2011 Hyundai Sonata YF Promo Film

[biyorkman]

Ｈｙｎｄａｉ？What is it?

[coolLife1500]

Hyundai makes great cars. And it's not all the features that comes standard, nor the design, or even the 10 year coverage that make it special. It's the ability to package up all thoses things and than some, all starting around 20 grand. No other car company at the moment can duplicate that or else they would've already done it. I own a Volvo and I plan on making the switch since it became a money pit only after 50,000 miles. They wanted 6 grand for a new tranny and that's 25% of a new Hyun

[AZURA888]

Oh!! South Korea your baby finally had grown, already offers cars that surpass the level of that of Toyota. I think Hyundai did the same what did Samsung and LG with Panasonic and Sony. Since 2006 are bigger than Japanese corporations.

For SK that in 1960 was a country where people was not able to buy a TV, that in 1980 had not color TV when all Latin American countries already had, to be nowadays the best manufacturer of high end products have to be a pride.

[kharmadog1]

Hyudai stands by their products. When I had four repairs for similar issues in two months, they replaced my 09 accent with a 2011 sonata.

[TheBoogieTuber]

this car saved my life back in Oct

[CALiBOiAKArezz]

woww i can picture this baby on 22 inch rimz defenetly a sexy ride keep it up hyundai.

[coolLife1500]

Wow lots of Japanese trolls in here. I wonder why?

[scwlim]

The car is great! The advert is crap!

[75ti]

Hyundai is now well knwon for being magnanimous. See! They are growing up and up again! This is exemplary Car Company with Great Insurance~I believed When Hyundai show a Premium Brand as well as Lexus, Acura, Infinity and BMW..Hyundai would beat them all but not yet, I WILL KEEP TO watch what they are contacting with WOrld Customer. sOME dAY Hyundai meet the bright sunday.

[Stormy868]

I have a good a better promo  ;) watch?v=5veZWLkGtxQ

[GrahamCrackers94]

its funny how people cling to Hyundai and Kias past and think its all the same today.

Not True. :)

[yelzhan123]

Hyundai need to recall again transmission shifter problem:watch?v=LGEQzpKQl0A

[gyozadumpling]

@yelzhan123 Shut up! you toyota salesman.

[yelzhan123]

@gyozadumpling I am not toyota salesman, I am BMW spareparts salesman,

yeah , whenever someone tells the truth about something(hyundai transmission)it is always hard to accept!!!

[kjk3159]

@yelzhan123

Just like the fact that Toyotas are having more problems then just their floormats. Including too much friction in the pedal that jams the accelerator, causing crashes. Just like the fact that Lexus SUVs are being recalled for rolling over on sharp cornering.

What is your point? Almost every car maker in the world have done recalls. Transmission shifter will at least not kill its passengers like Toyotas.

[SpiagiaVita]

@yelzhan123 Did you mean to say, you are a loser living in a junkyard somewhere in Kazakhstan, dealing stolen car parts from the U.S.? If you want to say it, you need to say it clearly. Okay, loser from Boratland?

[PuppetKing]

Seriously people need to stop typing their passion and write like they are angry about people who don't like this car; it just makes any Sonata enthusiasts sad that there are angry redneck folks out there who likes the Sonata. Again, keep your anger to urself because no one cars. If you like the Sonata, good for you, no need to be dissin' other people.

[Sarah01181225]

I bought in 2007 and drive 2008 Hyundai Sonata V6 with lifetime oil change privilege. Guess what!

I WOULDN'T TRADE WITH ANY OTHER CAR. IT IS JUST AWESOME!!!!!!!

[Phatdhad]

well....considering the price, style, and the reliability reports as of late.

I would buy 1.

[1ayeyar2]

Japanese craps are dissing hyundai out of fear that hyundai will take over toyota just like Samsung & LG took over Sony and Panasonic. This is really pathetic.plz stop bashing. Hyundai/Kia is undeniably the best car maker in the world now. It is really ridiculous when these craps say how hyundai copy others. well,plz keep yourself updated and it will beomce clearer that hyundai and kia are being copied by others. by the way,I am not korean.just can't accpet people who are biased towards hyundai.

