What the Elantra is really Like (very good overall)

Overall, this is a very good car. Your view of this car will vary depending on what type of vehicle you are coming out of. You need to take a good test drive of the Elantra before making a final decision. The materials in the car are on level with an economy car but the styling overshadows some of the hard plastics. The fit and finish are on par with cars at least a class up. There is no other car that packs the value of the Elantra. As a package daily driver, you cannot go wrong with the Elantra GLS w/preferred pkg.
Just an amazing car

I traded in my 2007 Civic. The Elantra so much more car for the money as I test drove a new Civic as well.

I have 2,780 miles on the car I boght in Oct./12. My mpg was between 24 and 32 since I bought the car until today when I got 38.1 mpg. I'm noticing that as the car breaks in, the mpg is getting higher and the performance is getting better. It's a little bumpy on uneven streets or highway, but I can overlook that aspect of the car because of the great price and features this car has. I took 3 weeks researching and nothing came close to the Elantra GLS in price and features. Great car! I'll keep updating my reviews as time goes on.

I have my Elantra since 2013. So far I only got 16500 miles on it, and it has been running fine. MPG's on the highway is great, I see upper 30's and a few times over 40. It is not a race car, the 1.8 does not have a lot of torque. I never use the ECO mode since it makes the car feel slower, and forces up shifts. I am sure some people will like it, but it makes the car even more dull to me. Half a year ago a lady nicely decided to crash test it by hitting me with her Isuzu Trooper. The poor Elantra crumpled as intended and i got out without a scratch, though in need of a new front end. The stock tires are terrible, I can't wait to wear them down a little more and buy some proper ones. The car is roomy, easily sits four people. I am 6 foot 4 and have no issues being comfortable in the front. Very good trunk space too. Buy a spare tire if you want the safety, it is not included.

My Favorite Car I Ever Owned

First time I saw the redesigned Elantra, I knew I wanted one. I'd had two older Elantra previously and they were good cars. I bought a 2013 used with 26K miles. It was going to be my car for the next 10 or more years. As long as possible. But, sadly it was rear ended and declared a total loss at 85k miles. Anyway, it was a wonderful car. It had amazing mpg's. I could get up to 44 mpg but averaged about 38 as I did a fair amount of mixed city/highway driving. It was stylish, reliable, and super cheap to maintain. It had everything. I kept up with regular maintenance, like oil changes, etc. Only had brakes done once, and bought one set of tires to replace the factory tires it had when I bought it. Only problem it ever had was an airbag light came on, but that was covered by the 100k mile warranty! Car was great to drive, enough power for the highway and good grip on the road. Interior was very roomy and comfortable. Trunk was huge! If you are looking for a great value and a car you can enjoy looking at, I recommend the Elantra. I'll be getting another one!
