2014 Ford Fusion vs Hyundai Sonata

2014 Hyundai Sonata

The 2014 Hyundai Sonata’s breakout into the mid-sized car segment in 1985 was met with some skepticism. In the years since, however, all doubt in the quality of Hyundai vehicles have been replaced with the reality of superior craftsmanship and engineering excellence. The recent facelift for the Sonata includes noticeable exterior augmentations as well as additions to the interior, including optional touchscreen display for audio systems.

Vehicle Highlights 2.4L, 4-Cylinder, GDI with Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing Engine A fuel economy as low as 7.3L/100 Km combined Awarded the 2014 5-Star Overall Crash Safety Rating by NHTSA Available in a fuel efficient hybrid model

The 2014 Hyundai Sonata maintains a stylish, sporty look that would have easily suited their luxury segment and instead maintains a leading position in its segment.

2014 Ford Fusion

The 2014 Ford Fusion offers a smooth ride no matter which engine option you choose. Unfortunately, this year’s Ford Fusion’s iconic grille and accented lines on the hood leave an image that is somewhat reminiscent of a vintage space-heater. With a low ground clearance, the Ford Fusion has to be careful when approaching speed bumps and potholes along roads. However, the Fusion is well-equipped with excellent safety options, ensuring the Ford Fusion is prepared for what the road will throw your way.

Vehicle Highlights Three EcoBoost Engine options to choose from A fuel economy as low as 8-Litres/100km city and 5.3-Litres highway Available in a hybrid model Impressive space in front and rear seats

The 2014 Ford Fusion’s optional integrated voice-activated Navigation system and other technology packages provide modern conveniences but at a price that might dissuade those looking for a vehicle on a budget.

Unfortunately, even with these features, the 2014 Ford Fusion’s impression doesn’t linger and any novelty felt at the beginning is quickly replaced by a realization of the vehicle’s well concealed averageness.

Important design decisions went into making the 2014 Hyundai Sonata the midsized car it is today while ensuring its place in the future. Whether this is going to be your family car or your business car, onlookers will remember the iconic Sonata.
