The Hyundai ELANTRA is a compact sedan that offers excellent fuel economy, making it a popular choice if you're eco-conscious and looking for a daily driver. Its striking looks, spacious interior, and affordability set it apart from the competition.
The 2024 model builds on the success of the current model with several cosmetic, performance, and safety improvements. Let's take a closer look at what the upcoming Hyundai ELANTRA has to offer.
Trim Options
The 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA offers several trim levels. Three trims are available for the gas-powered model, while there are two options for the hybrid variant. Here's a quick look at these trims and their key features:
- SE: This is the base trim with a combined combined fuel economy rating of 36 mpg. It includes an infotainment system with an 8-inch touch screen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, as well as safety features such as forward and blind-spot collision-avoidance assist.
- SEL: This is a balanced model with a combined 34 mpg fuel economy rating. It's equipped with 16-inch wheels, a hands-free smart trunk release, and a 10.25-inch infotainment touch screen and digital cluster.
- Limited: This offers a more upscale experience with a leather interior, wireless charger, and Hyundai Digital Key. It also has a combined fuel economy rating of 34 mpg.
- N-Line: This comes with a turbocharged engine and features a sporty interior and exterior design. It has a combined fuel economy rating of 31 mpg combined.
- Hybrid Blue: This trim is equipped with advanced technology, 54 mpg combined fuel efficiency, and a driving range of 594 miles. The hybrid engine doesn't require plug-in charging and utilizes regenerative braking.
- Hybrid Limited: This trim is similar to the Hybrid Blue but comes with additional premium features, including a two-screen cockpit with a large TFT-LCD cluster and a larger touch screen. The combined fuel economy rating is 50 mpg.
Drive modes are available to optimize fuel economy, and some models come with features such as Idle Stop and Go for further fuel savings. The ELANTRA lineup includes traditional gasoline and hybrid options to cater to various preferences and needs.
Safety
Like many of the new Hyundai vehicles we have for sale, the latest ELANTRA is equipped with Hyundai SmartSense — a network of features designed to improve your driving experience. Standard on the base ELANTRA trim are the following safety features:
- Blind-spot collision warning.
- Driver attention warning.
- Forward collision-avoidance assist with pedestrian detection.
- High beam assist.
- Intelligent speed limit assist.
- Lane-keeping and lane-following assist.
- Rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist.
- Safe exit warning.
Aside from these, there are other safety features available across all trim levels. These include brake assist, an anti-lock braking system, an anti-theft system, and electronic stability control.
Performance
The 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA has various powertrain options to cater to different preferences. The standard SEL and SE models have a nonhybrid 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine producing 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. These models are also equipped with a continuously variable transmission.
If you're seeking a sportier experience, the N Line model offers a more spirited performance. It features a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with a turbocharger, delivering 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. This is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) that provides a sportier driving experience.
Hybrid enthusiasts can opt for one of the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA hybrid models, which also use a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. In this case, it's paired with an electric motor. The engine for the hybrid models delivers 139 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque, matching that of the N Line. The 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA hybrid model features a six-speed DCT, making its Blue Hybrid and Limited Hybrid trims a slightly more efficient alternative to the N Line.
The key features of the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA include a range of powertrains to suit various needs, from efficient hybrids to sportier turbocharged options. The N Line model, in particular, impresses with its livelier acceleration and adept handling, delivering a balanced blend of athleticism and ride comfort. If you're seeking an even higher performance level, the dedicated N model is also available.
Passenger Volume and Cargo Space
The 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA offers a spacious interior with a passenger volume of 99.4 cu ft. The generous 38 inches of legroom in the second row makes it feel more like a midsize sedan, which is great news if you're a parent, as it provides ample room for child seats and baby carriers. The trunk offers 14.2 cu ft of cargo space, and on the Limited trims, you can fold down the rear seats with an easy-release button, allowing for versatile seating and cargo options with a 60-40 split seatback.
Exterior and Interior Styling
The 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA standard model and hybrid versions showcase a captivating exterior design that deviates from the angular styling of the outgoing model. Some of the most noticeable changes include a narrower grille, slimmer headlights, a more aggressive rear bumper, and redesigned front fenders. There are also various alloy wheel designs and new exterior paint options that enable you to personalize your ELANTRA.
The new ELANTRA's cabin has a futuristic appearance, but it doesn't feature major upgrades or changes from the 2023 model. The dashboard and center console wrap around the driver, with a stylish LED strip along the air vent. Passenger space is generous, especially in the rear. However, the interior features a notable amount of hard plastic.
Technology
The 2024 ELANTRA is equipped with Hyundai's latest user-friendly infotainment system with an 8- or 10.25-inch touch-screen display, voice recognition, Bluetooth, and smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. An eight-speaker Bose premium sound system is standard on the top trims and available in select models. There's also a 4.2- or 10.25-gauge cluster depending on the trim you choose.
