Sonata price in Pakistan starts at PKR 10,330,000 for the Sonata 2.0 and reaches PKR 16,521,000 for the Sonata N Line, based on ex-factory prices shown by Hyundai Nishat Motor and major car portals in October 2026. The Sonata is assembled locally, and Hyundai Nishat’s website still shows the prices set in July 2025. Registration, token tax, insurance and dealer charges are extra, so buyers should confirm the final figure with an authorised Hyundai dealer before paying a booking amount.
Anyone checking the Sonata price in Pakistan across the three variants will find a gap of PKR 6,191,000 between the cheapest and the most expensive.
| Variant | Ex-factory price (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Sonata 2.0 | 10,330,000 |
| Sonata 2.5 | 11,545,000 |
| Sonata N Line | 16,521,000 |
PakWheels lists the 2.5 as its base Sonata, so buyers who want the 2.0 should ask the dealer whether it is still being sold.
Sonata Price in Pakistan: Latest Ex-Factory Rates
Hyundai Nishat Motor prints “From PKR 10,330,000” beside the Sonata and “From PKR 16,521,000” beside the Sonata N Line on its website. PakWheels lists the 2.5 at PKR 11,545,000 and the N Line at PKR 16,521,000, so the figures match across sources. The step from the 2.0 to the 2.5 is PKR 1,215,000, and the step from the 2.5 to the N Line is PKR 4,976,000.
Sonata Variants Explained
- Sonata 2.0: the entry model, with a 2.0-litre petrol engine. Hyundai Nishat’s starting price points to this trim, but PakWheels no longer lists it, so availability should be confirmed.
- Sonata 2.5: the mid trim, with a 2,497 cc petrol engine, six airbags, a sunroof, a power boot, rear AC vents, navigation and push start.
- Sonata N Line: the top trim, with a turbocharged 2.5-litre engine, an 8-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox and a longer equipment list.
The Sonata is the 8th generation model and has no hybrid option in Pakistan, according to PakWheels.
Sonata Price in Pakistan: History Since Launch
| Date | What happened |
|---|---|
| 12 January 2025 | N Line launched at PKR 15,890,000, with a pre-launch partial booking of PKR 2,500,000 |
| Before 1 July 2025 | Sonata 2.0 at PKR 10,029,000 and Sonata 2.5 at PKR 11,205,000 |
| 1 July 2025 | Prices rose after the NEV adoption levy: 2.0 to PKR 10,330,000, 2.5 to PKR 11,545,000, N Line to PKR 16,521,000 |
| October 2026 | Hyundai Nishat’s website still shows the same starting prices |
Profit by Pakistan Today reported the launch of the locally assembled 8th generation N Line in January 2025. Pakistan Observer reported the July 2025 increases: PKR 301,000 on the 2.0, PKR 340,000 on the 2.5 and PKR 631,000 on the N Line. That is roughly 3% on the first two and about 4% on the N Line. PakWheels notes that PKR 481,000 of the N Line rise came from the NEV levy and PKR 150,000 from other factors.
One conflict needs a note. A PakWheels blog lists the new 2.0 price as PKR 10,239,000 (up PKR 210,000), but Hyundai Nishat’s own website and Pakistan Observer both give PKR 10,330,000.
Does Budget 2026-27 Change the Sonata Price in Pakistan?
The new Special Excise Duty in Budget 2026-27 targets imported petrol vehicles, and the 2026 hybrid tax changes moved prices on hybrids such as the Elantra Hybrid, which Hyundai now lists from PKR 10,761,000. The Sonata is a locally assembled petrol car, and Hyundai Nishat’s website still shows the July 2025 prices in October 2026, so no 2026 Sonata price change was found. Buyers should still ask the dealer which tax rate applies on the invoice date. For the hybrid side of the range, readers can see the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Price in Pakistan 2026 guide.
Sonata Specifications
| Specification | Reported detail |
|---|---|
| Sonata 2.0 engine | About 2,000 cc petrol, 152 hp, 192 Nm |
| Sonata 2.5 engine | 2,497 cc petrol, 180 hp, 232 Nm |
| Sonata N Line engine | 2.5-litre turbo petrol (Smartstream G2.5 T-GDi), 290 hp, 422 Nm |
| Gearbox | 6-speed automatic (2.0 and 2.5), 8-speed wet DCT with paddle shifters (N Line) |
| Drive | Front-wheel drive |
| 0 to 100 km/h (N Line) | About 6.3 seconds, as claimed |
| Length, width, height | About 4,900 to 4,910 mm, 1,860 mm, 1,445 mm |
| Wheelbase | 2,840 mm |
| Ground clearance | 135 mm (N Line), while one source lists 155 mm for the 2.5 |
| Boot space | About 510 litres (2.5), 480 litres (N Line) |
| Fuel tank | 60 litres |
| Seating | 5 passengers |
Ground clearance is the figure that differs most between sources, so buyers should confirm it for the variant they choose.
Safety and Features
- Sonata 2.5: six airbags, a sunroof, a power boot, rear AC vents, navigation and push start. A 2025 guide also mentions a head-up display and a digital gauge cluster on this trim.
- Sonata N Line: six airbags, heated and ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, a panoramic sunroof and a power boot, plus Hyundai SmartSense features such as forward collision avoidance, safe exit assist, rear cross-traffic collision avoidance and smart cruise control.
