Elantra Sport - Finally a Compact Economy Car that's Actually Fun to Drive!
I have been relegated to driving compact economy cars for the last 20 years for the commute practicality. Until this particular Elantra that has always been somewhat of a compromise. I have owned a Kia, 2 other Elantras, and a Toyota Corolla during that time. In each case they proved to be practical cars, but not much fun to drive... This 2018 Elantra Sport sedan with the turbocharger, 6 speed manual transmission, and reworked suspension has actually changed all of that (only the Elantra Sport model has the turbocharger and upgraded suspension)! I now drive a car that is practical, pretty nimble, and can actually get out of it's own way! Plus it's dressed up a little, inside and out (lots of cool do-dads and technology). Took a little bit of a hit in the fuel economy, but it was well worth it! I would do it again in a heartbeat!
