2017 Hyundai Elantra

Great little car, the best gas mileage I've ever had. The car rides better than any small car I've had. It is well equipped and it handles well.

Best riding compact

I have owned toyota Corolla, Mazda, ford, and this is the smoothest riding car in the compact field. Very easy to drive, dash board area is easy to naviagate. Comfortable seats, roomy back seats for two. A good car for the $$$$

My 4th Hyundai

Went with the Limited because I thought it would be nice to have a built-in GPS. Bad mistake. Not accurate at all. Incorrect street names, Use is not intuitively obvious. Hard plastic trim makes car feel cheap. Aside from those 2 things, this is really a fantastic car and my next car will also be a Hyundai. Reliability based on previous cars as this one still has less than 1000 miles on the odometer.

My first Elantra was a 2010; this one is a 2017

I did not want to trade in my 2010 Elantra. But the 2017 model had more safety features and improved styling .

Great Car

Not the fastest car around but looks great and drives great. Has some real cool tail lights and lots of new features not present in the older Elantra.

First brand new car

Out of all the vehicles I test drove, the Elantra was always the vehicle I would go back to. The styling of it, both exterior and interior were very pleasing to me.

Comfort and Reliability

This is the third Hyundai I have owned and the Elantra continues its excellent performance in styling, comfort and reliability. You cant buy a car of this quality at a more reasonable price and warranty.

Beautiful and Reliable Car

This car is absolutely perfect for me. It is small but has room on the inside. It is equipped with blind spot sensors and back up camera which are very helpful. The car also has a sun roof and and three different driving settings- eco, regular and sport. I am very happy with this car.

Satisfied

The ride is not a super smooth ride; however, it meets our needs and ranks high in other areas. The price is good. It has plenty of leg room, even in the back seat. The gas millage is great! I love the SPORT mode, for getting on the interstate. And, I love the ECHO mode for saving gas when I am just cruising. It has wonderful selection of Apps (Bluetooth, Pandora access, GPS through your cell phone, etc.). The backup camera is a good feature as well. There is ample space in the trunk, and I love how easy it is to lay down the split backseats, for added trunk space. The added sun/moon roof is a great feature on mine! From bumper-to-bumper, this car is a great choice!
