Hyundai Elantra follows in Sonata's big, bold footsteps
Packing crazy-bold style, the Elantra is ready to fight compact sedan rivals like the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla and Mazda3.
The 2021 Hyundai Elantra is here, and it's wild.
The Elantra obviously takes a lot of inspiration from another hyperstylized new Hyundai, the Sonata.
Yet, the Elantra looks even more aggressive than its bigger brother thanks to one seriously swoopy rear end.
The 2021 Elantra features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, both unheard of for this class.
It also offers a fully digital gauge cluster, phone-as-key feature and more screen real estate than anything in the compact sedan class.
Nearly all Elantra trims rock a 2.0-liter gas engine making 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque, which is average for the segment.
The only exception is the Elantra Hybrid, which uses a 1.6-liter turbocharged I4 and an electric motor.
The Elantra Hybrid promises an impressive 50-plus mpg on the highway.
The 2021 Hyundai Elantra goes on sale later this year.
It should be priced pretty competitively, despite its impressive amount of standard tech and safety systems.
