2018 Hyundai Elantra Review

At Andy Mohr Hyundai, we’ve taken notice of quite a few Elantras out on the streets of Bloomington, Martinsville, and Ellettsville. With their high efficiency, comfort, and comprehensive safety, they make a great choice for local families and commuters alike.

The 2018 Hyundai Elantra offers all these qualities and then some. To learn more, just check out this review.

2018 Hyundai Elantra Quick Facts
Fuel Tank Capacity: 14 gal	MPG: Up to 32 city/ 40 highway
Dimensions: 180” L x 71” W x 57” H	Horsepower: 128 to 201 hp

2018 Hyundai Elantra Performance  

The 2018 Hyundai Elantra is by no means a large sedan. However, it does aim to pack something of a punch with its powertrain. With a 2.0L inline 4-cylinder engine under its hood, it can easily generate as much as 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque.

Of course, the true goal of the 2018 Elantra isn’t speed—it’s fuel economy. This small sedan comes with an available Active ECO System, which streamlines power flow throughout the engine to keep your car from eating up too much gas.

The Active ECO System goes hand in hand with the available 6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC®. With this feature, you won’t just have tremendously smooth gear shifts, you’ll also be able to maintain 38 MPG highway and 29 MPG city.1

 

2018 Hyundai Elantra Interior

As we said before, the 2018 Elantra interior is rather compact, but offers plenty of space for your passengers. In total, it comes with 95.8 cubic feet for passengers, as well as a 14.4 cubic foot trunk. However, drivers should have plenty of room to stretch out with 38.8 inches of headroom and 42.2 inches of legroom at their disposal.

Amenities such as remote keyless entry abound in the Elantra, making your driving experience even more convenient. Settle into your 6-way cloth driver’s seat and prepare for fun.

Bluetooth® is available with your automatic transmission, as well as steering-wheel-mounted audio controls. Connect your mobile devices to the 6-speaker audio system and feel free to crank the tunes.

 

Elantra Safety Ratings 

One aspect that remains consistent across the entire Hyundai brand is safety, and it’s something you should expect in full in the 2018 Elantra safety package.

In this car, protection starts with structure. The 2018 Elantra is made with some pretty rigid materials, all of which make up a reinforced unibody. To absorb and deflect collision forces, this body features both front and rear crumple zones and an energy-absorbing steering column.

An advanced airbag system with an Occupant Classification System is then added, as well. This system can sense who might be sitting in each seat to smartly deploy airbags accordingly.

Lastly, a few key technologies have been added to the Elantra to ensure excellent handling. Chiefly, Electronic Stability Control and the Traction Control System work together to keep your vehicle on course, even while driving those more hazardous roads.
