2014 Hyundai Elantra Series 2 Review
2014 HYUNDAI ELANTRA REVIEW
What's hot: Suspension tune feels European, standard sat-nav on Elite and Premium
What's not: Engine is a bit old hat, 'Flex Steer' system is gimmicky
X-FACTOR: Bigger than an i30, smaller than the i40, Hyundai's Elantra is one for the 'in-between'
Vehicle Style: Small sedan
Price: $20,990 (Active manual) to $30,190 (Premium auto)
Engine/trans: 110kW/178Nm 4cyl petrol | 6spd manual or auto
Fuel Economy claimed: 6.6 l/100km (manual)
OVERVIEW
Hyundai’s Elantra has come in for a refresh: some minor styling changes, a revised interior, more standard equipment and re-engineered suspension and steering.
The price has risen slightly though, nudging the entry-level Elantra Active manual just under the $21k mark. It now tips the scales at $20,990.
Step up a model to the Elite, and the manual has been ditched; it's now $26,790 and an auto-only proposition.
At the top of the model range, the Elantra Premium moves up $1k to $30,190.
Meanwhile, across the range, there's a new locally-developed suspension tune. We travelled to the 2014 Elantra’s local launch to check it out.
