Used 2002 Hyundai Elantra Hatchback Consumer Reviews
A fun car for a cheap price!
The Hyundai Elantra GT 2002 is an amazing car for the price! I have the automatic with the moonroof/abs and traction control. So far, I have not run into any problems of the car being too slow. If your buying this car, your main goal isn't to burn rubber against a corvette so who cares about the speed. But it's honestly fast enough for everyday driving and fun as heck in the city; mainly because of its cornering ability. It grips the road with ease at every turn. If you get the hatchback styling, you'll always have enough room for more than enough stuff to throw in the trunk, especially with the seats down. All in all, a worthy investment!
My Cheap SAAB..
After a long search for my second 'New' car the GT won! I've owned over 20 cars (most used), but the Hyundai has been one of the best picks so far. Fit and finish are great as well as the options included. The interior is very comfortable for me and my wife, and plenty of useable room. Even with the auto it has good power, and I've been averaging 25-30 mpg with mainly city driving. Handling is very good for a front wheel drive car, and the stock tires hold well in snow/rain and dry conditions.

Best car ever
Bought this as my first brand new vehicle, had plenty of used ones. This car was the bargain of the century. I got the loaded GT hatch in black and the ONLY complaint I have is that the paint wasn't the absolute best, but I never has any rust or paint loss. With plenty of pep I could pass at 60MPH with the AC on no problem. Tons and Tons of cargo space with the seats folded flat. I drove this car freaking everywhere in every climate at every altitude this country has to offer and had zero problems with performance or build quality. Anyone complaining about this vehicle either bought it used from someone who didn't care for it, or bought it high mileage. BEST.CAR.EVER.
2002 Hyundai Elantra GT- Fun, Value
I think this car is an undiscovered value. All other 5 door Hatchbacks I look at were over $2,000 more plus no 10 year - 100,000 mile warranty! Also the list of standard equipment is impressive (leather, 4-wheel dics brakes, alloy wheels, CD, etc., keyless/alarm, etc.) Great driving around town or on the inter-state!
So far so Good
When I first saw the Elantra GT on the lot I was shocked that Hyundai had actually put some effort into styling. The GT looks European and the suspension backs up its image. The GT handles superbly for a car of its price and the engine is smooth and powerful, especially on the freeway. One test drive and this car will blow the others in its class out of the water.
