Hyundai Prices 2025 Elantra, Sonata

The popular Korean brand is one of the few marques which continues to offer several different sizes of four-door sedan – and we’re glad for it.

Starting with the Elantra, look for an MSRP of $21,875 plus fees for an entry-level SE trim, a sum rising about five grand as it passes through the SEL Sport and SEL Convenience models to arrive at the Limited; if you recognized those as new trims for this year, give yerself a gold star. All of those are powered by a 2.0L four-banger and a continuously variable transmission. The N-Line variant will cost $28,725 this year and continue to team a 1.6L turbo mill with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic.

On the hybrid side of its ledger, a new Blue trim brings the price down to $25,100 plus destination, a $1,150 reduction from the starting cost of a 2024 model. Finally, the tasty Elantra N, with its 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder mill and standard six-speed manual transmission, is stickered at $33,950 this year.


Moving up to the larger Sonata, we find a return of the mack SE trim which means a more approachable starting price of $26,650 plus fees. It has most of the good stuff including 16-inch alloy wheels, a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, and wireless smartphone mirroring. It’s an $1,100 walk to the SEL trim and a further $1,500 chit to the SEL with all-wheel drive. Each of those gets a 2.5L engine and 8-speed automatic. Popping for an N-Line nets the 2.5L turbo for $35,250.

Two hybrid trims are available in the 2025 Sonata – a $31,000 SEL and $37,450 Limited. It is in those models we find a powertrain anchored by a 2.0L four-banger and six-speed automatic. None of these prices listed for either the Elantra or Sonata include $1,150 in destination charges plus whatever other nonsense fees a greedy dealer is making up that particular day.


Both cars should begin appearing on dealer lots by this autumn.

    This is basically a BMW 1 series wrapped in Korean styling. Wow, have you driven one lately, handling reminiscent of the BMW 2002Tii with refinement that puts lexus to shame.

      ^ Imposter trying to get me banned by associating me to someone who was banned. Nice try.

    For those bemoaning the demise of the sedan, here's your chance to buy one.

      @Oberkanone - people complain about a lack of cheap cars and a lack of sedans. There are examples of both in the marketplace. Most don't want them. ........ I personally don't care. If car companies stopped making pickups, then I'd be concerned.

  • Npaladin2000 It looks like a good design but I wonder if they're worried about poaching Maverick Hybrid and F150 Powerboost sales. The Ranger hasn't been primarily a North American vehicle in a long time now. It was something that sold overseas in vast amounts that they also sell here (especially if you count the Everest). I'd like to see the option here but I don't know if it'll show up.
  • Nicholas Ford and GM never show proper long term commitment to any new market, and the lack of commitment leads to disastrous wastes of resources and poor market reception.
  • Jkross22 The best day to get mail is garbage day. Collect mail then walk by recycling bin and throw nearly all mail in trash. I wonder if they'll use these Scooby vans in cold weather cities where charging will be a crap shoot during cold snaps and battery life will be a joke for the same reason. Should've made a deal for TransitConnect vans. Those things were great. I guess Ford didn't bribe the right people.
