Interesting soul: innovative power system
The tenth generation Sonata comes from Hyundai's third-generation i-GMP platform. This platform has the design features of short front overhang, long wheelbase, long rear overhang and low center of gravity. The advantages of the
i-GMP platform are as follows: First of all, the space is large, the length, width and height of the tenth-generation Sonata are 4955mm*1860mm*1445mm (1450mm), and the body height is 40mm lower than the previous generation model. The wheelbase is 2890mm, which is 60mm longer than the Accord. Compared with Accord, the front legroom is 84mm long, the front headroom is 42mm high, and the rear headroom is 40mm high. The second biggest advantage of the
i-GMP platform is that the body is lighter, and the body weight is reduced by more than 75 kilograms compared to the previous generation. The third major advantage is that the body strength is higher. Due to the use of more ultra-high strength steel and thermoformed steel, the average body strength is increased by more than 10%. At the same time, the engine compartment is adopted to effectively disperse the impact force absorbed by the body and ensure the safety of the cockpit.
In short, due to changes in structural design, the benefit of the i-GMP platform to drivers and passengers is that the vehicle has a stronger sense of driving control and is also very comfortable to ride.
The tenth-generation Sonata has two powertrains, namely the 1.5T engine and the 2.0T engine.
Among them, the 2.0T+8AT power combination fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 6.8L, while the 1.5T engine uses the world's first fourth-generation CVVD engine. This engine can not only control the opening time of valve , but also control the opening time of the valve, and then control the changes in the engine compression ratio, saving fuel when efficiency is needed, and providing more sufficient power when driving control is needed. With the 7DCT gearbox, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 5.6L.
The 10th generation Sonata provides 5 driving modes (comfort comfort/sport sports/eco energy saving/smart smart/custom customization) for consumers to choose from, and achieve one-click switching.
