Trims and Powertrain

Hyundai offers two versions of the front-wheel-drive 2025 Sonata Hybrid: the well-equipped SEL and the loaded Limited. Both trims have a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a 39 kW electric motor. This hybrid system produces 192 net horsepower, which is managed through a six-speed automatic transmission. The EPA has estimated the estimated fuel economy for both at 44 mpg in the city and 51 mpg on the highway. The trunk offers 15.6 cubic feet of cargo space.

Standard Features

The SEL’s list of amenities includes heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, fabric upholstery, wireless device charging, a hands-free trunk with automatic open, an eight-way power driver's seat, LED exterior lighting with automatic headlamps, proximity keyless entry, push-button start, and an app-based digital key. This trim also has a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a 4.2-inch driver information display, heated power side mirrors, rear air-conditioning vents, four USB ports (two per row), and 17-inch alloy wheels.

Upgrades for the Limited include a power panoramic sunroof, leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a driver's memory system, a power trunk, a color head-up display, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a leatherette-wrapped dashboard, fender-mounted LED turn-signal indicators, ambient LED cabin lighting, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.

Advanced Driver Aids and Safety Technology

The Hyundai SmartSense collection of advanced driver-assist systems comes standard on the 2025 Sonata Hybrid. The suite consists of forward collision-avoidance assist (with pedestrian/cyclist detection and junction turning detection), lane-keeping assist, lane-following assist, blind-spot collision warning, rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist, highway driving assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, driver attention warning, safe exit warning, and rear occupant alert. The Limited adds a blind-spot view monitor, a surround-view monitor, reverse parking collision-avoidance assist, parking sensors (rear/front/side), and Remote Smart Park Assist. A set of airbags is also included, as are anti-lock brakes, stability control, traction control, and a rearview monitor.

Infotainment and Connectivity

Both Sonata Hybrid trims are equipped with a 12.3-inch touchscreen display supported by wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, SiriusXM satellite radio, Bluetooth, and over-the-air updates. Bluelink+ connected services also come standard. The infotainment upgrades for the Limited include navigation, dynamic voice recognition, and a 12-speaker Bose audio system (versus a six-speaker setup in the SEL).
