On top of the blinker/blindspot on the digital dash, the Limited edition also has a hologram that shines off the windshield that shows you when vehicles are in your blind spot, and this system is directly in front of you, so you don’t even have to look at the dash and you can keep your eyes on the road.
You beat me to mentioning that awesome feature that’s incorporated into the headsup display.This eliminates the need to take your eyes off the road period because even looking at the lane change cameras in the digital dash necessitates taking your eyes 👀 off the road ,so seeing vehicles in your blind spot in the headsup display in Dope.
We just became owners and love love love our new car. Thank you for the review, we are still learning the new tech and feel like we made a good choice in our 2021 Hyundai Sonata.
I’m glad these review vids are out there but a lot of people forget to mention the trim level of that car they are in because there’s a large difference in most.
Great review, literally found what I was looking for and now you helped me make my final decision between this and Mercedes a class ... definitely this car for the price with all those technologies that I want. Btw the name of the channel is perfect.
I have a series of videos on my other channel. Here is a link to one: th-cam.com/video/EoMrW_9DOU4/w-d-xo.html It’s on a 2020 but it’s exactly the same
@@MetzTech Thanks appreciate it.. Im lined up to buy a new car, and been doing my research now, probably too long lol Im stuck between an Accord, Camry, and the Sonata Limited. Since you work for an automotive group, possible to ask your opinion, off-line, an opinion about current pricing here for this car? Every dealer around me has this going for around the same, give or take. I found one dealer however, that appears to have lower prices on these.
I have the sel convenience package and I dnt have tht however hyundai should incorporate the blind spot cameras in all the models for standard saftey not price points 🤔 smh
I am especially interested to know if there are any differences between the 2021 and 2022 and also at a total roadblock trying to find out if I can put a hitch on my 2022. Neither Hyundai nor Uhaul seems to know, although one service rep from a Hyundai dealer said that Hyundai really does not want the Sonata to be pulling anything.
The digital key seems worthless to me. I have a keyfob in my pocket why would I want to hold a card up to the door instead? It makes no sense unless I'm missing something.
YOU MISSED A LOT! The sole purpose of using the digital key is to not use the keyfob! Keyfobs are heavy and cumbersome. Digital key can fit in your wallet and don't need a key to start the car.
Interesting that you say that. There are a couple ways. I have this video: th-cam.com/video/bEoCY0AJUlw/w-d-xo.html But I will also have a video coming soon that demos another method to do this! Thanks for watching Steve
No mention of the #1 glaring Tech Issue-- *NO WIRELESS AppleCARPLAY/AndroidAuto* ...Functionality which works on older Hyundai, but doesn't exist with this and other newer models sporting the 10+" infotainment panels. Just shopping around, I don't have personal experience just hearsay/claims of reviewers and end users...STILL by most reports ONLY USB works. Older Hyundai units which CLAIM wireless support sporadically disconnect, some owners report receiving a swarm of infotainment system error messages so annoying--the system must be rebooted. It would be nice to know the state of this technical glitch... *and thanks for the solid video!* _(It's not fair. You can do a thousand things right for AN AMAZING PRICE, but that ONE thing which went sideways... that's what people talk about--sorry I'm people)_
If you get the tech package, you lose the wireless car play fiction - but still have it if you plug in your phone. Without the tech package, it will work wirelessly
Hyundai have to throw a bone to the poverty specs. Not everyone can afford the top trim. So to implement that feature standard, is great marketing strategy.
Limited is around $32,000-$33,000 and typically you can get that down. Incentives or trade in…. You will almost never pay more than $30,000…. Maybe in this market, but not usually! Thanks for watching, Fred!
Correct! I have the trim listed in the description! Typically I’ll always make tech videos on the highest possible trim since it will have the most features!
It isn't even close to level 3 go watch a Tesla Autopilot demo because that is level 3 and it blows this Hyundai out of the water when it comes to self-driving. This is more like 1.5 or 2 but as a standard feature it works well on the highways anyway,
Car is trash I have own it for about a year or 2 and and have nothing but issues got it brand new broke down in the 2nd week of getting it didn’t even put gas in it as I got it on full tank so it broke b4 I can refill it. The radio has so many electricity issues I wish I can post some videos always detect a collision and brake the car with nothing in my path just so much to write just don’t get this car. SUCKS
Mine has voice recognition? Is yours hooked up Bluetooth wise? I can use the car voice recognition by clicking the voice button once, and you can access Siri by holding the button speaker button about 3 seconds. Fun fact 👍🏼

So the hologram you first mentioned is only in the heads up display? And if the heads up display is not activated you do not see the hologram?
What's this the n line ? And is n line above limited
@@benjaminbenson8914 the HUD is only on the limited. The N Line is below the limited.

You made a great choice, Marianne! Thanks for watching and enjoy your new Sonata! 🎉
Just bought 2021 Sonata SEL Plus. Love the way it drives & the turbo is more than I need! Learned a lot about the car from your quick video! Thanks!
Glad I could help! Congrats on the new Sonata! 🥳
That 1.6 is a dog however

It’s listed in the description!
Cant wait to purchase my first car 😍
same with me already gave the order just waiting to pick up!
Got my 22 yesterday :)
@@dhruvaldo how did you order it? did you have to do it from hyundai’s website, or the dealership?

Great work on the video. Professional quality :)

just bought mine over the weekend and I am in LOVE

Wow you found a parking spot on the great lawn/riverfront by the big four. What time of the day did you film this?
Got really luck lol. I don’t remember exactly
I just bought an N Line Sonata.
Are you guys charging a little over sticker?
2022?
@@MetzTech ‘21
Only time you would see one of ours over sticker is on a used model bc it’s all market value at that point. Won’t see it on new models
Great tech review! Have you reviewed the 2022 Sonata Limited 1.6T, yet?
I haven’t yet! Hopefully will soon

Save yourselves a lot of wasted time 3:09.

I wish I'd seen your comment prior. I almost went to look for another video.
May be 3:20 Nice video, but you are talking way too fast also you need to get to the subject quickly. :-)
Thanks for the feedback! I was starting a new series so I thought it warranted an intro!
I appreciate you watching!
@@Ka9radio_Mobile9 akikiiii so funny
Can you please tell me which model is this? SE, SEL, SEL PLUS, LIMITED? Thanks!
It’s a limited. Fully loaded
Thanks and please add this info to your vdo. Because so many trims out there.
I would like to know different between 2020 & 2021.

I want this exact car so bad but I make 36k a year so I can’t afford it😂🤷🏻♂️
I feel you! You’ll get there 🙏🏻
Is this the SEL or SEL Plus?
Limited
because i have the sel model
Tesla just brag too much , but inr almost all cars today comes with lvl 2 autonomous
this must be the highest model the limited
Correct! I have the trim listed in the description! Typically I’ll always make tech videos on the highest possible trim since it will have the most features!

Oh Lord I want a car please
I think all 2021 sonata doesn’t have the same features

UGLY CATFISH with great technology
🤣 Once someone told me it looked like a catfish I have never been able to unsee it
But it doesn't have voice recognition unless your phone is plugged into usb how stupid of Hyundai
Mine has voice recognition? Is yours hooked up Bluetooth wise? I can use the car voice recognition by clicking the voice button once, and you can access Siri by holding the button speaker button about 3 seconds. Fun fact 👍🏼
It definitely has voice recognition without your phone being plugged in. I use mine all the time
