2018 Hyundai Sonata SE | One Owner | CARFAX Certified A smart used sedan should deliver more than a low priceit should be comfortable, economical, well equipped, and inexpensive to live with. This one-owner, CARFAX Certified 2018 Hyundai Sonata SE delivers that balance with a spacious interior, excellent highway fuel economy, smartphone connectivity, and driver-assistance features buyers may not expect from a base-model sedan. Finished in sophisticated Machine Gray over a Gray Premium Cloth interior, the Sonatas refreshed design gives it a cleaner and more upscale appearance than many similarly priced competitors. Its original MSRP was $23,245. Power comes from a 2.4L Gasoline Direct-Injection 4-Cylinder engine producing 185 horsepower, paired with a conventional 6-Speed Automatic Transmission with SHIFTRONIC® and Front-Wheel Drive. This combination delivers smooth everyday performance while achieving an EPA-estimated 25 MPG city, 36 MPG highway, and 29 MPG combined. Exterior features include 16-Inch Alloy Wheels, Projector Headlights with Automatic Light Control, LED Daytime Running Lights, Heated Power Mirrors, Chrome Window Surrounds, Solar-Control Glass, and a temporary spare tire. Inside, the Sonata offers the passenger room and comfort that make a midsize sedan appealing for commuting, family use, and longer trips. Equipment includes Premium Cloth Seating, Air Conditioning with Cabin Air Filter, Remote Keyless Entry with Alarm, Power Windows with Driver Auto-Down, Power Door Locks, Cruise Control, a Tilt-and-Telescoping Steering Wheel, a 60/40 Split-Folding Rear Seat, and an Advanced Trip Computer with Custom Settings.

Nicos Take The real value of this Sonata is how much useful equipment Hyundai included in the SE trim. Blind-Spot Detection and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert help during daily traffic and parking, while Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and the 7-inch touchscreen keep the cabin from feeling dated. It also gives buyers something increasingly difficult to find: a roomy midsize sedan with 36 MPG highway, a traditional 6-Speed Automatic Transmission, comfortable seating, and enough rear-seat and trunk space for real family use. For someone comparing a Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Nissan Altima, Ford Fusion, or Chevrolet Malibu, this Sonata presents a strong combination of equipment, efficiency, interior space, and one-owner history without requiring the price of a newer vehicle.
