The 2011 Hyundai Sonata is so popular that it’s forcing its siblings out. Hyundai has decided to move the production of the Santa Fe, which was built alongside the Sonata, to another plant so that enough Sonatas can be built to keep up with demand.
The 2011 Hyundai Sonata is built in Alabama, and currently shares the plant’s 300,000 vehicles per year production capacity with the Hyundai Santa Fe. The new Sonata’s popularity has forced Hyundai to move Santa Fe production to the Kia manufacturing plant in Georgia where the Sorento is built, according to Autoblog.
What this means for consumers is that the Sonata won’t be offered with any hefty incentives in the immediate future. With sales of the Sonata exceeding Hyundai’s expectations, the new mid-size car most likely won’t need to be put on sale for a while. Hyundai’s current financing incentive of a 2.9% interest rate for up to 60 months or 3.9% for 72 months will probably be the best deal available on the Sonata this year, so there’s no point in waiting for a better one to come around if you’re looking at the new Sonata. Don’t expect much wiggle room in the price of a 2011 Sonata right now either. With such a popular car, dealers probably won’t be willing to take much off the price.
The 2011 Hyundai Sonata starts at $19,195 and is one of the best-looking cars around at that price, so it’s no surprise that the car is flying off dealer lots.