[cys12141]

No, you stupid advertisers. You are not even trying to prove your theses with an argument. That pompous "form-follows-function" crap reeks of a cheap mercantile tactic. You are just putting a high-class facade on an otherwise perfectly pedestrian commercial. Whom are you trying to impress with this childish pretension, you advertisers?

[kenkantonsuruNO1]

cool!

How much is this car made in Korea？

[consoleman09]

LoL this is just an ad, not propaganda or lies. Japanese TV ads are full of craps too.

[kenkantonsuruNO1]

Hyundai has made the South Koreans?

Performance is also likely to understand the comments.

[yelzhan123]

hyundai sonata unintended acceleration problem watch?v=rY9-l9nVqHg

[SpiagiaVita]

DtorBill,

Oh by the way, your shitty Yoyota deserves every single shitty things you're getting from the media around the world.

I'll give no more than 2 years before your Yoyota president asks money from your sorry ass Jap government. LOL!

[SpiagiaVita]

DtorBill,

Does Hyundai scare you sorry ass Japs, that much?

[SpiagiaVita]

DtorBill,

Or four, or five. You've been in every fucking Hyundai videos I've been to. Do you pull these lies of yours from your ass or something? Or, is that how you sorry ass Japs live your life?

Like I said, there are literally thousands of videos talking shit about your shitty Yoyota cars. Then why the fuck are you on Hyundai videos but nothing else?

I know why. You fucking sneaky Japs have some thing about Hyundai. That's why.

[DtorBill]

If you can't noticed how many of these people just created the account to write rubbish. Please, check ANY of those accounts with bad comments against Japanese car makers, obviously you also have created more accounts... for sure to write rubbish. Be realistic instead writing things to convince about your own problem. Again, before changing the topic (your knowledge is NULE), add me to skype, would be a pleasure. 150 bars of pressure is crazy (as someone wrote before). Engine will bring problems

[DtorBill]

Lies? Which one? Again, I REPEAT. I wonder if you have some complex. I'm not answering your msgs. I'm just in two videos (or three) and just writing against people who write rubbish against Toyota. And man, I'm not saying anything else beside truth. The sad is seeing people with hundred of accounts giving votes and writing ridiculous comments. I already told you. If you don't want to keep the topic, we talk by skype: dtorbill

[DtorBill]

Let's people think by themselves instead making cheap propaganda. The most ridiculous things is... how many people write with different accounts pretending different people? This is ridiculous at all.

[SpiagiaVita]

DtorBill,

Are you talking about yourself again? You're the only one I know who goes around every single Hyundai videos and spread lies after lies. And now, I see that you've been thumbing up your own sorry ass comments.

What kind of a joke, Jap bastard are you? ROFL!

[DtorBill]

... Mazda 6, BMW 3 Series. A lot of reasons to say 'what's trying to do Hyundai selling those cars expensive without nothing better than others? Even using cadmium and nickel (and they talk about green? HYPOCRIT). And the worst: They threw rubbish against Toyota and... let's see REAL videos of Hyundai with sudden acceleration. Arrogant, and no objective people who are writing some of these comments (below) (Propaganda?). Sorry for my appreciation, but I think I'm right.

[DtorBill]

I can't understand how come people write these comments, not objective at all, arrogant (the only one car maker able to be compared with Hyundai is Porsche <-- What's that?) Poor technology, nothing of improvements and basically the same technology as before. Nothing of improvements compared with another car of the same segment and as expensive as another (it's Hyundai anyway). Be realistic, people.

More options: Subaru Legacy, Toyota Camry (Avensis in Europe), Ford Fusion, Honda Accord.

[JSY128]

@DtorBill

More options with more money. Yes, you brainless idiot.

What's your deal with hyundai's anyways, seriosuly i hate these ignorant chinese/japanese kids on youtube having literally nothing better to do then bash koreans.

