It features a sleek, streamlined body with plenty of contemporary style elements and offers some bold, new paint colors. Regardless of which of its four trims you choose, you’ll find eye-catching touches both inside and out.
The latest iteration of the Elantra is marked by a variety of newly updated aspects, including a “shark-nose” front end, 2-piece grille, stainless steel brand emblem, new 15- to 18-inch wheel designs, thinner LED daytime running lights, and some brand-new bold paint colors, including:

Adding to the allure of the Hyundai Elantra is its tech-centric nature. A multitude of standard and available tech systems ensure you and your passengers will remain connected while out on the road. Even more importantly, everyone will be well protected.
Whether you’re commuting to work, running local errands, or heading out on vacation, having the right soundtrack can make the trip more enjoyable. Using standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, Bluetooth® with Voice Recognition, and its 8-inch touchscreen, you can access your preferred playlist or podcast. Dual USB ports in both the front and second rows come standard, so everyone on board can “plug in.”
Raising the ante in the tech department is a variety of available upgrades, including:
