Key strengths: Simple, clean, and attractive exterior, coupled with nicely appointed interior features.
Areas for improvement: Nothing - so far
The interior is comfortable, featuring plenty of headroom. The dash is easy to use (good sized controls/clearly marked), and very attractive, especially at night with the blue lighting, which has a nice cooling effect on the eyes. XM radio is included, and the factory stereo is performs well, even for the discerning ear. There is a CD player with an MPEG slot. There is also a jack for an Ipod. The impressive thing about the interior is the storage for cups, sunglasses (above the rear view mirror, very cool), and other items that now can be easily stored.
The ride is solid and smooth. Even between 70-80 MPH, the Elantra is quiet and tight, while the engine, in my opinion, runs pretty well when acceleration is needed. Though the Elantra is not a sports car or a performance vehicle that is designed to give the driver kicks, it proves to be a pleasant ride. This car is enjoyable to drive, as it handles decent, and is nimble and quick. The 16-inch wheels contribute to a better than expected driving experience, and the gas mileage is solid (34 highway, 25 city).
The trunk is deep and spacious (I have the cargo net as well). There are buttons under the back interior lip of the trunk to enable the split back seats (60/40). This vehicle is well designed, and obviously a great value. My Elantra has cruise control as well. In fact, it is nicely equipped overall.
There are trim moldings on the doors and wheel wells, which adds a nice finishing touch to this car. Therefore, I recommend it to those who are looking for great value, good gas mileage, and a surprising level of comfort and refinement. The running costs for Hyundai Elantra Automatic are normal
