From The Experts

Things we like

First and foremost, each and every generation and version of the Hyundai Elantra has been impressive when it comes to outright looks and stance. The fluidic design language of the Hyundai Elantra has time and again proven its beauty, and this generation of the Elantra takes the game to a new level. The smooth curves all around the exterior profile of the Elantra give it a sporty stance like none other.

The Hyundai Elantra is available in two engine options, however, it is the more powerful 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, which gives it an oomph factor. The engine not only feels super smooth and refined but also is quite powerful on straight stretches.

Hyundai has always been the benchmark manufacturer when it comes to equipping its models with first in class comfort and convenience features. The Elantra too follows the footsteps of its siblings, as it offers some really feel good features like ventilated front seats, cruise control, sunroof and many more, which makes it a premium car by every bit.

Things we don't like

Midsize sedans are all about rear seat comfort and space. While there is no doubt on the feel which Hyundai Elantra gives to its front seat occupants, things are not as impressive at the rear. The sedan scores low on aspects like legroom which is a bit limited, while at the same time, thanks to the coupe-like sloping low roofline, the headroom too is at a premium.

The 2.0-litre petrol engine offers great levels of performance, but when it comes to fuel efficiency, the Elantra disappoints a bit. With a real-world fuel economy of 7-8kmpl, the Elantra is not that fuel economic to make it a practical daily ride.
