Large chrome grille and headlamp assemblies that extend well into the fenders. Chrome trim extends from base of side windows along the fender to the headlight, a unique detail.
Dramatic styling includes a steeply raked windshield. SE's 18-inch wheels look much better than the GLS's 16s and Limited's 17s.
Coupe-like roofline. Tail light assemblies also wrap well around the Sonata's corners. Attractive curves cut into actual and especially perceived roominess. Dark in the SE.
Instrument panel effectively offers both form and function. Logically organized controls include four knobs. Warm blue highlights. Poorly trimmed wheel.
Firm and supportive, but could be more comfortably contoured. Plenty of legroom, but low cushion to permit decent headroom beneath fast roof line.
Large, 16.4 cubic foot trunk. The Mazda6's is 16.6, the Altima's 15.4. 200-horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. For more power, you need more cylinders or a turbo.
