Balancing HP And MPG: 2011 Hyundai Sonata Turbo

Even though the 2010 Hyundai Sonata is still very new, Hyundai just added new models to the 2011 lineup. This includes the 2011 Hyundai Sonata Turbo, which receives a turbocharged 2.0-liter four cylinder engine that produces an impressive 274 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. Thanks to its broad, flat torque curve, the Sonata 2.0T should provide plenty of power and responsiveness at all times. Although no manual is offered with the turbo model, its six-speed automatic transmission does feature steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters for optimal control. Despite loads of power, the Sonata 2.0T still delivers a respectable 22 mpg city and 34 mpg highway. Look for the all-new 2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T in showrooms later this year for less than $25,000 nicely equipped.
