South Korea auto illustrator NY Mammoth has created a rendering with inspiration from the Hyundai Staria MPV. However the lack of spy media hasn’t stopped enthusiasts from imagining what it could look like. The company hasn’t started testing it, and spy pictures that could reveal parts of the design and the new shape are expected to emerge on Korean blogs and boards this year. Hyundai hasn’t disclosed details about the next-gen Sonata’s design. The report says that it is likely Hyundai will add an augmented reality head-up display, sequential turn indicators, and Highway Driving Assist 2 (HDA 2) to its features list. Taking the Sonata to its ninth generation, Hyundai will likely simplify its design to make it widely acceptable, and improve the onboard equipment. The powertrain mix of the Sonata DN9 could be the same as the current model (gasoline, gasoline-electric hybrid, and LPG). Called ‘third-generation vehicle platform’ publicly and ‘N3 platform’ internally, it does allow partial electrification with mild-hybrid, full-hybrid, and plug-in hybrid engines. The ninth-gen Hyundai Sonata (codename: Hyundai DN9) will ride on the platform that underpins the current model. To this effect, it has decided not to give the existing model a proper facelift, and will replace it with the next-gen Sonata in 2023. Despite trying with discounts, production suspensions, and a model year change, it hasn’t managed to salvage sales of the sedan. Data Source: Hyundai.Īccording to a report from Auto Post, Hyundai has acknowledged the Sonata DN8’s collapse. The Hyundai Grandeur has overtaken the Hyundai Sonata in South Korea in the last five years. The new offbeat Sonata, on the other hand, has failed to generate a wide excitement. It has evolved into a luxurious and sophisticated sedan with a bold design. Sure, the Grandeur has also adopted a quirky new look, but its recipe is a hit. That’s partly because it has evolved to be a more appealing product and partly because the Sonata has driven consumers away with its strange design. While the market is going from sedans to SUVs over the last few years, the Hyundai Grandeur has dwarfed the Hyundai Sonata in the Korean market. Due to lackluster sales, Hyundai is trying to start over with a new ninth-generation Sonata next year, it is reported in South Korea. The eighth-gen Hyundai Sonata (codename: Hyundai DN8) that debuted in March 2017 won’t get a mid-life facelift.