I don't hate japanese or chinese, but i just hate arrogant racist immaturities that i always see on internet. Accept it, hyundai obviously does not produce same qualities as porche but they do produce best at it's price. Hence it being largest automobile sale in profit

[TPensams]

Would this worth it, if i sell off camry 2007 and buy this car?

[DtorBill]

Don't do that, my recommendation...

[otbway]

I mean come on, how far would Hyundai will push the copy boundaries. In this car, just the body i see the front looks like a lexus, the body art is a mix of Mercedes C class 2010 (espacially the wood, on the side this is purely Mercedes) and Volks-audi, like the new passat. The back looks also like a lexus. The inside looks like infinity, i mean the navigation system is fucking the exact same thing as an infinity with the botton change. like wtf...that has t be illegal at some point...

[torontostablaguy]

have a 2007 sonata 3.3 V6.... i would have bought this if it came with a V6 .... looks great though...

[yelzhan123]

pls tell me do u have this prblem as mine?

[yelzhan123]

pls watch this watch?v=V71o5golqf4 thanks

[pbmatheu]

Bought a white ES 10 days ago and absolutly love it. All of the features such as bluetooth, quality sound system, xmradio, ect. are great. However the best thing is the mpg. I have been averaging 37 mpg on the highway.

[killerz1112]

I just bought one!!!

incredible car

[yelzhan123]

hyundai sonata transmission problem, do u have same problem ? as mine watch?v=V71o5golqf4

[SupportForToyota]

@yelzhan123 Actually Hyundai has not just problems there. They also have in H1, Accent, etc. But those are the most famous... Easy to see in taxi drivers... They use the car... :)

The people write bad comments against us just becasue its incompetence... Sad Sad :)

[seanE46]

@SupportForToyota taxi driver also use mercedes benz

[SupportForToyota]

@yelzhan123 And taking into account... Hyundai uses the same engines for new cars... you can imagine what will happen. I can't comment these videos... :( Can you post what I have written?

[DtorBill]

Actually that happens in several Hyundai's model: H1, Sonata, Accent and we think that Hyundai uses the same engines in new models... well, you will probably see the same problems with the new Sonata... But well, people can't accept the facts... sad :(

[freestylekick321]

I LOVE THIS CAR>.

i have it..so good..

and everybody says great car

[urmomfarturdaddied]

This is a great looking car, really cool looking in person

[SupportForToyota]

This is even sad... if I can't put a video as response. I can't believe how the people can't accept Hyundai copies designs, technology, etc... and comments about Sony? This is crazy... Samsung better than Sony? Uhm... too many dreamers here...

[cjswnsdl]

i think you are one of the dreamers

[Wynton25]

You and your toyotas should be the last people to be saying anything about cars after all the problems you have had with your cars

[heatfullrat]

its look like lexus es350 with panaramic moon roof , just look at the full option one

in white color, big woooow

[yelzhan123]

just google u'll tons of unsatisfied customers with rubbish shifting sonatas tranny!!!

[GulbulD62607]

I got this car in red just last week and its awesome! =D

[brittonray]

man im so confused now.... i dont know which colour to get ;0

[ementamasol]

Shut up, gnawing sewer mice ' j0nga12 '

sneaky Jap liar.. piss off parasite

[biyorkman]

When I am labelled as a junk because there was a recall, I am unbearable.

[ravinaziankid]

The Sonata looks great and seems like they really are surpassing their competitors. I bought a 2002 Accent and loved it, I was one of the first few to modify and work on hyundais while the rest of the closed minded people thought its not worth it, but they weren't saying that when I could take a corner faster than them. I also have a 2004 Sonata and love it, very comfortable and reliable like all hyundais. Will be interested in the 2011 or the Genesis coupe turbo..looking forward to this

[ExmanBthumZ]

Only cars that can compete with Hyundai/Kia is Porsche, from 2010 models , on mid lx level , Fk BMW, on reliability

Japan's outdated Tech' can not even come close to super modern manufacturing facilities of Hyundai, entire complex is a giant computer circuit , level of quality control is unprecedented, materials & metallic durability surpass any other contenders..

