Kia. Meron binebenta dito. Sa Ebay PH.
Anyway.. reminder lang sir.

Sabi ng ninja ko (kaka PM lang)
Meron daw IPod cable ang Sonata Premium.
Baka naka lagay sa may spare tire. Doon ko nakita yung sa Tucson ko. Kasama yung owners manual at cargo net.
