2024 Hyundai Elantra driving side view
The Hyundai Elantra model is a sleek, future-forward sedan with ample comfort, tech, and safety features and a top-rated choice for 2024. This nameplate was first released in 1990 and steadily rose in popularity across its global driver base.

Newer vehicles have two engines to choose from: the N Line's 201 horsepower 1.6-liter 4-cylinder or the standard 147 horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, with the N Line being remarkably sporty. Pricing for the Elantra is competitive, with base vehicles starting just under $22,000 and going up to ~$28,500. There's much to enjoy inside and outside the Elantra, so stay tuned!

Hyundai Elantra vs. The Competition

When comparing the Hyundai Elantra model to others in its class, you have vehicles like the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, Volkswagen Jetta, and so on. However, none are quite as expansive in their engine offering and pricing. With the Elantra, you have four distinct trims to select from, with your options being:

  • SE: $21,625
  • SEL: $23,575
  • Limited: $27,065
  • N Line: $28,465

Of course, these figures represent 2024 Elantra models. To put this into perspective, a new Corolla retails for $22,050, while the Honda Civic in 2024 is $23,950. The Jetta is $21,435 but only offers one engine configuration and isn't quite as future-friendly as the Elantra. With Hyundai, you get decades of proven excellence, an industry-leading warranty, and build quality.
