Completely redesigned for 2006, the Hyundai Sonata closes up on its competition with two new state-of-the-art engines, improved handling, a larger interior, and considerable upgrades in the safety department. With standard anti-lock brakes, electronic brake-force distribution, electronic stability control, and airbags in all important positions (six altogether), the 2006 Hyundai Sonata is among the safest vehicles in its class.

The 2006 Hyundai Sonata Mid-Size Sedan compares to the Ford Fusion, Honda Accord, Mazda 6, Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy, and Toyota Camry.
