Hyundai has unveiled the redesigned 2024 Sonata for the North American market, and it comes with a notable feature. Buyers in this region now have the option to choose all-wheel drive, a first for the Sonata. This resolves the speculation that began with the spy photos of Sonata AWD, which we captured a while ago. The all-wheel drive system, known as HTRAC (Hyundai TRACtion), is similar to the one found in Hyundai SUVs. It actively distributes power between the front and rear wheels according to the conditions. While those residing in colder climates may appreciate the enhanced grip of all-wheel drive, those expecting a sporty Sonata N Line AWD or a hybrid option will be disappointed. Currently, all-wheel drive is only available with the naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine.
