Hyundai Elantra

"the acceleration is a bit slow and jerky"

"Very lazy acceleration, rear suspension makes the car dancing on uneven road - non secure driving (on dry road). Excessive engine and road noise."

"I think accelerating is challenging at times,especially is air conditioner is on. I also find steering stiff."

"Looses power/won't accelerate, currently in the Hyundai shop for 5 weeks with problem. Lemmon law fieled."

"Handles really well, especially cornering. We always drive in Eco mode so acceleration is adequate but not stellar."

"VERY POOR traction in snow. In fact it is the only car in 27 years that I can't get up my driveway when there is some snow on the driveway."

"All good, the best handling car I have ever owned, and the acceleration is more than adequate even in eco mode. Goes up steep hills with no effort."

"We find it very comfortable in town and surprisingly comfortable on the highway. I'm surprised; we intended it for city driving only. At highway speeds, it gets excellent gas mileage. And while most reviewers disliked the handling, but I find it very good; planted and controllable."

"hugs the road very well; handles turns very well. must be patient to get the vehicle up to desired speed."

"Brakes are somewhat loud at times when braking suddenly."

"Car hesitates on part-throttle acceleration from both standing start or rolling start. For a 2 litre engine, the apparent power is disappointingly sparse and this makes turning across traffic and merging problematic if not dangerous."

"I had an 06 Elantra which was a great car. It was eaiser on the road. The 14 is more like a race car. Road noise is a problem."

"It handles very well and has good acceleration."

"Handling is nice. Great gas mileage and a great car for someone in sales."

"Easy to park, turn, etc. Hugs the road and feels comfortable driving."

"Acceleration is bit lackluster for this size of vehicle. Handling and turning radius could be tighter."

"Very good handling and acceleration. Never feels out of control, better than average but not quite sporty acceleration. Corners well, steering is comfortable and reliable."

"Very snappy and quick handling and acceleration. It drives and performs very nicely for a 4-cylinder"

"173 hp says it all... not a turbo either. Goes well!"

"It does terrible in snow. Even put different tires on which helped but still not that great!"

"THE BRAKES DON'T LAST. OTHERWISE IT IS OK"

"It hugs the road well (taking corners on the freeway, etc.). Acceleration is good (being on a four cylinder), not exceptional."

"acceleration is a bit sluggish, handling is average."

"I am not feeling safe on uneven roads. Rear suspenssion makes strange movement. When I slow down automatic transmission does not change gear down, I have to switch to manual gears. Acceleration is so so."

"Car has good acceleration and handles very well and is good on turning/ curves"

"Acceleration is good, and handling is good most times. Occasionally when a bump or pothole is hit, it has a body roll."

"Nice looking compact from outside. Beautifil shape of lights. Horrible road noise, ugly and high engine noise. Harsh uncomfortable driving (feeling like on wooden tires). Very bad floating rear suspension. Very high fuel consumption. Week, lazy engine. Cheap plastics inside."

"acceleration can seem a bit sluggish"

"My Elantra GT accelerates quite well, very peppy and good enough for me, especially for the price, but also not quite to the level you would expect with a GT badge. No problems getting on the highway or going up hills, passing in traffic, etc. Handling is good, it steers and corners well, doesn't fight me and centers pretty well. I feel confident driving it, and it feels somewhat sporty even if it doesn't have a super-powerful engine. The "driving modes" don't really feel like they're doing much..."

"Road noise excessive and sight lines difficult."

"The outside noise heard with windows slightly open is loud and you're unable to hear the radio. Also noisy with all windows up and the ride is rough even on comfort mode."

"The car is VERY noisy on the highway... so much so that if you wanted to listen to music in a long trip it would probably give you a headache. Also, the car does not track well and needs very frequent directional correction. My Santa Fe will track withiut such constant attention every couple seconds."

"Outside this car is beautiful. All controls are intuitive and they look very nice. But; Seat are unconfortable, AC is so so, ugly noise of engine and harsh ride, cheap tires, lazy acceleration, cheap plasics inside, wrong angle between the windshield and the dashboard (air outlets are visible in the windshield all the day), rear suspension makes the car dancing on uneven road - not secure driving (dry road). The car key is like 30 years ago - two pieces, this is a shame. This is the cheapest an"

"Great seats and driving position but so noisy, especially at highway speeds."

"I love the leather seats - very comfortable to drive. I just wish it were a little quieter. Excellent in all other areas."

"A little noisy on the road"

"Very stylish not cheap interior"

"Seats are hard and rough on the road."

"Would have liked lumbar support. There are no air vents In the rear seats. This is a big fault that would probably make me not buty this again."

"The road noise is awful. Very very loud."

"No lumbar support like I had in my Hyundai Accent"

"The heated seats option is excellent. Ohio winters can be very cold and within a few minutes (2-3) a warm seat is very comforting. The ride/comforrt could be improved maybe with better shocks and/or suspension."

"Ride and ride"

"Fun car to drive and it is very comfortable. The road noise is not as pronounced which I like."

"Only complaint is the amount of outside noise in the car (mainly tire and wind noise)."

"Ease of entry and exit. I am 75 years old and starting arthritis in one hip. The steering column does not rise an adequate distance, making it inconvenient to slide in and out of the drivers seat. The passenger seat has no height adjustment and is mounted so low it feels like sitting in a hole."

