The 2024 Hyundai Sonata, despite being the eighth-gen model launched in 2019, is technically a facelift with significant design changes. As it transitions to the next generation, the midsize sedan has received a wide LED light bar in the front, similar to the Kona crossover, Staria minivan, and the larger Grandeur sedan. Notably, official images display both the standard model and the sporty-looking N Line, with the latter being the more desirable of the two. It has an exclusive 19-inch alloy wheels and a new design for the quad exhaust tips.

Moreover, Hyundai has revised the taillights with a flatter design and has relocated the H badge slightly below the light bar. Additionally, both the regular and N Line versions have redesigned bumpers, which makes the rear appear slightly more aggressive. The cabin has also undergone significant changes. The 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and infotainment touchscreen of the same size are enclosed in a piece of curved glass.

Furthermore, the dedicated HVAC panel with touch-sensitive controls is still available here. Other modifications include a continuous air vent design, a new steering with the four dots (H in Morse code), and the gear selector moved to the steering column to give the center console a cleaner look. This has allowed Hyundai to extend the central armrest and add a palm rest for extra driver comfort.

Overall, the cabin’s quality seems to have increased with the mid-cycle facelift. The 2024 Sonata will be showcased beginning March 30 at the Seoul Mobility Show, where details about the technical specifications are expected to be released.
