Hyundai Announces Pricing for 2012 Sonata Hybrid

[Hyundai NEWS]

Currently the best-selling hybrid sedan in America, the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is back for 2012 with some notable new changes but just a minor increase in price. For the new model year, the Sonata Hybrid will start at $25,850, representing an increase of just $55 (.2 percent) over the 2011 edition. As result, the Sonata Hybrid also remains the least expensive vehicle in its class.
But at the same time, Hyundai’s Blue Link connectivity and infotainment system is now standard across the Sonata Hybrid lineup, while a new, optional Leather Package has been introduced as well, featuring leather upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, heated front seats and rear-seat bottom cushions, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror with HomeLink and a built-in compass. The leather upgrade is priced at $1,500.
In addition, customers can still choose the Ultimate Package—with an MSRP of $5,000—which features all the same enhancements as the Leather Package, then adds:

• Panoramic tilt/slide sunroof
• 17-inch Eco-spoke alloy wheels with a unique finish
• Navigation system with a high-res touchscreen display
• Rearview camera system
• Premium 400-watt Infinity sound system with subwoofer and external amplifier
• HD Radio with multicasting
• 90-day trial subscriptions to SiriusXM, NavTraffic, NavWeather and Sports & Stocks
• HVAC multimode button
• Premium door-sill plates
• Glossy black door surrounds and outside mirror housings

And of course, the 2012 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid still delivers the best EPA highway ratings of any midsize sedan in the country—hybrid or non-hybrid. The bottom line here: 35 mpg city/40 mpg highway/37 mpg combined. It’s one of four Hyundai vehicles capable of reaching that highway mark, joining the Hyundai Accent, Hyundai Elantra and Hyundai Veloster, all of which are on sale now.