Ps, To impress a bit more with stupid drag race point,, brawn idiots throw away practical sensible fuel economy

[TourDeSomewhere]

A very huge leap from its predecessor....Very stylish inside out. The exterior design should catch lots of attention and after all, the car looks fantastic, which means more buyers looking for a car would consider it. Hyundai and Kia are coming in fast.

[jinhanice]

hyundai' expectation of yf sonata exceed what normal people think. i 'm sure hyundai put alot of money on this model~

[jinhanice]

i mean this model is just genuine and a masterpeice that hyundai has made so far. from korean~

[stirrednotshaken7]

He's not over exaggerating kid, Koreans have caught up or even passed Japanese counterparts in technology. Look at the electronics market.

Samsung has surpassed Sony as the largest electronics company. Samsung's last quarter profits exceeded ALL Japanese electronics companies profits put together.

Toyota's chairman said, the car company he is most worried about was Hyundai.

[cdconner2642]

Size doesn't necessarily equal quality or best. Toyota is the #1 manufacturer by volume of cars in the world. By your logic that also means they make the best? McDonald's is the largest restaurant chain. Wal-Mart the largest discount store. You get the point.

I DO agree that Samsung has caught up with and in many ways surpassed their Japanese counterparts. I like Samsung TVs. Their cameras aren't as good. Same with their receivers. But no one can deny that they're on par or better than SONY.

[matchew422]

sony sucks

[88soulsurvivor]

I happen to work at a Hyundai/Kia dealer and I can tell you all I know for a fact that they are very good cars. This new 4cyl engine outpowers most american v6s. Some new Kias and Hyundais are actually rated above average in overall quality (horsepower, comfort, safety, value, long term reliabilty) etc...

[cardesigner5]

everyone runs down this company as its not "cool" to like them, however the next decade in the automotive world will belong to hyundai/kia. the will also be the largest automaker by 2020

[jonny5662]

doesnt look too bad... Im not sure I would ever buy a Hyundai when there's still other manufacturers to choose from. Like tourdesomewhere said, they use to be crap.... yes, thats the reason I wont buy one. They are still trying to dig their reputation out of the hole.

[cdconner2642]

Hyundai said a few years ago that within a decade they wanted to compete with Lexus and Mercedes. With cars like this it looks like they're moving in the right direction. I wish they had decided to launch a new brand to go upmarket or buy out and bring over a brand like Ssangyong to launch a newer line of upscale cars. I like the new Hyundais that are launching but I would have a hard time buying an upscale car from the same lot as some of their other models.

[Xentradi97]

Hyundai and Kia have more than caught up in terms of quality, technology and design. Next step is premium brand power to compete with BMW and Lexus. Most likely they WILL have to launch a new and separate brand. And I think they are going about it right. One step at a time.

[cdconner2642]

Catching up in brand power is a larger hurdle than catching up technologically or in areas of quality. BMW, Lexus, Audi, etc all have entry-level luxury cars but not economy cars. If hyundai doesn't launch a new brand, I think we agree they eventually will, then they will have to leave the lower-end cars to KIA. Dump the Accent, Elantra and Tucson. This is why Lexus has Toyota, Audi has VW and BMW sells economy-class cars only in parts of Europe.

[Xentradi97]

That would be their next step of course. But they needed to make sure they can compete on tech, design and quality first. And they did. I doubt they'll give up Kia or Hyundai brand. Most likely they'll launch another. Both Hyundai and Kia is synonymous of being good, reliable but best "Value" car. Which is good but for luxury, "Value" isn't the thing that customers seek is it? Just like Beemer. High maintainence cost but people with money to buy Beemer don't really worry about that

[waszuemaem]

Only cars that can compete with Hyundai/Kia is Porche, from 2010 models , on mid lx level , Fk BMW, on reliability

Japan's outdated Tech' can not even come close to super modern manufacturing facilities of Hyundai, entire complex is a giant computer circuit , level of quality control is unprecedented, materials & metallic durability surpass any other contenders..

