Hyundai Motor announced on the 25th (Tue) that it will launch its flagship mid-sized taxi model "2025 Sonata Taxi" and start selling it in earnest.


The 2025 Sonata Taxi is characterized by a 'taxi integrated terminal' that actively reflects the customer's voice and further improves the convenience of vehicle management and maintenance.

Hyundai Motor provides a 'taxi integrated terminal' that allows users to use the ▲ Kakao T taxi driver app ▲ TMAP navigation ▲ application-type taxi meter ▲ driving recorder through a 12.3-inch display in the vehicle, which was operated as separate devices in the 2025 Sonata Taxi.





In particular, by linking the steering wheel button of the vehicle with the dispatch service of the 'Kakao T Taxi Driver App', the convenience of use has been improved by automatically providing directions to 'Kakao Navi' when accepting a call card.


In addition, the application-type taxi meter is equipped with a precise fare calculation function using GPS and wheel rotation speed, and an automatic setting function for flexible pricing plan such as surcharges and overtime fees.


It will also introduce Hyundai TV Plus (Hyundai TV+), an advertising-based free streaming TV, to Sonata Taxi for the first time. The advantage of Hyundai TV Plus is that taxi drivers can watch various media during breaks as they can watch real-time news channels and various contents for free.





Hyundai Motor has reduced the burden of vehicle maintenance and maintenance by applying ▲ protection car mats and carpet ▲ maintenance hall for replacing engine oil and filter to 2025 Sonata taxis.

In particular, new PVC-based carpets have superior antifouling effects compared to carpets made of existing non-woven fabrics, supporting easy vehicle management in situations where the interior is contaminated by rain.


The engine oil replacement maintenance hole is designed to easily replace engine oil and filters by removing only the cover hole without the need to remove the entire undercover, and contributes to increased maintenance convenience and reduced maintenance cost burden along with hybrid type wipers that can be partially replaced.





The sale price of the 2025 Sonata Taxi starts at 25.95 million won and is sold only to platform transport operators and commercial taxi operators.


The 2025 Sonata Taxi is a newly installed integrated taxi terminal that has further improved the operating environment of taxi customers, a Hyundai Motor official said. "We will continue to enhance customer satisfaction by strengthening marketability from the perspective of taxi customers."
