Very Good Car for the money

First Hyundai I have ever owned. Excellent warranty on all of the car and powertrain. I currently have over 55K. Still intact with Leather Seats. Limited Series with Navigation with 2 updates and still kicking. The 1.8L engine is very sluggish and lacking power when start up and cold. The radio and sound to me is subpar since it was an upgrade in the Limited Series. I think the car looks like a little mouse purring over the road. The gas mileage is also disappointing and only about 32 MPG overall but have not any problems with the car. The interior looks a little less of quality than the honda i purchased later. Overall very please with the car in its third year of ownership and the only money spent on the car other than maintenance is a set of new tires at 35k I have tested driven a 2017 Elantra when they freshened it up and much improved and quieter and has good pick up and go compared to this car. Still a good buy and value.

Good value for the money

Meets all our needs great warranty, nice style, very good options, and very good gas mileage. the only negative with this car is the engine performance. I wish it was either the larger engine that come with the sport model or had a turbo.

Nicest car I've owned!

This car exceeds my needs! I wanted something good on gas, this car is great on gas. Also has a backup camera that I really didn't need but find very useful.

Awesome vehicle for the money

This car exceeded my expectations in every way. A lot of options for the price. Heated leather seats, back up camera Bluetooth all something you would expect from a very high end car.

Great all around car at a great price

We were looking for a high optioned budget car and this one fit the bill. The car is very fun to drive, could be a bit quicker as this is only around 170 hp while the car we had was closer to 250 hp. It gets pretty good gas mileage, it is the sport version so it is tuned for a little bit more fun rather than full on economy. The ride is pretty smooth, there is a bit of exterior noise that gets into the car when at speed. One of the features we like is that the stereo is very simple for a high optioned car. It had a good ol' knob for tuning and volume and is very easy to navigate. We didn't need GPS or anything so this fit the bill exactly. The car came with leather heated seats, bluetooth, AUX and USB radio connectivity as well as Smartkey remote entry and push button start. The one thing we wanted that did not come with this car was a remote start option. We will be putting an aftermarket remote start on it but it will be not a perfect set up as the push button start vehicles have some quirks to them (the car will turn off when you open the door and the OEM keyfob wont work until you get in the car again). We moved down from a mid-sized car (Pontiac G6) but the rear seat room is still very large. The one thing we really aren't to fond of is the styling. It feels like it can go out of style quickly. Overall though, a budget car that is a lot of fun, great options, runs very well and is still a big car for how small it is.

Great value for the money

Very happy with this sexy little vehicle. Only complaint is the gas mileage. Opted for the high end Elantra because of larger console screen and back camera capacity; takes care of the rear blind spots of the car.

Best Car For Me!

This car has everything I was looking for, not flashy but beautiful and comfortable. Features like EcoMode and the BackupCamera are really knew to me, but I?m enjoying the reliability they ensure me of with this car. I plan to have her for a long time!
