Most Safe and Reliable Car I Own

This car is really good for all ages. The car is comfortable and reliable at the same time. I travel in this car all the time because the mpg is amazing. There's bluetooth, heated seats, and a usb port right for my phone. The car also drives smooth and even smoother when the eco mode is turned on, making changing lanes even easier.

Most reliable and FUN car I've owned.

Definitely a joy to own. This car hasn't broken down or had any issues since I've owned it giving me wonderful peace of mind. SO much fun to drive and really luxurious. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat!

Excellent Car in terms of comfort and Mileage

I own this vehicle and this car is excellent in terms of Mileage and comfort. On highways driving at a speed of 65 mph you will consistently get 40/41 MPG average. Air conditioner is excellent. I recommend this vehicle to someone who don't want to spent money on maintenance and mileage.

Very reliable & attractive for the price.

I love it. It is reliable, sporty looking, beautiful paint. Many accessories are included that buyers usually have to pay for. Excellent warranty. Excellent mpg. Good pep for a 4-cylinder.

best in price, and reliability. overall

Ive driven multiple of these cars and they are the best. They are always set at such a great price, and get great gas mileage. Its just as good as any "well known name" but at an even better price!!

My favorite car yet!

It was a fun little 2 door 6 speed manual. It was absolutely terrible in the snow, but i never put real snow tires on it. I averaged over 30mpg for the 3 years that i had it. Never had a mechanical issue. If it wasnt for me having my son and needing 4 doors and AWD i would have kept it and run it into the ground. I miss it quite a bit. Id definitely recommend for warmer climates.

2013 Hyundai Elantra Limited

This car meets all my needs and then some! I wanted a car with front wheel drive that was stylish and comfortable. The limited version has great leather seats, plus heated seats in the front and the back. I love the way it feels getting into the car and it drives well.

Most reliable and spacious care ever owned!

I am a Honda owner for over 20 years and this Hyundai won me over. Their engine/power-train warranty is the best on the market...and they stand behind it. When a persistent engine light failed to be addressed at 85K, the dealership tore down the engine, found the problem (defective valve) and rebuilt it at no cost to me! At 6'4", it is the most comfortable car. I can lay out and fully extend my legs which really helps over long distance drives. Fuel economy is excellent 35-38 on the road; 30-32 in the city. The high-end radio/speakers in the Limited model are clear, articulate with great balance. It needed a full-size spare which I provided. Recommend against the 'low profile' wheels since pot holes take their toll. Really took hard use with only regular maintenance needed (oil change/rotation of tires) every 5000 miles. Boy, do I recommend the Hyundai Elantra Limited!

Safe, reliable sedan

I drove this car for 3 years and never really had any problems with it. Granted, I couldn't drive it in the snow but it was perfect for city driving. It's sleek design makes it a little sexy from the outside too.
