When the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid was launched in September 2020, it put two strong cards on the table - very generous equipment and an attractive price tag that started at NIS 182,000 and up to NIS 196,000.
Since then, a lot of gasoline has flowed on the roads and the price has climbed to NIS 199,000 for the entry-level version and NIS 219,000 for the equipped Limited version.
Now, the base slot at a price that is a few thousand shekels higher than that of the hybrid will be occupied by the turbo version of the Sonata that has not been marketed here so far.
