[They used to offer a V6 Sonata. Good power to weight ratio. Then they pulled the V6 offering, and you had to pay Genesis prices to get a nice engine in a sedan. Toyota still offered a 2018 a V6 Camry (although Honda has ditched the Accord).]
I suspect Toyota still has its V6 because the Prius is helping with blended EPA gas mileage requirements, whereas Honda has no Prius-equivalent to raise its gas mileage. So it’s going with turbo 4’s.
So its going with turbo 4s.
I had a Chrysler LeBaron with a turbo 4. I raced a Mustang V8 off a traffic light in California once and beat him. He said, “I gotta get a tuneup!” It was a terrific motor, but was so hot, it scorched the paint off the hood.