Ps, To impress a bit more with stupid drag race point,, brawn idiots throw away practical sensible fuel economy

[thebiggestloser08]

HAHA, is this little Korean kid serious??

"Japan's outdated Tech' can not even come close", this is pure idiocracy. Toyota created the world's most expensive and most accurate circular loom and is the best definition of "super modern manufacturing" which will eventually trickle down to every Toyota model. Hyundai/Kia is definitely improving their build quality, manufacturing, etc, and I predict will be the #2 car company by 2020, but to say no one but Porche can compete? Thats utter foolishness

[Xentradi97]

Waszue, I agree that BMW is terrible in terms of reliability and utility but in terms of performance and brand power, that's where the attractiveness is. And people buy BMW for that despite knowing the cost of maintenance.

[TourDeSomewhere]

For all those losers that says and criticise all new korean cars ( 2010> ), please shut up. You think you have very good car knowledge that you say it looks like the Germans, Japanese and Americans? Then why don't you criticise Rolls-Royce Phantom for copying some 80s hyundai because they have the same shape? Absolutely no car knowledge at all.....Yes, Hyundai used to be shit, but now it is improving...but you all losers don't even give it a chance....makes you a failed car enthusiast.

[tootsiejoon]

Very well said. I agree. Most comments left is by individuals who have no automotive knowledge what so ever. I like to see what they drive...

[rishsn]

If only they would stop the car and let you look at it.

It really is a hideous machine, something a transformer would crap out in a bush. Look at pictures of this car not moving

[rishsn]

the designers obviously ran out of idea.. Um Mercedes roof styling, BMW rear lights, BMW sharp edges across door handles and BMW mixed w/ Mercedes wing mirrors.

however they have maintained their own individualistic style in one way. The ugly styling of the hood edges confusingly converging into the rest of the car.

[UATimka]

its still hyundai.... interior from infiniti front toyotas back VW cc and mercedes technologies... looks good but..............

[thebankcard]

this car is going to be motortrend, kelly blue book, jdpower, car of the year when it comes out and don't for the magic pricing hyundai offers to keep people happy they understand that just because you make something shiny in the inside or out don't make the car worth 5000 more than last years model

[contractki11er]

I like that it has a coupe design like the CC or CLS but one thing that makes this 4 door coupe different from the others is its SEATING FOR 5! :D

[cdconner2642]

I'm skeptical until I see it in person. My Audi A4 is "seting for 5" but unless I'm rolling around with 3 children it is very uncomfortable. Yes, I've seen the auto show videos of people sitting in the back seat. I'll still reserve judgment.

[contractki11er]

very true, we'll just have to see it in person

[kloveterms]

for the past years hyundai has really improved their standards and quality....and this is showing in their other brand kia...the new sonata is very beautiful..i think it looks better than all toyota competitors. hyundai rocks

[technoKimchi]

I am either buying this one or Genesis coupe :)

[EliteSlayer542]

I sorry, but I'm not wasting anymore time with you.

[asitmc]

get a life.

[EliteSlayer542]

ya, right, which is why Hyundai is doing so well and winning so many awards...

I have an 09' sonata and it kicks the ass of the Camry/Accord. I love it.

If you want to ignorant think Hyundai is shitty than it's fine by me.

[EliteSlayer542]

LOL, GTFO you stupid troll!!

[punture2]

Can anyone tell me what song is being played?

[nixiguf]

Rachmaninoff Op23, No 5 and the last one is Beethoven Piano Concerto No 5 ( aka Emperor )

[punture2]

thanks man

[OcEaNx1987]

wah this is really the meanest and fiercest lookin sonata. really nice. gonna change the 2011 sonata.

[jriley1992]

Hyundai has just built a car that can kick Honda and Toyota's ass. I'm proud of Hyundai!