"Not enough space for tall drivers (6 ft). Excessive engine noise and road noise. Harsh riding, poor suspension."

"THE ELECTRONICS IN THE SEAT, DRIVERS, HAVE BROKEN MORE THAN ONCE AND THE BACK STAYS ALL THE WAY DOWN. DANGEROUS. ANNOYING. EXPENSIVE!!!!!"

"Seats are very comfortable, especially heated seats during winter months. My only objection is the noise level--extreme outside noise."

"The front seat can be heated."

"The noise and ride are typical of a small car. There is road noise, and the only thing about the ride is sometimes it has a body roll when a pothole, bump or something else is hit."

"Thr seats are comfortable and the ride is good, but road noise is TERRIBLE. when under acceleration or at highway speeds, forget listening to the radio! If you try you will have to turn it to ear damaging levels to hear it over the road noise and engine. If on a longer trip doing that, you can expect to get a headache."

"They need to improve the noise level inside from the outside noise and maybe a little better shocks for a smoother ride"

"I was surprised that my Elantra GT was as good as it turned out to be. Ride is nice and confident, seats are comfortable, and I don't notice any exceptional noise. Considering the GT badge, I expected it to be stiffer and a more jarring ride, but was pleasantly surprised that it feels grippy and corners well but also absorbs a lot of bumps."

"got 13% off sticker"

"Great basic car to drive around town. Great gas milage."

"good value for the money with excellent gas milage"

"Very stylish. Good acceleration especially with the auto/manual shifting. Very good sound , nav and comfort"

"It sucks"

"I thinkI paid too much and did not drive a good bargain with the dealer."

"The dealer overcharged by about $2000l But the car handles well, accellerates well is comfortable,stylish, and dependable."

"Bought as a leftover for $15800,got the gt model, roomy( picked up 10 bags of mulch), satellite radio, heated seats and mirrors, sport suspension and steering, nice wheels handles great, plenty of power even in eco mode, mileage better than sticker shows, gets 30 mpg around town"

"We haven't had a single problem with this Elantra or any of the Hyundai's that we've owned. We have been driving them for the last 9 years and the gas mileage is great."

"Got it as a used Hertz rental for well below average Blue Book. Road noise could be better but I would never expect better in this price range. Fuel efficiency is amazing."

"The car price and the options available makes this car a good value for the money. Paying more would have been less value but better quality."

"Bigger inside than it looks. Leather seats are comfortable. It's not a powerful car but it gets up to freeway speeds fast enough."

"We got a very good price on this car, probably due to my husband's experience as a collections manager for a credit union."

"We now think that the smaller model would have suited us just as well and would have cost less. We were not happy with the way we were up sold. However, it is a good car."

"The car looks really nice and drives well. Best combination that we found for the price. Too bad they discontinued the coupe model!"

"We feel we received excellent value from our 2014 Elantra Sport Limited. It has great styling a 2.0 L 4 cylinder engine that gets decent gas mileage with leather heated seats, sun roof, alloy wheels, all for just at $20k with a 10 yr 100,000 mile warranty."

"Front bumper and front wheel and engines sheilds break way too easily...on parking barriers@"

"responsive.fun to drive"

"This car ( unlike most in the middle cost category ) did not have a backup camera which I would have liked."

"The rear camera ,heated seats and touch screen included as a inexpensive option."

"Great car for short distance trips. Work cottage shopping etc. For cross country holidays would use a larger hwy car. Genises etc"

"The car is reliable, have not have any issue with it. Worth the money."

"We feel like we received excellent value on our 2014 Hyundai Elantra Sport Limited. It has fantastic styling (IMO), fairly economical, and a 10 year 100,000 mile drive train warranty (5 yr 60,000 mile for the rest)."

"I only paid 17500 for the car and it is more than adequate for my needs"

"Amazing options for the price. Super dependable car!"

"very good value, have all the bells and whistles that toyota and honda has but costs a lot less"

"This car is reliable and drives well. It's not as comfotable as I'd like for long drives (3 or more hours), but it's fine for shorter trips. No system or other significant problems at all. Well worth the price we paid for it. We expect to have it for a long time."

"Hyundai delivers more bang for the buck than virtually any other auto manufacturer. On top of the comprehensive list of equipment, our Hyundais are brilliantly reliable and fun to drive."

"Loaded with extras that are not included with other car makers."

"Great gas consumption Easy to handle Comfortable"

"Hyundai's value proposition is unbeatable on today's market. For a net cost of about $24,000 we bought a car that is stylish, fun to drive, economical, reliable, and packed with the newest in automotive technology. A comparable car similarly equipped would have been around $5,000, or 20% more."

"got a good deal"

"very sleek"

"It was the reason we bought the car. My wife liked the style and look of the 2014 Elantra. Once we looked at the car at the dealership, she was also happy with the fit and finish of the interior."

"Its got excellent styling for a 4 door"

"I feel like I am driving an expensive sports car. It has plenty of power and looks so classy."

"Sleek and sporty look. We got a Limited model that includes hubcaps we haven't seen on other Elantras of similar years. The leather seats were worth the extra cost."

"sleek good looking with access to dashboard controls."

"Very stylish"

"Many young and old tell me how "cool" it looks"

"Received many compliments on its styling."

"Looks"
