Hyundai reveals secret weapon to take on Toyota

AutoExec Summary
Hyundai is aiming to make its upcoming Sonata mid-sized sedan more eco-friendly by installing solar panels on the roof, allowing for up to 3.6km of emissions-free driving per day. However, the car must be in bright sunlight for six hours to reach that target, and the energy harnessed from the sun is minimal. The Sonata will primarily rely on a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine and an electric motor as part of its hybrid system, with a fuel use of 5.0 litres per 100km. The new Sonata also features a digital key and remote access capabilities. Hyundai is reinforcing its focus on hybrid and electric propulsion, although the hybrid version of the Sonata is still under review for release later this year.
