He has the timing right when making them punch lines, which it makes it even more funnier and catches you off guard. That's his swag which makes him unique.
Got my Sonata N Line last week after watching your videos over and over. Got it in Glowing Yellow. Really does have nice performance, and it's practical performance for what an average person would use. If you get more power you won't be able to use it around the city unless you're going to a track meet. Your videos are so detailed I watch them all, even on cars I'll never get just to see the different stuff out there.
Hyundai has an outstanding quality and now with a 4 door sport car!, I have two audis and my wife owns a palisade, my two audis just last year broke more than the 7 hyundais she had in the last 10 yrs. Some of them were just oil and filter change...
Manufacturers are going away from the fog lights. Less wiring for them to worry about and less modifying the front bumper to implement them. Companies rather spend their focus and money on tech on the interior cus these companies know that the interior is a very important area to promote sales today
Same here - Shimmering Silver Pearl. It's a very stylish and classy car for the highly reasonable price you pay. In addition, I'm very impressed with the comfort considering its notable performance.
Bought my new 2022 Hampton Gray N line about 3 weeks ago mostly because of the looks and performance and I love it. To me it's got classy, traditional styling. When I brought it home, I was surprised at how much larger it is than I thought. I find the ride to be quite solid and smooth probably because of the big wheels and tires. In addition, the radio has a great subwoofer and tweeters making the sound system amazing.
"did they run out of Nline badges?" 😄 Good call as always. Definitely bold styling here I dig it but like you say would be interesting to see how well this ages.
It does seem like they are dying but they will make a big comeback in the next 5 years. The driving capability of CUV's isn't getting any better and with pricing just getting higher there is going to be another shift.
I rented this car for my road trip/vacation from Philly to Myrtle Beach and was BLOWN AWAY. The acceleration is so quick and smooth even out of sport mode and the odd part is the ride comfort and smoothness at higher speeds I give this car a 10/10 & I'll be purchasing one for my birthday in August....
Great review! I have been waiting for these cars for quite a while. I have a 2018 Accord Sport 2.0 and am seriously considering trading it for the Sonata N or K5 GT. That said, the car I really want is the Kia Stinger but it might be a bit out of my price range. How do these compare to a 3.3 liter Stinger performance wise? I gotta say, Honda has to up it's game. These 2 cars are offering more of everything for less price. An Accord Touring is literally very close in price to a well appointed Stinger and the Stinger is in a whole different league. I think people are finally starting to realize that Hondas are way overpriced for what they offer. Tbe TLX is a great example. Slow as a turtle yet at least $10K more than both of these cars with less options. I am gonna take a guess that the Type S coming out in the Spring will offer about the same performance as the N-line and Kia GT at $20K+ more money and get smoked by the Stinger and G70. Now that I finished my rant. Would you reccomend trading my 2.0 Accord for one of these? It has about 46K miles on it. (had to get the transmission replaced at 10K miles, fine now though) I am just trying to figure whether it would be a significant upgrade or not or just wait and pay it down, then get a Stinger. Again, really appreciate these well thought out informative videos which very much help people make these types of decions...
This performance line for Hyundai is going to be very competitive imo. I'm gonna zonk the wheels omit the silver part and just keep the black 5 spoke portion and you have some gorgeous feet on that car. 290 hp and 311 torque and no CVT.....that's a winner!
I’ve driven the 2020 Hyundai Sonata limited 1.6T which the dealership allowed me to drive that brand new vehicle while my vehicle was in shop. And them cars are excellent on gas and fast acceleration.👍🏽👍🏽
