Sonata Hybrid a great ride

Metroland Media Conventional wisdom says it’s not a matter of if, but when oil prices begin to climb again.

Until then, great products like Hyundai’s 2016 Sonata Hybrid will be a tough sell as consumers pay less attention to fuel economy than they do when prices skyrocket.

That’s a shame because the gaselectric Sonata Hybrid is a vehicle that can provide outstanding fuel economy and at the same time perform no different driving wise than the regular gasoline-powered Sonata.

This is the second generation of Hyundai’s intermediate hybrid five-passenger sedan.

Unlike the regular Sonata that is built in the U.S., the hybrid and a new-for-2016 plug-in Sonata hybrid are assembled at the Asan plant in South Korea.

Hyundai has improved fuel efficiency in this new version of the Sonata Hybrid by using a 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder that replaces the 2.4-litre engine in the outgoing model. It is combined with a 38 kW electric motor inside the six-speed automatic transmission housing where it replaces the torque converter.

Many of the manufacturers have names for their hybrid systems and Hyundai’s is Blue Drive.

The 2.0-litre engine in the Blue Drive system produces 154 hp and 140 lb/ft of torque, while the electric motor adds 51 hp and 151 lb/ ft of torque for a combined 193 hp.

For 2016, the Sonata Hybrid has a number of design elements that

The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is spacious, five-passenger mid-size sedan that offers sub 6.0 L/100 km fuel economy.

differentiate it from the traditional Sonata.

Features such as a unique front grille, front and rear bumpers, front fenders, front and rear lights, chrome side moldings, badges and new wheels set it apart from the gasoline-powered Sonata and help it achieve an amazing coefficient of drag of 0.24, best in class, according to Hyundai.

A key feature of the Blue Drive system is a new lithium-polymer battery pack that is 13 per cent more powerful than the outgoing

one with a capacity of 1.62 kWh. More importantly, the battery now sits below the trunk floor, meaning more rear seat legroom and a 10 per cent increase in cargo volume to 380 litres. It also allows for 60/40 split folding rear seats that open up even more cargo volume when required.

For 2016, the Sonata Hybrid comes in three flavours, Hybrid, Limited and Ultimate, starting at $29,649. This compares with a starting price of $24,749 for the GL base model in the gasoline

version.

That’s nearly a $5,000 price differential and one that many consumers wouldn’t consider with the cost of fuel as it is today. Buyers tend to think with their wallets and until fuel prices start to climb, it will be difficult to persuade them that this is a good deal.

But for those who put fuel economy above performance and require a midsize sedan, the Sonata Hybrid makes a lot of sense.

The cabin is a pleasant place, Turn to page W5

LEFT: Power driving the front wheels comes from a 2.0-litre DOHC 16-valve inline four-cylinder engine (154 hp, 140 lb/ft of torque) and an electric motor (51 hp, 151 lb/ft) for a combined 193 hp. RIGHT: These special alloy wheels have slotted spokes to prevent air from going into the wheel wells.

When Porsche announced it was going to build a compact CUV, more than a few eyebrows were raised, but it proved to be a wise decision.

The Macan, as Porsche predicted, is now its largest selling vehicle in the model lineup.

Starting out with a base S and toptrim Turbo, this spring saw the addition of the GTS designed to slot in between the two.

The GTS features more power, re-engineered suspension and a serious connectivity enhancement for starters.

The 3.0-litre direct injection twin-turbo V6 is based on the engine in the Macan S, but with GTS specific tuning for 360 hp and 369 lb/ft of torque.

The all-wheel-drive is similar to the Macan Turbo with a sevenspeed dual clutch transmission that actuates an electro-hydraulic, multi-plate clutch to variably engage the front axle depending on traction needs.

Fuel consumption is rated at 13.8/10.3/12.3L/100 km city/highway/combined.

The Macan GTS accelerates from 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds with a top speed of 159 mph with the optional Sport Chrono Package fitted.

Tow rating for the GTS is 750 kg (1,653 lb) unbraked and 2,000 kg (4,409 lb) braked.

Air suspension, including Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), is standard on the Macan GTS that provides adjustable ride height and damper stiffness.

It optimally tunes the car for virtually any driving condition.

Macan GTS specific suspension tuning also includes a 10 mm reduction of standard ride height, compared to the Macan Turbo, further lowering the centre of gravity.

For this kind of power and handling, performance braking is critical with 360 mm front rotors with six-piston calipers and 330 mm single piston calipers at the rear — all painted red.

True sportscar performance from a compact crossover Continued from W1 Externally, black accents are used liberally from the window trim in gloss black to the lower body in matte and the standard 20-inch RS Spyder wheels in satin black.

