Fun Elantra Sport Turbo

2017 Hyundai Elantra Sport 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

This car is awesome. It looks beautiful, runs great and handles really well. With the high strength steel and added glue along with the Turbo and rear wheel independent suspension with much better dampening I think it is the best car Hyundai currently makes. I'm getting about 30 mpg on three tanks of regular. It's pretty quick but not as fast as the 2014 Sonata Turbo I returned on lease. But its body structure is a lot quieter and stiffer than the Sonata. It handles well in the corners and felt really composed during a heavy rain storm. The Tech package is worth the money and I am enjoying the Sunroof and nice sounding stereo, though I do turn it off every once in awhile because the car sounds so good.

I have been driving my Elantra Limited since July 2017 and I am very impressed. This car has the ultimate package with auto stop, lane sensor warnings, 17 inch tires, interactive cruse control and blind spot radar. The gas mileage is fantastic! I get between 33.5 mpg and 44.1 mpg. I once drove 50 miles at 65 MPH (cruse control) and got 47.1 mpg! This car has only been to the dealer once for a recall!! The quality thus far perfect! 78,957 miles and runs great!

Great so far-SE Value Edition 2017

2017 Hyundai Elantra Value Edition 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 6A)

Ultimate test: Round trip from Tulsa to Las Vegas.. Dove it a total of 2500 miles, flawless, no issues. Comfortable, and did close to 45 MPG average. Drove though a winter storm in the mountains of New Mexico and although it was scary as hell at night, the little beast performed very well. I love all the features included in the Value edition and the MPG. Very easy to drive in town through stop and go traffic, especially through the Tulsa streets which are full of potholes. The looks are growing on me, in the beginning I thought it was kind of bland, but it really is a nice looking car, it is classy looking and doesn't look (to me) like an economy car, but more like an upscale-sporty sedan. The design is similar to the Sonata's and it has reminiscence to Audi's due to both sharing the same designer. Overall this car is a great value, it's safe, reliable, well built and economical.

2017 Elantra SE Man

The value on this vehicle is amazing, very easy to drive and comfortable. I work For Hyundai and to be honest i never even considered owning one until I took a customer on a test drive in the 6 speed manual. I was hooked. The ease of shifting and how simple the SE is. I was looking to get into an SUV or something a little bit Larger but I ended up loving the Elantra. the 10 Year 100k Mile Power-train warranty keeps maintenance simple and the 5 year 60K bumper to bumper makes it even better.

Spunky Little Thing

2017 Hyundai Elantra SE 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl 6A)

Leased this car 7 months ago and I absolutely love it! Great value for a great price. I have the SE, so it doesn't come with all of the bells and whistles (i.e. bluetooth, back up camera, etc.), but that doesn't matter at all. Both the front and back are extremely spacious, and I can tell you that both the front and back seats are incredibly comfortable. All of the controls and devices are within reach, and the lighting (both naturally and artificially) in the car is sufficient. The stereo system is crisp, clear, and easy to navigate. As far as performance goes, this car does surprisingly well. The engine is powerful yet soft--it isn't noisy from the outside nor the inside, which helps with hearing the radio, fellow passengers, and emergency vehicles. Steering is sharp and takes little effort, and the turning radius is above average. The car handles bumps very well, and the braking system is superb. As far as acceleration, the '17 Elantra SE starts out normally but quickly picks up speed as you move into second gear in regular mode (my SE is an automatic). In addition to regular, the SE also has an eco mode (for saving gas) and a sport mode (especially useful for 0-60 highway merges), which, again, plays into the great value-great price mantra. The outside lighting is perfect--the headlights provide great visibility and the taillights are both easy to see and are really sporty looking (look up some pictures). I recently drove my Elantra SE in the snow, and I must say that this may have been the thing that impressed me the most. The car cuts through the snow like a knife; the tire grip is better than some snow-ready SUV's I've driven. Obviously, it's not going to cut through 6+ inches of snow, but for accumulations less than this, blow-over snow, ice patches, and small snow/ice piles, the Elantra SE passes with flying colors in my book. There are only two "cons" that I might see with the car: 1. it sits pretty low to the ground, so it's sometimes a little hard to get into if you're a tall person and 2. it tends to get blown around more than the average car during a windy day on the road--but you can control the car just fine. Seriously though, if you're looking for a compact car with great value, comfort, and safety, you'd be unwise not to consider the '17 Elantra.