Love the headlamps and strong, front fascia, slightly better looking than the K5. A big zonk for me are the daytime running lights - wish they had cut it off at the headlamp instead of blending into the trim/hood. Call me old school, just looks off. Overall great improvement from previous models though. Great vid!
Hi Joe a great review as always. That hyundai sonata is so gorgeous,it looks so cool. Joe, I'm a fan of your reviews and I really miss the twinkies, the real twinkies that you bought the other day on another car review. The twinkies company needs to sponsor your channel, seriously. Please try to bring real twinkies to demonstrate the pockets spaces etc. Awesome work from you and Laurie👏
hyundai stands 4 h - hope y - you u - understand n - nothing’s d - drivable a - and i - inexpensive so if u buy a hyundai, u have dogshit taste in cars lol
Not just that the Sonata is my favorite Hyundai vehicle, but I love how you were talking about putting KitKats in the center console because KitKats are my favorite Candies ever including Reese's and Toblerones.
What did you overall prefer the Sonata N Line or the Kia K5 GT? I am having a really really hard time deciding which one to get. I like the outside of the K5 more but the inside of the Sonata more I think. But overall between performance and handling and tech did you prefer 1 over the other?
WHY ARE DAYTIME LIGHTS NEEDED ? IF YOU CANT SEE A CAR IN A THE DAYTIME . STAY THE F OFF THE RODE HELEN ! USELESS AND STUPID. WHY ANYBODY THINK IT IS AN OPTION IS REALLY CONCERNING.
finally Hyundai is talking my language 300hp about time they give their sedans some power. Not a fan of 2 liter turbos but that hp and torque now thats what a sport sedan should have
If you still want a turbo engine but want more features like leather, 360 camera, heads up display and more check out the limited. The 1.6T isn’t quite as fast...but it has a much more luxurious interior and more tech/convenience speakers. The N Line is basically a mid range SEL plus trim with a larger faster turbo
I believe what changed at Hyundai is that they got one of the head designers at BMW who was charged with rebranding and getting the genesis line going. Really beautiful vehicle
I think the rear diffuser area would look better in flat black instead of all that gloss black. Overall I think the Kia looks better. Reliability is still questionable but time will tell. Thanks for sharing it Joe. Nice job! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I have to hand it to you Joe, I couldn't do what you do everyday to get a paycheck. Your work definitely has its pluses including traveling by air to car shows etc, but I want a paycheck every two weeks from the federal government with benefits. So I wish you EVERY success you deserve. And please keep up the good work reviewing Toyota's and Lexus'. My favorite cars and trucks. Dan
Hyundai , Kia , genesis has bin killing it with design and features .... now they need to find that perfect note( not speaker pumped ) for their performance models
Agree totally on the need for AWD with all this power...continues to amaze me that so many manufacturers still use the gloss black plastic on their interiors...why is that??
Some are at dealerships, if you look it up through cars dot com or car gurus, you’ll have to filter out the trim to as unknown since the websites have not added the N-Line trim to their filters. I have not seen any Kia K5 GT at dealerships.
@@irepresent9022 if you are referring to the lights flickering, the camera can’t pick up the full beam on car videos so screens and other led things will appear to flash on and off
Great review as always. A very nice looking car although I think the front grill is too big like a Lexus. Personal preference would be the Kia K5 but would be happy with each given they are almost identical except for cosmetic differences. Hyundai and Kia are making great cars.
Great review! Kia and Hyundai are most definitely headed in the right direction... What's the difference between the 7 speed-DCT and the 8 speed- DCT? In terms of performance, driving characteristic, reliability? I'm just curious.