The Macan GTS will be available with optional LED headlights that feature Porsche’s unique four-point daytime running lights, as well as a cornering light function.

The standard Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system features Sound Package Plus, eight speakers, a USB and aux-in interface, SiriusXM and HD radio, and Bluetooth capability.

An optional PCM with Navigation module ($1,980) includes a hard-drive based navigation system that supports 3D navigation display, satellite image overlays and dynamic route calculation.

“

The Macan GTS consumes kilometres with ease and returns crisp and precise steering and handling to the driver.

”

There are two other optional connectivity systems starting with Porsche Connect that includes Apple CarPlay. Opt for Porsche Connect Plus (required navigation) and the system provides hot-spot capable LTE modem for connectivity.

Passengers can surf the web, while the driver can access real-time traffic, and even transfer destinations and calendar appointments from a smartphone into the PCM.

New to the model lineup, the 2017 Porsche Macan GTS can be recognize by the liberal use of black accents and the special 20-inch RS Spyder wheels in satin black.

A very interesting option ($1,360) is Park Assist that has a 360-degree camera system including one at the front. Combined with the parking sensors, an image of what is ahead of you pops up on the centre stack screen so you can see what it is.

Get behind the wheel and it’s a mixture of old and new with the classic three-pot main instrument cluster with big, analogfaced tach front and centre just where Dr. Porsche intended it to be.

To the left is the smaller speedo but on the right in the other smaller gauge is the

The interior retains Porsche design cues such as the three-pot instrument panel and ignition to the left of the steering wheel along with leading edge ride and handling/infotainment controls.

driver info centre that can depict just about anything from tire pressures all the way to navigation.

This would not be a Porsche if the ignition key was not on the left and it is – sort of.

In this day of electronic start buttons, Porsche does have an electronic multifunction fob, but over on the left, there is a tab instead of a key you twist to bring the Macan to life.

On the centre console there are a dizzying array of buttons controlling many functions such as Sport mode and damper settings, ride height, opening up the exhaust for a richer tone and one marked “Off Road” which the Macan does surprisingly well.

But the GTS is about driving and that I did — up and down some wonderful roads that rise and fall, twist and flow on their way to Lake Huron.

This is perfect GTS country where it consumes kilometres with ease and returns crisp and precise steering and handling to the driver.

Go to Sport, activate the suspension and unbaffle the exhaust and the fun begins.

The front air intakes on either side of the grille are functional and feed cooling air to quell brake fade when the going gets serious.

Like the 911, the rear tires are wider than the fronts, and with the constantly compensating Porsche-style AWD, you can drive this like a sportscar — improbable as that may sound - but it’s true.

When you combine the prowess of Porsche with a crossover that buyers are falling over themselves to obtain, you create a winner - something the brand has surely done.

Based the 3.0-litre, DOHC twin scroll turbo V6 in the S model, it is enhanced to 360 hp and 369 lb/ft of torque

Hybrid Sonata packs powerful battery, more cargo space Continued from W1 quiet when the car is in gasoline mode and dead quiet in electric mode when all you hear is a bit of tire and wind noise and that’s about it.

What makes the Sonata Hybrid so appealing to me is the fact that it feels and drives like a regular car. That may sound crazy, but with many other hybrids there is a noticeable difference.

I like the fact that it has a traditional six-speed automatic transmission, not a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), which many other manufacturers are turning too because of their better fuel efficiency. There are differences with CVTs, particularly the “whine” that many of them produce.

“

The cabin is a pleasant place, quiet when the car is in gasoline mode and dead quiet in electric mode when all you hear is a bit of tire and wind noise

”

Another plus is that the brakes have a very normal feel even though it is through the regenerative braking that electric energy is produced.

There are three driving modes to select from— Normal, Sport and Eco. Accelera-

tion from 0-100 km/h takes about eight seconds, which is fast enough in my books.

5.8L/100 km in most of my runs with the car, slightly above that when it was straight highway driving.

Seating is comfortable and the interior has an upscale look and feel, something you wouldn’t have said years ago with a Hyundai.

features, which include Electronic Stability Control, Vehicle Stability Management, Traction Control, ABS and a rearview camera also comes standard. While projector headlamps are standard on the Sonata Hybrid, powerful Bi-Xenon HID headlamps with automatic High Beam Assist (HBA) are available.

Also available are Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and a Lane Departure Warning System.

A luxury car touch on the Hybrid is Hyundai’s proximity-activated automatic “Smart Trunk” opening system as standard.

With the improvements on this new generation model, the Sonata Hybrid is now a true contender in the mid-size hybrid sedan market. If that’s your shopping territory, be sure to give this car a good long look.
