2023 Hyundai Elantra Review

When you want to have some fun on your commute, the Hyundai Elantra is designed to provide an exciting ride with its standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine. This powertrain delivers up to 147 horsepower, 132 lb-ft of torque, and an EPA-estimated 33 city/42 highway MPG.¹

You’ll also be treated to standard Front Wheel Drive, a Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission, and Idle Stop & Go. With these three features working together, you’ll be able to avoid frequent fill-ups and get up to speed seamlessly.

Commuting means spending a lot of time on busy roads, and the 2023 Hyundai Elantra is here to make your life much easier thanks to its many safety features. This vehicle is designed with a multitude of systems that look out for you to help avoid collisions.

With the Elantra, the following systems come standard:

• Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection: This system can apply emergency braking whenever it detects a vehicle or pedestrian in your path.
• Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist: If there's a car in your blind spot, this system will alert you. That way, you can wait for them to pass before changing lanes.
• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist: Back out of parking spots with confidence, knowing this system will alert you to any oncoming cars and apply the brakes, if needed.
• Driver Attention Warning: By monitoring your driving patterns, this system can detect and alert you any time it senses you've become drowsy or distracted.
• Lane Keeping Assist: If your vehicle begins to drift, this system can provide steering assistance to keep you within the lines of your lane.

Additionally, you can get even more assistance while driving. Available Junction-Turning Detection can help you avoid potential collisions when turning at a busy intersection. You’ll also enjoy the cruising confidence of available Highway Drive Assist. It maintains a safe following distance and keeps you safely centered in your lane on the highway.

You’ll spend quite a lot of time inside the Hyundai Elantra. To ensure you’re able to stay comfortable, this vehicle features a roomy cabin. Thanks to a passenger volume of 99.4 cubic feet, everyone on board will have plenty of space. They can also move around easily with these cabin dimensions:

• Headroom (front/rear): 40.6 inches/37.3 inches
• Legroom (front/rear): 42.3 inches/38 inches
• Shoulder Room (front/rear): 56.5 inches/55.6 inches
• Hip Room (front/rear): 53.4 inches/50.5 inches

With wiggle room like that, stepping on toes or bumping elbows is out of the equation for good.
