Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Toyota Crown than the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota Crown.

Convenience
The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid will require fewer stops at the gas station than the Toyota Crown, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is clearly a better financial choice over the Toyota Crown.

Dimensions
The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid is a little wider than the Toyota Crown, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Toyota Crown.

Handling
The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid has a smaller turning radius than the Toyota Crown, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid has less horsepower than the Toyota Crown, so it will probably be somewhat slower.
