2018 Hyundai Elantra GT sport

This is a good daily drivers, the infotainment is very easy to get and even if I didn’t get the premium sound the sound quality is quite decent. Red accents are a nice detail, and steering wheel buttons come in handy when driving.

Great

Great vehicle, being able to connect to carplay or android auto is amazing. Exterior styling is great, except for the rear bumper, is too soft looking. Headunit sound is a little weak, some road noise.

Hyundai's New Hatch; European Style with Practical Value.

I've owned my 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT for about a year as of this review posted. Overall, I am pleased with this vehicle and what it has to offer; I love the European design of this car, very sleek and stylish that you don't find in most compact ecomony cars. The powertrain under my car is the 2.0L engine putting out 161hp, 150lb-ft torque paired with the six-speed automatic. Although the acceleration is more than adequate to merge out into highway traffic, I find the braking performance of this vehicle to be on the softer side. Hopefully this feeble braking concern is on my vehicle only, but I have addressed the concern to my local dealer. There is plenty cargo storage for family functions and other loading opportunity. Both the driver and front passenger will have ample legroom but rear passengers unfortunately suffer legroom space unless there is a compromise of moving the front seats forward to meet rear passenger's legroom demand. I have the fully-loaded base model GT that comes with the 8" touchscreeen w/ Blue LInk communications including Navigation but all models come with Android Auto/Apple Carplay. I also have the Qi-Wireless charger, seven speaker Infinity audio system with Subwoofer, dual-zone climate, heated/ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof, and auto-dimming rear visor. Safe to say, I would highly recommend you get the Tech package with your base model. You'll thank yourself for that investment. There are a few minor gripes I must address about the GT. Besides from the few items I've mentioned earlier, this car sits on a low stance so getting in and out of the vehicle requires some careful movement. I'm about 6' tall and I have to carefully adjust my body in and out the car or I'll hit my head. Another minor gripe is the interior's hard plastic. It's virtually everywhere and coming from an luxury brand to this car I will have to adjust. To be fair, I understand that brings down the cost of this vehicle and plastic is very easy to clean and cheap to replace so again, a minor gripe. Lastly and for some weird reason, you cannot fully raise the windshield wiper arms. I spoke with a Hyundai service tech and he informed me that was a recent design language Hyundai did for the 2016 and above models. I find that to be quite annoying because where I live it does sleet and snow during the winter months so you can see where I'm going with this. Otherwise, to conclude It's a solid car and I'm happy to use it as my daily driver. It's practical, fun, inexpensive, and reliable. I would highly recommend that you go to your local Hyundai dealer and give this a test drive. If you love it like I do, get the keys and own it today!

na

wanted something different then a 4 dr sedan style. like hatchback and ability to easily carry larger items. the front grill is only down spot. way too many "nooks" makes cleaning cumbersome. in the summer, bugs hit and stick like glue. a pain to clean. also wish it got 30 mpg. my average is 28. not much different, but feel 30 is better for fuel economy.

2018 Elantra GT

The Elantra GT is the entry-level 5-door hatchback. The interior is spacious, holding a full-size adult bicycle with the rear seat "down", without removing a wheel. Overall quality of the interior is good, with a look that's pleasing and comfortable. Performance of the 2-liter 4-cylinder engine is athletic and quick. I appreciate that the engine is not turbo-charged or supercharged. The 6-speed automatic transmission is responsive with quick up- or downshifts through the operating range. Blip the throttle under load, and the exhaust "barks" bringing on a smile. In-town driving is normally 28-to-30 mpg. Trip mpg's are 35 or higher. The car has standard 17-inch radials, which result in a comfortable combination of road feel and responsiveness. Fit and finish both inside and out are spot on. Driver controls remind me of the no-nonsense, highly legible ones normally found in BMW's and the like. The Hyundai's control binnacle is coordinated and understandable, with easy to use coupling with my Apple phone through Apple Car Play. And what other brands, at any cost, come with a 100,000 mile or 10-year warranty? Probably none. In my opinion, this "entry level" hatchback is a classic in its simplicity and design. I look forward to driving it every time out.