- Cabin and looks: the N Line has a 12.3-inch infotainment display, 19-inch alloy wheels and dual-tip exhausts, and it comes in eight colours.
- Sonata 2.0: one guide lists an 8-inch infotainment screen on the base trim.
Equipment lists vary by source, so the dealer’s printed specification sheet is the safest reference.
Sonata Mileage: What the Sources Say
- PakWheels lists 9 to 13 km per litre across the Sonata range.
- PakWheels also lists about 12 to 13 km per litre for the 2.0 and about 10 to 11 km per litre for the 2.5 in real-world driving.
- A Sonata 2.5 owner reported 10 to 11 km per litre in the city and 13 to 15 km per litre on the highway with a light foot.
- Ghandhara Nissan’s review puts real fuel average at 9 to 13 km per litre and says spare parts are costly.
With a 60-litre tank, a full fill-up at 10 km per litre covers roughly 600 km. The N Line’s turbo engine is likely to sit at the lower end of these figures when driven hard.
Sonata vs Civic RS, Elantra Hybrid and Other Rivals
| Model | Ex-factory price (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Hyundai Sonata 2.0 | 10,330,000 |
| Hyundai Sonata 2.5 | 11,545,000 |
| Honda Civic RS (July 2026 report) | 10,100,000 |
| Hyundai Elantra Hybrid | 10,761,000 |
| Toyota Corolla Altis Grande 1.8 | 7,669,000 to 7,709,000 |
The Sonata 2.0 costs PKR 230,000 more than the Civic RS, and the Sonata 2.5 costs PKR 784,000 more than the Elantra Hybrid. The Sonata is petrol only, while the Elantra Hybrid and the Civic offer different fuel and performance trade-offs, so buyers should compare running costs, features and resale. Readers can see the Honda Civic Price in Pakistan 2026 and Toyota Grande Price in Pakistan 2026 guides for those rivals.
Used Sonata Price in Pakistan
PakWheels listings for 2026 cars show a Sonata 2.5 asking PKR 12,150,000 in Islamabad, and the N Line asking PKR 17,300,000 in Lahore and PKR 17,800,000 in Islamabad. That puts the 2.5 about PKR 605,000 above its ex-factory price, and the N Line between PKR 779,000 and PKR 1,279,000 above. These are asking prices, not final sale prices, and they show that sellers of nearly new cars sometimes ask for a premium. Model year, mileage, condition and city all affect the used Sonata price in Pakistan, and buyers should check the service history before making an offer.
Warranty, Delivery and Financing
- Warranty: launch details for the N Line list 4 years or 100,000 km, whichever comes first. Buyers should ask whether the same cover applies to every variant.
- Delivery: PakWheels lists about 1 week for the 2.5 and the N Line, which depends on stock.
- Booking: the N Line launched with a PKR 2,500,000 partial booking before launch and full-price bookings after. Current booking terms should be confirmed with the dealer.
- Financing: Hyundai Nishat advertises its premium range on easy monthly installments under Hyundai Easy Own. Terms were not verified, so buyers should compare the total amount payable with bank offers.
Price Corrections: Figures to Avoid
| Source and figure | Problem |
|---|---|
| Whatisprice: 2.0 and 2.5 at PKR 9,929,000, marked as expected | Outdated expectation |

| PakWheels blog: 2.0 at PKR 10,239,000 | Conflicts with Hyundai Nishat’s website |
| CCP PAK: PKR 11,135,400 (USD 40,200) | Looks like a currency conversion |
| Driver.pk: 245 hp for the new Sonata | The Pakistani N Line makes 290 hp |
| PakWheels overview text: PKR 1.15 to 1.65 crore for both the 2.0 and 2.5 | The N Line is the top trim, and the 2.0 starts lower |
Who Should Buy Which Sonata
- The 2.0 suits buyers who want the lowest Sonata price in Pakistan and a comfortable D-segment sedan, if the dealer still has it.
- The 2.5 suits buyers who want more power and the full comfort list without paying for the N Line.
- The N Line suits buyers who want a sporty turbo sedan with heated and ventilated seats and driver assistance features.
- Buyers who care most about fuel economy may prefer to compare the Elantra Hybrid first.
Buying Checklist
Before agreeing to any Sonata price in Pakistan quoted by a dealer, buyers can work through the list below.
- Ask for the ex-factory price, the on-road price and the booking amount in writing.
- Confirm that the dealer still sells the exact variant, especially the 2.0.
- Ask for the printed specification sheet and check the airbag count and driver assistance features.
- Confirm the delivery date and what happens if the price changes before delivery.
- Ask for the warranty card and check what it covers.
- Compare the total cost of installments with bank financing.
- For a used car, request the service history and compare several recent listings.
Final Word on the Sonata Price in Pakistan
The Sonata price in Pakistan runs from PKR 10,330,000 to PKR 16,521,000 ex-factory, with the 2.5 in the middle at PKR 11,545,000. The sources agree closely on current prices, but they disagree on the 2.0 price in one blog, on ground clearance and on whether the 2.0 is still listed, so a written dealer quote remains the safest reference. This article will be revised if Hyundai Nishat announces a new price list.