@@samporter5934 maybe higher HP car benefits from one more gear? Lol Veloster N has the 8 speed wet clutch... I really would like to know the key differences between the two, though lol
@@richgenixI agree, I've said this before when it comes to this segment the Accord along with the Camry is the benchmark. The reliability and the Accord nameplate does add to it. Is the Hyundai faster? maybe. Is it better looking? maybe. Does it handle better? maybe. More features? maybe. Better value? maybe. However the Honda Accord is the Honda Accord.
The mazda 6 has an old 6 speed transmission that need to go!! And the tech in it is old. Second, it's not even close to the n line handling. I think that even the sonata limited 1.6T is a better then the 6. ua-cam.com/video/TIM9pnxo5nc/v-deo.html
@FiatDuster wouldn't say that. Braking distance of the N line is under 100 ft. And lighter weight I beileve in the N line to the 6 turbo. Plus 245 wide tires not 225. Strong feeling this would kill it in the corners as well
Your video's are awesome it really helps me make buying cars easier , after I watch your video i know exactly what I'm getting when I make a purchase , I'm lookin at at K5 gt or this Sonata N line leaning towards the sonata for the 2023 model

You are one of the best car reviewers on UA-cam. Keep up the great work!

LED fog lights would make that front end look really nice.❤️
AGREED!
An advantage of the K5 GT. Quite a few vehicles have eliminated foglights with the trend to LED headlights. Guess they feel they aren't needed.
Fog lights are kinda ass
Manufacturers are going away from the fog lights. Less wiring for them to worry about and less modifying the front bumper to implement them. Companies rather spend their focus and money on tech on the interior cus these companies know that the interior is a very important area to promote sales today
Honestly a car doesn't look complete until there are fog lights.
I bought one of these last month…. Absolutely LOVE it!! I got it in shimmering silver!
Awesome nice color, I bought mine in Hampton Grey, no regrets
Same here - Shimmering Silver Pearl. It's a very stylish and classy car for the highly reasonable price you pay. In addition, I'm very impressed with the comfort considering its notable performance.
Been dying for them to make one for how long and finally they did it.

Yes it dose
"did they run out of Nline badges?" 😄 Good call as always. Definitely bold styling here I dig it but like you say would be interesting to see how well this ages.
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
I think the Sonata will age better than the K5, not as polarizing imo. Both are very attractive in their own right though.
I know right!
One of the most beautiful cars ever made, I've been waiting a while for this one!
I saw this videos like 3 times. I’m really thinking on getting this car. Super nice ride. Tell Lori I said thank you for her camera work.
So glad there's still sedans out there. This one is nice. Thanks to Lori, for another great vid!
I totally agree with you! I appreciate you showing Lori some love!
Sedans never died. Sure, they are dying, but they never died... yet
It does seem like they are dying but they will make a big comeback in the next 5 years. The driving capability of CUV's isn't getting any better and with pricing just getting higher there is going to be another shift.

Primer with a heavy layer of clearcoat. Ha
Actually this color looks pretty good in person.
2:20 I agree. They should've put LED fog lamps instead of fake vents on that side. Oher than that, the wheels looks beautiful too

The mazda 6 has an old 6 speed transmission that need to go!! And the tech in it is old. Second, it's not even close to the n line handling. I think that even the sonata limited 1.6T is a better then the 6. ua-cam.com/video/TIM9pnxo5nc/v-deo.html
@FiatDuster wouldn't say that. Braking distance of the N line is under 100 ft. And lighter weight I beileve in the N line to the 6 turbo. Plus 245 wide tires not 225. Strong feeling this would kill it in the corners as well
2021 is the year Raiti shows us cars' lights!!
LOL! You are hilarious!
Lmao this so off topic but I knew this area looked so familiar nd i realized it's the car dealership down the street😭😭
I'm really liking this car Joe! I'm curious is the N branding to Hyundai like what SRT is to FCA?
Dr. Pepper?? You abandoned Mr. Pibb!!!! Great video as usual!
LOL! You are awesome!
Your video's are awesome it really helps me make buying cars easier , after I watch your video i know exactly what I'm getting when I make a purchase , I'm lookin at at K5 gt or this Sonata N line leaning towards the sonata for the 2023 model
Thanks Stephen that is really awesome! I am so glad that you are part of the Raiti's Rides family!
“You won’t squirt cream all over this leather...!”
Jesus man, you and your Twinkie’s! Love your videos!
Thanks for letting me share the laughs and the cars with you!
@@RaitisRides nah man, thank YOU for injecting your personality into these car reviews 👌 love from South Africa 🇿🇦
He was talking about Twinkie’s?
I saw one of these today and was like “ok let me see what Joe says about it”. Caught my eye
Hyundai and Kia are killing it. This model is looking good, but I can't help think the front end looks like a guppy or trout or catfish 😉
You are so very right!
Lmbohhhhhh I was thinking the same thing
Raiti's rides is my favorite tv show i like it more than anything on netflix
