The new 2022 Hyundai Elantra: Speck and Features

Overview

The Hyundai Elantra for 2022 is eye-catching with its outstanding design, but it's also a very practical compact car. Its cabin has an equally amazing design, and quite a few luxurious features are available on the higher trims that help make it even more impressive.

The entry-level engine is a 147-hp four-cylinder that is mated to a CVT, but both a hybrid powertrain and a 201-hp turbocharged four are optional. The Elantra among compact cars , such as the Honda Civic, the Nissan Sentra, and the Toyota Corolla. It has value -oriented packaging makes it appealing choice .

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

The standard powertrain is a 147-hp four-cylinder engine with front-wheel drive and a CVT. The hybrid model uses a 1.6-liter four-cylinder paired with an electric motor, totaling 139 horsepower between the two. Gearchanges in the hybrid are handled by a sixspeed automatic instead of ____(what?)___

Neither of these options will provide jaw-dropping acceleration, but we noted during our test drive of a nonhybrid model that the ride quality was good and it had enough power for basic city and highway driving. The most exciting Elantra is the performance-oriented Elantra N, which we review separately. However, those who can't quite afford that car's price tag could consider the tamer N Line model instead

Its 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine is turbocharged and available with either a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual clutch automatic transmission. We were having a great time test driving it, especially enjoying the N Line's quicker acceleration and nimble handling without making the ride too harsh.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

According to the EPA, the most fuel-efficient Elantra will get up to 53 mpg in the city and 56 on the highway. Our own testing shows that this figure may be optimistic; on our standard 75-mph highway fuel economy route, the best results we saw were 48 mpg. But even a more conservative 38 mpg is nothing to scoff at. If you're interested in learning more about  the Elantra's fuel economy figures, visit the EPA's website.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

The interior of the Elantra catches up to its dramatic exterior- with a futuristic cabin. The dashboard and center console look like they were designed specifically for the driver's needs while the other side is much more simplistic. A single LED strip serves as decoration and practicality, following the line of air vents that go across the entire width of  the car. Even in spaces such as passenger volume and rear seat space, which can often be tight in sedan models - the Elantra still offers plenty room compared to similar Sentras or Volkswagens Jettas on · Market.. In our testing, we had no trouble fitting six carry-on suitcases into its trunk.
