OMG, HYUNDAI 🥺
Within a month faced several issues. The most important ones are weird engine sound on start and continues till approx 45 minutes to 1 hour. Second one is transmission issue.

Don't drive in the rain!
The safety features on this car do not work. Lane assist veers car into oncoming traffic. Brake assist is triggered by rain and causes car to brake forcefully. Took back to dealership, was told these are common problems.

Love This Car
Looks great inside and out. The drive is smooth and quiet(16 inch wheels). Power is perfectly fine. Highway drive is excellent. Steering is light and perfect for my taste. Leather covered steering wheel feels high quality. Transmission fake shifts very well in normal mode. Love the proximity key fob. Plenty of room in back seat for large adults. No difference in drive when loaded up with adults and luggage. After 7 months of ownership, I have not had one manufacturer's defect or any issues. Gas mileage is excellent. On the negative side: Visibility out the back window shows mostly sky. The car is low. Base stereo sound quality is just adequate. Most plastics that your hands come in contact with are cheap feeling. Base seats are comfortable for about 40 minutes. Not being able to lift the wipers is annoying. There is a service position. Read the manual. Overall, a very good, enjoyable car to drive. Especially for the price.

Safe and dependable
I just started driving my Elantra and so far, it has been a great experience. I love the safety features such as the lane adjustment, helps keep the car in the lane which I found helpful during heavy rain or snow. It's very comfortable to drive, so far, a big fan of Elantra!
Look Elsewhere
If you have an iPhone, it will be compatible with your Elantra. But if you have a Google phone or an Android phone, well... you're pretty much screwed. My android is not even ten years old but, apparently, it's not compatible with my 2025 Elantra. I am unable to get or answer text messages or phone calls. When I start my car it connects and at least I can hear my music. But if I stop somewhere, like a gas station, and connect my phone again, the display says media not available. I contacted Hyundai about this and they said that they will not be doing an update to accommodate my phone and that I should get a new one. Well, what if I get a new phone and the problem persists? I'm out $800 or more dollars. Sorry, but thats not an option. I've had this car for less than a year and I regret it. As soon as I can, I'm dumping this P.O.S. and I'll get a Nissan or Honda. But I'm done with Hyundai. Both the car & my android are made in South Korea, but they're not compatible? But it's compatible with the phone that's made in China. I was told by Hyundai customer service that it's a software issue. So, fix the software! This way they won't lose customers like they've lost this one.
