The Self-park 2020 Hyundai Sonata

Thanks in part to the star power of John Krasinski, Rachel Dratch, Chris Evans, and former Boston Red Sox player David Ortiz, most people have now seen the Self-park 2020 Hyundai Sonata featured in this very clever Super Bowl Commercial. The ad focuses on the newly available Remote Smart Parking Assist (RSPA) feature, or "Smaht Pahk”, which lets drivers stand aside and maneuver the vehicle into its spot. Hyundai has put up a how-to video on the Smart Park feature, to give you an idea of how it works. It also features an updated and strikingly good-looking four-door coupe-style body. The 2020 Hyundai Sonata isn't just one of the best looking mid-size sedans, its look also isn’t typical. It sits lower than the average sedan, giving it a sportier appearance. While its predecessor's design can best be described as inoffensive or anonymous, the 2020 Sonata really stands out. The Sonata is Hyundai’s longest-standing and most successful model, and the all-new 2020 version offers a bold, distinctive design, and numerous convenience and safety technologies: • Blind View Monitor • Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist • Front and rear parking assist sensors • Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist • Safe Exit Assist New features this year also include: • Highway Driving Assist • Remote Smart Parking Assist While there is a lot of functionality here, Hyundai has done an excellent job with the user interface, making all the complexity manageable and straightforward with little effort. The Hyundai 2020 Sonata currently comes in four grades: SE, SEL, SEL Plus and Limited. The performance-oriented N Line and a more eco-focused hybrid will join the lineup in the latter part of 2020.
