How the 2025 Hyundai Sonata's AWD Enhances Winter Driving in Nova Scotia
December 19 2024,
Winter in Nova Scotia presents unique challenges for drivers. With icy roads, sudden snowfalls, and winding rural highways, reliable transportation isn’t just a convenience—it's a necessity. Enter the 2025 Hyundai Sonata, equipped with Hyundai's HTRAC All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system, specifically designed to offer unmatched confidence and control on slippery terrain. Central Nova Hyundai is proud to present this innovative sedan, perfect for the Maritimes' unpredictable weather.
Let’s explore how the Sonata's AWD system elevates your driving experience, its key winter-ready features, and why it’s an excellent choice for navigating Nova Scotia’s winter roads.
The Power of HTRAC All-Wheel Drive
The 2025 Hyundai Sonata's optional HTRAC AWD system ensures optimal power distribution between the front and rear wheels. Unlike traditional AWD setups, HTRAC dynamically adjusts based on road conditions, driving style, and speed. Whether you’re dealing with black ice on a bridge or a sudden snow squall on a highway, this system reacts in real-time to maximize traction and stability.
- Enhanced Stability: By distributing torque efficiently, HTRAC reduces the chances of wheel spin, even on icy or uneven roads.
- Improved Handling: Cornering in winter conditions feels more secure, as AWD ensures better grip across all four wheels.
- Fuel Efficiency: Hyundai has engineered the AWD system to engage only when needed, helping maintain an impressive combined fuel economy of 8.6L/100km.
Additional Features That Shine in Winter
Beyond AWD, the 2025 Sonata boasts a suite of features designed to handle Nova Scotia’s harsh winters:
- Heated Front and Rear Seats: Stay warm during those early morning commutes, with heated seating available in all trims.
- Heated Steering Wheel: Enjoy the comfort of a toasty grip, a feature Nova Scotians will appreciate in sub-zero temperatures.
- Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go: Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles, even in stop-and-go winter traffic.
- Remote Start with Climate Control: Pre-warm your Sonata and defrost the windows before stepping out into the cold.
- LED Automatic Headlights: Clear illumination ensures better visibility during blizzards or on foggy coastal roads.
- Rain-Sensing Wipers: These activate automatically, providing a clear view in rain, sleet, or snow.
Built for the Maritimes
The Sonata’s design isn’t just about performance—it’s about adapting to local needs. With a spacious interior, the 60/40 split-folding rear bench seat makes carrying winter gear or hockey equipment effortless. Additionally, the available N Line model offers 19” alloy wheels and sportier suspension tuning for those who crave performance, even in winter conditions.
