As expected, the 2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid broke cover at the ongoing New York Auto Show and Hyundai was understandably excited about the unveiling. As per the company sources, the Sonata Hybrid is more powerful than the Ford Fusion, Lexus HS250h, Nissan Altima, and even the Toyota Camry. Hyundai was however clear in the stating that its fuel efficiency is not as good as the Ford Fusion Hybrid though the other three hybrid commuters fall short of the standard the Sonata sets. Sonata Hybrid features a combination of an all-aluminum 2.4-liter engine that churns 169hp and a 40hp electric motor. The combination is mated to a new six-speed automatic transmission.
