2020 Mazda6 Near Seaside

Seaside Mazda Shoppers COmpare The
2020 Mazda6 vs 2020 Hyundai Sonata

Although SUVs are very popular today, there’s still a demand for midsize family sedans like the 2020 Mazda6. There are many competitors in this crowded segment, and most of them do a pretty good job getting from point A to point B. But no other vehicle in this class delivers sporty styling, outstanding handling and a beautifully designed interior like the Mazda6. According to the Mazda dealer near Seaside, the Mazda6 is a car that automotive enthusiasts can drive with no reservations.

Some buyers looking for a midsize sedan may be considering the 2020 Hyundai Sonata. We’ll examine both models side by side and determine which one comes out on top.

Compare Performance and Handling

Performance
The 2020 Mazda6 has two engines to choose from. Seaside Mazda shoppers who choose the Mazda6’s 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine will enjoy more power than they can get from either of the 2020 Hyundai Sonata’s engines. The Mazda6’s upgraded powerplant develops 250 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. The Sonata’s most powerful engine is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that only makes 180 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque.

Handling
You’ll get better handling and a more engaging ride from the Mazda6 than you will with the Hyundai Sonata. U.S. News & World Report stated that the Mazda6 features nimble handling, calling it “one of the most enjoyable sedans in its class to drive.” The magazine found the Sonata’s handling to be unenthusiastic.

The 2020 Mazda6’s features standard G-Vectoring Control Plus. When the Mazda6 takes tight turns or corners, this system aids handling by applying light brakeforce to the vehicle’s outer wheel and shifting its weight forward to improve traction. There’s no similar system in the Hyundai Sonata.

detects objects hidden by the vehicle’s blind spot. Blind-spot monitoring is only standard on the Sonata’s
more expensive upper trim levels.

The 2020 Hyundai Sonata is a good car, but when you hold it up against the 2020 Madza6, it’s easy to
see that the Sonata is outclassed. The Mazda6 has a more powerful engine, better handling and better
safety scores than the Sonata.
