Solid and Ultra-Eco

Rented one on Kona during Thanksgiving. Roomy, predictable, solid, intuitive...and on an island with a 55mph max speed, averaged 50 mpg!

Owned three, this is the best one yet

From the 2013 to 2017 and now the 2019 this is the best one yet. The new style is terrific. The updated interior is above par when compared to the same model level on the Honda Civic that I test drove. I love the Smart drive mode. I drive a lot for work and when on local streets or getting onto the highway, when I accelerate the car really takes off. Gas mileage is very good which keeps my boss happy. The safety features, including the lane assist are very good, but at times annoying, so I do turn some features on and off (front camera lane assist beeps too often for me) depending on my driving needs. The only negative and for me it was not a game changer, I do miss the lid that was on the center tray where my USB phone cord is plugged in. It was nice to throw my house keys in there and hide my phone cable. I have since made my own. This is my third lease and am extremely happy with the 2019

I researched cars for 6 months and bought this one at a great deal. $500 over car dealer invoice. They showed me the invoice. I have had this car for 4 years and I love it. I put 4,500 miles on it since I bought it new. This car is very good. The best in its class. You get so much with this car for a cheap price. I baby my car and wax it every 6 months. I added LED headlights and it makes it look like a 2023 car. I make sure I park it in a garage every night to protect the paint. I love how quiet and smooth it rides. The engine is very smooth as well. I only use full synthetic oil which makes a huge difference. I also always use mid grade gasoline. I change my oil every year no matter what. The trunk is huge. My car still smells new even after 4 years. I’m glad I bought this car. I have no regrets at all. Hyundai really impresses me with their cars. The warranty is awesome. 10 year 100,000 miles. No one gives you that. Overall I highly recommend this car.

It's just ok

My beloved 2010 Elantra Blue was totaled at a red light by an uninsured motorist. It was a great car and I miss it. I was desperate for a quick replacement. Oct.2021 was a terrible market to buy. Prices were high and selection was poor. I bought a low miles Elantra SEL. The 2019 model is bigger and more complicated than my 2010. First problem was a Hyundai campaign to repair a problem with the halogen headlights. They told me it was recall. It was actually an internal service campaign. You have to take the front bumper off to access the headlights. They did not replace the headlights. The factory repair is to drill half inch hole in the assembly box and secure the internal high beam switch. They should have replaced the headlights and I regret letting them do invasive procedure. Sure hope I never have to replace a bulb. The design restricting access is just crazy. Owners no longer can change a bulb. There's also a front end noise on right turns. It may be hard to diagnose. Dealer is not eager to tackle it. They started by telling me what they would not do to find the problem. They are not interested in intermittent noises. Hyundai is just not the company that worked so hard to build the brand. I have second thoughts about the purchase.
