2025 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID Limited

The auction record lists the vehicle with a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE and REAR END as the primary damage classification. The visible extensive rear damage supports the stated REAR END primary-damage code; however, the SALVAGE CERTIFICATE status itself cannot be confirmed from the available images. The rear bumper cover is severely detached, broken, and hanging below the vehicle, with separated sections, exposed mounting areas, internal components, and wiring. Damage extends across the full width of the rear bumper, including both rear corners. The lower trunk lid is severely buckled and sharply creased, with its lower edge displaced above the bumper area. The rear body panels and bumper mounting areas also show extensive crushing and irregular deformation, particularly across the left rear corner and the lower center and right sections beneath the trunk lid. Based on the documented damage, extensive collision repair will be required. The exposed rear components, mounting points, and wiring should be physically inspected, along with the trunk structure and any systems located behind the damaged panels, before purchase or repair approval. The VIN decodes as a 2025 Hyundai Sonata sedan, Limited trim, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Co. in South Korea. It is identified as a hybrid electric vehicle with a 2.0-liter GDI NU PE gasoline engine and a lithium-ion battery system. The decoded equipment includes standard ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear visibility assistance, and parking assistance.
