Best car I've ever owned

Fuel efficient, quality ride and very low maintenance costs. We are the original owners and love the little car very much. Definitely worth the investment. Have put 120,000 plus on this little car and I'm confident in saying it will definitely make it to 200,000 plus miles and still be looking good.

great car

I have had my 2012 elantra for for 7+ years - I am the second owner- I have not had any serious issues with the car at all. this was the first time I bought a non american car- the maintenance is minimal and the car continues on and looks great- if I had the money, I would love to buy a brand new elantra!

Love my 2012 Elantra Ltd!

I love my 2012 ELANTRA LTD! It has all the extras I wanted; sunroof, Bluetooth, heated seats and I love the silver-blue color, which I requested as a make it-or break it selling point. I got it all and I'd buy one again!

Very nice car

The Hyundai Elantra is an outstanding car, very smooth ride and unbelievably fast. After driving it for five years I have spent zero dollars on repair.s. The warranty coverage provided by Hyundai corporation is a budget insurance very very reliable with no hassles about qualifying for a covered expenses.

Hyundai Elantra

After 105,000 miles the car still drives as well as when I bought it new. I never had a car like this and I had many. Only issue. Car is a bit low and may have a less than substantial rear axil. I had one issue regarding a slightly bent rear axil. This was not covered by the warrantee and I had to fork up the total cost. I felt this expense occurred due to a failure of the part rather then driving. But this was the only negative after a many years of exceptional service.

Luv my car

They stand behind their word on fixing what's wrong. They stood behind the mileage issues and any warranty issues with no problem. The service employees have always been great. When I get money to buy again, I will go with Hyundai again.

My car

I have loved my Elantra since day one! The colors offered are great. I felt there was more room in the backseat in the Elantra than in the Sonata. I carry grandchildren and they have plenty of room.

Remarkably Reliable

This 2012 Elantra has been the most reliable, tough, and economical vehicle I have ever owned! I have owned it since it was brand new, and in that time only one headlight, and a transmission temperature sensor have had to be replaced. The fuel mileage is great, even though the car is no slouch in traffic.It goes through snow, with the stock tires, so well there is no need for snow tires at all. The air conditioner still works as new eight years after purchase! In fact all the features of the car still are functioning as well as the day we bought it. There isn't a trace of rust and the car looks like new, even thought it is driven year round. Easy to get in and out of, with a convenient layout of controls and features. It has been a superb vehicle for us, simply superb!

NICE CAR FOR COMMUTE.

Acquired 2012 in 2015. My wife is primary driver to and from work. Good mileage and comfortable ride. Would likely buy again or move up to Sonata and upgrade options. Good to fit a couple of grandchildren in the rear. No maintenance problems. Options would be sunroof, leather seats, and external cameras.

great car

Have not had any major problems with my car. I am very satisfied. So far only oil changes and new tires and filters and bulb were needed. Only problem the visor broke - first on passenger side (I can see this since I use this visor) - but now also on passenger side (this one is never used).

2012 Elantra LTD

It is a good vehicle and gets excellent gas mileage. I have 162500 miles on it now and the only big problem I had was resolved when I installed an aftermarket brake light switch. This problem was covered online and it was a 15.00 repair. It has been in over 1k miles without any repeat problems.

great gas milage and sporty

Paint is very durable and minimal rock chips. Holds a good shine even for a 2012 model. Trunk is pretty spacious for a smaller car. I do not like the lighter colored seats because they show dirt easy. I do my own oil changes and is easy to assess the filter and oil drain. 108K and expect to hit 200k with the normal maintenance. Very peppy engine for 1.8 liter. 30MPG city driving and close to 40 on a trip.

I love my Elantra

Sleek, powerful pick-up at traffic lights, saves money on gas mileage, easy to drive, super warranty, great price and lots of features for a compact car. I am the original owner of a 2012 and have never had any issues.

Great car

We have had our Elantra for 8 years now and still love it! It has been great on gas mileage. We haven’t had any mechanical problems. We have over 100,000 miles on it and it is still running well.

This my 2nd one that will also make it to 100,000 miles.

Not only is this my 2nd Hundai Elantra, I hope to purchase a 3rd...in another year or 2. My brother bought one too, and loves it. Hundai stands behind their products, usually replacing items that failed, rather than fixing them.

Soooo Dependable

I bought my Elantra as a new car in 2012. It has been a wonderfully dependable vehicle. I would highly recommend an Elantra to anyone looking for a good car. Not only has it been dependable but it has great leg room both for front and back passengers and has great style. I wasn’t able to buy one with a lot of bells and whistles but this one has been a joy to have. If I could afford a new car I’d buy another Elantra without hesitation.

Great little car

My Elantra has served me well since 2012. It is comfortable but I wish the driver's seat were more comfortable and higher because at times I have run over cement parking space markers and pulled the splash guard off. This has happened numerous times. Overall it is a nice small car.
