The 2019 Hyundai Sonata is the only model on our list that is priced lower than the 2019 Optima. However, after getting a look at the standard features, there's a reason for that. The new Sonata lacks stand-out safety features like the Optima's Front Active Headrests. Would you sacrifice your safety for a price?