[SNLGUY]

there is a rumour going around that the 2011 Sonata will not offer a V6 I am wondering if they will offer a turbo I4 ? Cant seem to get designs now withoout that obtrusive sloping center console that crowds the right leg! Looks over comfort seems the trend sort of like a woman wearing a girdle all day just to look good when losing weight is the true answer!

[palebeachbum]

From what I've read and heard, the current Sonata is mostly sold with the I4. It's powerful enough and awesome on gas. The V6 is more refined and much stronger, but it's overkill for everyday use. Most people can't justify paying more money for a larger motor that they don't need which eats extra gas. I hope they use the current 2.4L in the 2011 Sonata. I have it in my Kia Optima. Smooth, strong 4cyl. that's great on gas.

[rnjstkdtn123]

Hyundai is growing so fast over past few years...

I give applause for that, im impressive with genesis but not only that, im looking forward to see 2011 Hyundai Equus,,,very luxurious cars. BMW,Benz,and Lexus better watch out!!

[RAS4915]

Toyota and Honda are building unattractive vehicles. This will be the wake up slap from Hyundai.

[banstaman]

This is HOT!

[TerryFilming]

Toyota and Honda are now officially hiding and running for their money.

[gyozadumpling]

Holy Shit!!! We are duped!! That's what Toyota CEO said after watching this commercial.

[forgotmyusername2]

Whats the name of this piano piece?

[syw0429]

why do I get chills watching every new hyundai cars? !!!!

BECAUSE I BOUGHT A FRIGGIN TOYOTA NOT LONG AGOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

NOOOOOOOOOOOO~~~~~~~~~~~

[forgotmyusername2]

lol

[EliteSlayer542]

NOOOOOOOO!!! I BOUGHT A SONATA LAST YEAR! If I would have known something THIS awesome was coming I would have put up with my 1997 Toyota Corola until this came out!

IT'S NOT FAIR!!!!! :(

[slantsix73]

No kidding....

Brand New Sonata in 2009.....

All New Sonata in 2011????????

Hyundai is the only automaker capable of redesigns that quickly. 2 Years between generations? Amazing.

[chltmdwp]

2009 was to refresh its design.

[slantsix73]

It was a complete revision -- all new sheetmetal outside and completely new interior. Most car companies would have called it a day for 5 years with the substantial improvements made for '09.

[ponchoyo]

ya u derp.

[anurek123]

my next car not a honda.... its a hyundai :D

[mrclep1]

WOW ! i am in love <3 Lexus and honda GO HOME !

[Grandam1999]

Just read in Korean article, that in Korea, it is selling like crazy, company can't even produce enough even if they worked overtime and weekends. But, imho, due to the very Camry like overall look, not many Americans will be appealed by it. That, and the Hyundai name, though it's improved over the years, will still be a turnoff to many American people, which is a shame, for it looks like a good car.

Well, good Luck Hyundai.

[wtrdogg20]

You wanna know what is a real turn off?: A decreasing quality Toyota is a Turn off, a crappy quality and design American Ford or Chevy is a Turn off. Overpriced cars with crappy standard equipment is a Turn off. So please read more and check JD Power for the Compact best quality Hyundai Elantra, or the North American Car of the Year Genesis Sedan, The most reliable sub Compact car in America Hyundai Accent, Best Pick Motor Trend Hyundai Veracruz over Lexus RX. Do your homework, then comment.

[intershark]

Finally, here comes the Toyota Killer!

[DamagesRocks]

I predict his car is going to sell really well here in the states. I personally love it!

[perfectcheeseburger]

Conclusion: Don't think you'll be getting a car that encroaches on the Azera territory. It's only the design that is a little bit more fresher than before. Other than that it is just a humble midsize car.

[wtrdogg20]

With very good equipement and details, dude. Very Upscale for a regular midsize car.

[kibzara]

OMG man,how can you even compare the old model and this one?totaly new stuff...Hyundai said that this design,called the liquid design,will be used on all new models that are about to come!o,and this is NOT in Azera class,new genesis is!

[dhk821]

I love it!

[eurasian73]

Wow! Looks great. Way to go Hyundai!
