2020 Hyundai Elantra GT
UPDATE #4: Now at approximately 34K miles, I am still happy with my car. I’m achieving 28 MPG with a mix of highway and city driving. There have been no mechanical issues to speak of since my last update. I cannot stress enough my displeasure why this model was discontinued. If I could buy a newer version of this exact model, I would. I prefer hatchbacks. CUV’s and SUV’s are fine for … those who want them. But I’m of a minority of those who prefer cars that are maneuverable, compact yet spacious and reliable. This Hyundai has been that car.
UPDATE #3: I’ve got to give it to Hyundai. This car has been a solid choice w since I bought it in November of 2020. No mechanical or electrical issues as of yet. My fuel economy is OK. it’s been driven more since my last update so I have been able to test its capabilities.
For me, the ability to have enough room to move across town with the space of an SUV has been great. I live near the mountains now and the power of the engine is more than enough. I did replace the rims and tires with an aftermarket set-up: it’s only improved the handling.
Anyone who feels Hyundais are junk needs to get behind the wheel and drive one. The cars made today are vastly superior to what Hyundai has produced in the past.
UPDATE #2: It’s been a little over a year since my purchase. Overall it’s still a great car, but I have a small concern.
With about 14K on the odometer, I am noticing little creaks and rattles when I drive with the infotainment off. Nothing major, just something to keep in mind. Also, the windshield has been replaced twice in six months due to rocks when I traveled. I’m not sure of the glass is not very thick or the rocks which shattered the windshield were big enough to do this damage but both times I was going around 65 mph and was in Arizona when the incidents occurred.
Other than that, I’m pleased with the car. It’s a shame they don’t make this model anymore in a hatchback.
UPDATE: After nearly eight months of ownership, I’m still pleased. It has enough get up and go. Fuel economy is ok, especially if I drive it gingerly.
But this car asks to be pushed. When I step on it, it seems to come alive. The handling is its best trait.
The interior suits me fine. Comfortable for trips and in stop and go traffic. The sound system is the only weak spot inside. It’s not what I consider premium, even with the Technology package.
No issues with its reliability. Aside from oil changes, nothing to report.
Still love it.
Original post: It is NOT a VW GTI. It’s not Honda Civic SI. It is a Hyundai Elantra GT N-Line. Meaning, this vehicle can do most of the performance at a lower price point. If you want more, go get it.
To me, this car suits my needs. It’s fast enough, handles great, has a really good interior space and packaging and doesn’t scream immaturity like some of the other choices out there. Some people, like myself, don’t want to flaunt our cars like kids.
I wanted a car that does what it’s supposed to do and do it well. I wanted it at a price point where we can actually afford to keep it; something other than a CUV or SUV. It should be reliable and comfortable.
This is a fun car. Perfect? No. But I do enjoy knowing there aren’t hundreds of these cars lurking the streets, roads and boulevards, such as Honda Civic SI’s, VW GTI’s. It’s different. I liked and bought this car because it’s a bit old school, with modern technology and safety.
I suggest you drive it and form your own opinions. You may actually like it..if you can find one. There aren’t many left. They (Hyundai) decided to discontinue this current design for 2020.
