Nice Car

Great car for price. Enjoying it. I would recommended buying 2017 or 2018 as the style has not changed. Good luck in making your decision. I test drove other cars and did not feel as comfortable in them as I did with the Elantra

Elantra Sport - Great Performance!

The 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport is a great blend of fuel economy and performance. I recently purchased the Elantra Sport with a 6 speed manual transmission. With its 1.6L turbocharged engine, this car has plenty of speed when needed. Likewise, given its sport-tuned suspension and independent rear suspension, it handles especially well in corners. All this performance aside, I have been averaging about 27mpg fuel economy. Anyone that is looking for a fun car to drive without breaking the bank should consider the Elantra Sport!

Great Car

This car definitely meets my needs if being good on gas with an average of 34 MPG. It has a very sleek look and drives smoothly. While it may look compact from the outside, it is rather spacious on the inside. Definitely a great purchase!

Best Possible First Impressions

I've only had the car for a few days; however, based on the Elantra's performance on local roads and highways to date, I'm looking forward to years of pleasurable and safe driving. Where first impressions matter, this one would be hard to beat.

Awesome Car

I Love my Elantra SE! I'm wishing that I had gotten one years ago! The gas mileage is so fantastic!, and I love driving it! There was just one thing missing on it that I wish it had, and that it the back up (rear) camera! Other than that it's a magnificent car!

Excellent purchase

I wanted a smaller car and purchased the Elantra because it had most of the features I wanted. It has three driving modes: regular, eco, and sport (more zip). It has a back up camera and side cameras to make sure I don?t move into a car in the next lane. This one did not have Bluelink or DVD player, but I can hook up my phone and even use Google Maps for navigation. For the price, all these bells and whistles are great.

Love the improvements they have made since 2016

This is my 4th Elantra and 1st Tucson. Hyundai makes a great car. They keep improving by getting opinions from those who drive them.