I love this car! I look forward to getting in and driving it! It also looks sharp parked outside my home. It handles well and drives smoothly and comfortably. All of my friends have looked it up after driving in it! Super nice car for a great price!

2018 elantra gt sport

Turns out, this car has a whole lot going for it. The safety features are superb, and I'm here to tell you they WORK in real life situations! The car looks small, but drop the back seats down, and it holds more stuff than my Escape SUV. The turbo motor has more than enough power and merges great on the highway. I haven't reset the one trip odometer since buying this car 18 months ago, and the gas mileage average for 24k miles is 28.7

Good car.

Very comfortable and fun to drive, everything is at your finger tips, and controls on the instrument panel are easy to use. For a small car it's roomy. The Elantra GT is also very easy to get in and out of and I have a bad back and other physical problems.

2019 Tucson Sport

The car has a disappointing fuel economy for both city and highway driving. I am very disappointed that there is no leather wrapped steering wheel on the sport trim level. The cargo area could be a little larger.

Runs smooth

Well not much on writing. Love the car, runs well and is great on milage. Have to watch you dont speed because you feel like you are going slow at 55. Cruise control helps there. Love the color and rear camera. Just watch your head getting iñ if you are tall. Recommend it.

Elantra GT

I really wanted to get a manual and a sportier car, but I was somewhat limited in what I could get based on what was on the lot at the time, and after extensive contemplation landed on the Elantra GT. This car has grown on me a lot since, and I have taken a serious liking to it. It wouldn't have been my first choice, but having it now, I can't see it any other way. It's perfect. Now if only it came in manual...

So cute and fun!

The day I purchase my vehicle I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted. I knew I didn't want a 4-door sedan, so the moment I laid eyes on this cute little hatchback I fell in love. She is a joy to drive in the city and the sport mode is an extra bonus for when I need a little bit more get up and go. I have recommended this vehicle to so many people since my purchase date 3 weeks ago. In the future if I go to update to a newer model it will definitely be another Elantra GT!

Great Style, Great Ride

Purchased this vehicle for many reasons, most important was style, ride, comfort, safety features, mileage, interior noise, hatchback model, sport model features. I would like to see an easier use of the navigation system.

Elantra gt sport

I am very impressed with the style and sportiness of the new vehicle. I am very disappointed that this very torquey vehicle doesn't come with a LSD. I thought all sport cars especially the veloster it shares a platform with. I had a conversation with the assistant manager of Antwerpen Hyundai about the availability of a limited slip differential through Hyundai for my Elantra. He never got back to me. I bought my vehicle from Len Stoler Hyundai but i haven't been back to them since I had a defective tire replaced. I had spoken with the service manager about the contract i purchased for coverage extending past the manufacturer intervals. I told him i was a vet and I was in and out of the hospital and I could not find my original contract. So i asked him could he look it up for me and he told me he didn't have time to look it up that day. He said it would take sometime and i might find it faster myself. I never received any word back from him so the following week after leaving medical care i went to the Len Stoler dealership. After getting a quick inspection they found my tire needed replacing and they THEN looked up my contract info and saw i rated full coverage on a defective tire. I strongly recommend the vehicle as long as you get the newer Elantra gt sport N-line to ensure you get a LSD stock with the vehicle. As of now i saw the new veloster and fell in love. Again the Hyundai brand is one of the best at least top 3.

Beginning to Question Quality

2018 Elantra GT Sport with 8000 miles since new and car is developing various issues. Been to dealer numerous times and tonight heater/air conditioner fan began making rumbling noise. Did not have these issues with older Elantra GT. More issues at such low miles than I have had with any other make of new car. If issues continue would not recommend this car.

2018 Hyundai ELANTRA GT

I was looking for another brand of car to replace the one I lost in an accident but the Elantra GT I got was better. I like the technology that this car has. I like the display that is fairly easy to read. I especially like the hands-free phone capability.
