My first elantra was bought in 2000. Had an accident in 2006 and bought another one... Wouldn't purchase another car. For the price, waranty, comfort, reliablity, style, etc. What other kind of transportation is there? n-o-n-e. Keep up the great job in manufacturing such a tremedous car for the $$$$$... You can keep your Benz, beemer, Lexus, vet, etc. Give my a Hyundai anytime (and you still have money left for gas!)
Not a car for colder climates

I bought this car new in Sept. 2006. I wish I would have known how badly it drives in slippery and snowy weather and I have the manual transmission!! The windshield washer fluid pump freezes in weather below 32 degrees and it makes it impossible to clean your windshield when something should splash on it. Above 32 degrees, it works perfectly. Go figure.

I am writing this review because I am extremely frustrated by an intermittent problem with the air conditioner. Basically, sometimes the air comes on, and sometimes it doesn't. It can take as long as 5-10 minutes for the fan to kick in. Imagine what that's like when it's 90 degrees out? Problem is, it's intermittent. I've had it in to the dealer. But if it's working when I bring it in, they can't figure out the problem. So, I will likely have to live with this as long as I have the car. I have to use my car for my job, so this is pretty awful. Every summer, it's the same thing. No more Hyundais for me.

I bought my Elantra back in April 2006. I still have it to this day in 2024!! At this time, in November 2024, the car has 480,000 miles on it!! It still runs as good as the day I drove it out of the dealer lot. In the last 18 years I have gone off the road twice in it. The first time driving icy road in January 2020 slid off road into a shallow ravine. A tow truck had to tow me out but I was able to drive it to work then to a repair shop to fix a couple minor things like replacing a windshield washer pump. Then, in May last year I was drinking water out of a water bottle and the water went down my windpipe instead of my esophagus causing me to uncontrollably gag causing me to swerve off the road into the very rough and bumpy shoulder. calling on my 51 yrs driving experience, I was able to keep it under control and back onto the road. I was able to drive it back to my house. In all these years have had to change the timing belt 4 times (recommended every 60,000 miles). the battery and alternator once. radiator 12 yrs ago. the AC is still working flawlessly!! I will keep it as long as I can. am 69 It has become a part of me now after all these years. It has saved me so much money over the years!

I am a third time Hyundai owner. I started in the 80's when they first came out and I have been buying them ever since. I have to admit that I noticed the difference between this car that I own and the other two that I owned. I presently have 2006 elantra, and am looking into purchasing a 2008. I love these cars. There reliability is superb and I encourage everyone that I know, family and friends to buy a Hyundai. They are great cars and they have come a mighty long way!

I tried out this vehicle on newly paved roads for the test drive. This in hindsight did not prepare me for later driving in other road conditions. The car was reasonably quiet on good pavement but if you go on older coarser pavement the road noise in the hatchback was bad.
Best car in price range, or even higher

Very happy with car, quality far above domestic cars,and beats many Japanese models costing thousands more which is a big surprise to me. The Koreans are offering a lot for the money.
Best First Car EVER!

So i was looking into getting a car, and came across the Elantras. These cares are THE best. I have been getting about 30mpg in town and 39 on the freeway. The manual is so nice and is very peppy. It is very fun to drive around town and mess around in. The response time is great! Also i keep getting comments from my friends saying that it is very comfortable and how they love the sound quality! The sound is amazing! I love how they actually come with 2 subs installed in the back. Also the tweeters and subs in the front. Well put together. This car is a solid car and a great one! I would reccomend this car to anyone! I have not had any problems and love this car to death. You should buy one.
Excellent Hatchback!
