Hyundai Motor America has released the pricing for the recently announced 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The fully restyled 2011 Sonata is boasting best-in-class fuel economy, remarkably spacious interior, 198 horsepower power unit and a starting price of $19,195 for the well-equipped GLS model. The 200-horsepower SE model is price tagged at $22,595 and the top-of-the-line Limited model is available for $25,295.

"With the 2011 Sonata, our focus was a no-compromise engineering approach that would allow Sonata owners to have their cake, and eat it too. That focus led to a set of attributes that have not been seen in the midsize car category – attributes such as 35 mpg and 200 horsepower, bold design and an EPA Large Car interior, world-class quality and a class-leading value position" said John Krafcik, Hyundai Motor America president and CEO. "At Hyundai, we're big fans of resetting conventional wisdom, and we think we may have done it here with the 2011 Sonata."
