What Owners are Saying About the 2026 Hyundai Elantra
"Simple car with great gas mileage"
"This model is simple with great gas mileage. Plenty of power for everyday travel. Seat design is comfortable. No major blind spots like so many of its competitors. Interior integrity holds up; however the vents for ac/ heater are at awkward positioning, making it hard for people in the back to feel the heat or cold . Also with the interior design of the car, there’s no real great place to position a cell phone for hands off accessibility. ( vents and dash -bad for holders) It’s low profile front in is high enough to clear for most parking pylons, and curbs which is a plus - unlike some of the competitors ex: Ford fusion . Handles well on turns and suspension is average. Includes lane correction and modern screen for BT . Only issue so far is that my back up camera has stopped working which may be a simple fix. Not really sure why the car tells me to take a break after only driving 6-7 miles on my way to work with a coffee mug pic on the dash but Overall 👍"
"Review"
"Had the car for 6 months, put about 20,000 miles on it. Great gas mileage, I've been looking into the transmission problems with this car. My car currently is a bit unresponsive when accelerating, I'll have the pedal down for about 2 seconds and then it finally fires up to accelerate, it isn't like that the whole time but often enough to definitely notice, had another weird issue where the car came to a complete stop while reversing down a hill with my foot entirely off the brake but that only happened once but it was very odd, of course I bring it up and unless I can prove it, nothing can be done at the dealership. Also front passenger window sometimes becomes unresponsive, you can hear the window motor trying to work but nothing and then the next day it works fine, windows will be clean and free of gunk and still have this issue. All in all good car but I am concerned about the longevity of it."
"YES"
"GOOD PRICE GREAT FUEL VALUE FILL UP ONCE A MONTH 0 ISSUES JUST LACKS IN POWER BUT IS AN EFFICIENT MACHINE"
