Questions people ask
How much can a Hyundai Sonata tow?
Hyundai publishes no towing rating for it: "We do not recommend using this vehicle for trailer towing."
Can I add a hitch to the Sonata?
A hitch doesn't create a rating. Without one from Hyundai, there is no trailer weight the Sonata is rated to pull — check your owner's manual before fitting one.
