2024 Hyundai Elantra Quick Guide | Latest Features, Trims, Colors

Elantra Review The Hyundai Elantra was already a standout in the compact sedan segment for its features and value. And this year, the 2024 Elantra gets enhancements in infotainment, safety, and style that make it even more appealing. Hyundai discontinued its small Accent in 2022, leaving the Elantra as the entry-level gas-powered sedan in the Hyundai lineup, below the larger Sonata sedan. The Elantra has a surprisingly roomy interior for a compact sedan, with a wide range of trims that include everything from hybrids to the high-performance N for those who crave a more spirited driving experience. A starting price of $22,500 makes it appealing to drivers with modest budgets, and yet this year's interior enhancements, including soft-touch front door panels, make it look and feel like a more expensive car. Factor in Rick Case Hyundai's exclusive 20-year/200,000-mile warranty, and the Elantra is a strong entry in a competitive segment.

The 2024 Hyundai Elantra provides more passenger and cargo space than most of its rivals. It is more than an inch longer and an inch wider than the Toyota Corolla and a full 12 inches longer than the Corolla Hatchback. The larger size affords slightly more front legroom and significantly more rear hip- and legroom than most compact sedans.

The Elantra is a tad longer and wider than the Nissan Sentra or Corolla. However, among compact cars, the Elantra provides an abundance of rear head- and legroom, and its ability to transport a family of four is unrivaled. There are 14.2 cubic feet of cargo capacity in the trunk, beating the Corolla sedan by more than a cubic foot.

The 2024 Elantra also has a tidy cluster of easy-to-use controls in the middle of the dashboard and standard auxiliary control buttons on the steering wheel. The dash is tilted toward the driver for easier visibility, and a tall center console further emphasizes the cabin's cockpit feel. Lower trim levels get cloth seats, while the Limited models feature leather upholstery and metallic accents. New soft-touch door panels upgrade the experience for the driver and front passenger. 

The standard engine in the 2024 Hyundai Elantra is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder that produces 147 horsepower. It sends the power to the front wheels through a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). The performance-tuned N-Line features a 201-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder paired with a seven-speed automatic. The hybrid trims combine a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor for a total output of 139 hp. It uses a six-speed automatic transmission. The range-topping N gets a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that produces 276 hp and can be had with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The 2024 Hyundai Elantra has not yet been rated but should have ratings similar to the 2023 model year's. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awarded the 2023 Elantra a five-star overall safety rating, while the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gave it a top rating of Good in all crash tests.

A range of deep, rich, premium paint colors including Abyss Black, Amazon Gray, Fluid Metal, Ecotronic Gray, Ultimate Red, Serenity White, Intense Blue, and Exotic Green (N-Line exclusive) are available for drivers who demand a rich finish.
