Underrated, but will eventually be undisputed.
Honestly, when I decided to lease the car, I didn’t care what car it was, I just needed a car. I wasn’t looking for a Hyundai in particular. Literally, I just needed any car with a cheap payment, that was covered under factory warranty.
Nonetheless, although I ended up in this Hyundai, which would not have been my first choice (at allll), I have to say that I, even till this day, am shocked to see how nice this entry level car is. It far exceeded my expectations.
Although this is technically a cheap car, absolutely nothing in the car feels cheap. After a year, there’s no buttons that are falling off, or have stopped working. There’s nothing that has cosmetically been worn out. Nothing that leaves me saying that anything has to be replaced. And the icing on the cake is that everything works perfectly.
The honest truth, do I see myself buying a new Hyundai after my lease ends??? No, I don’t. But does the reason that I won’t be getting a new Hyundai have to do anything with my Elantra? No. The reason I won’t be getting a new Hyundai is because my financial situation has changed drastically since I first decided to lease my Hyundai (which I LOVE). God willing, I anticipate my next vehicle to be a S-Class, from Mercedes.
I, nor anyone I know has ever owned a Hyundai. It’s always been Toyotas; Nissans; or Hondas. But as far as a first car is concerned, I am now convinced that if the Elantra isn’t smoking the three aforementioned, then I know that the three aforementioned isn’t gonna smoke the Elantra. The Elantra is a formidable foe to all these entry level cars and should be a great source of anxiety for the competition.
I know that when my wife gets her license, or my older brother wants a new car, I’m taking them to the Hyundai dealership to get them a brand new Elantra. I would recommend this car to anyone. I just hope that Hyundai keeps it’s competitive spirit to continue to design their entry level vehicle in such a fashion that people like me go from saying “Ahhh, this works,” to “Yo, this is not that bad,” and ultimately to “Wow, I really like this car.” Please keep in mind that’s what Toyota and Honda did. Nowadays, people who know nothing about cars still automatically know that Hondas and Toyotas are good cars, whether new or used. Hyundai has the opportunity to work towards that milestone if they keep cars like this Elantra consistent.
I hope this feedback helps.
