A low coefficient of drag, measured at .30 in wind-tunnel testing, helps deliver increased MPG and makes Elantra GT more aerodynamic than the Subaru Impreza.
Elantra GT uses high tensile and ultra high tensile strength steel for a light, strong and rigid body structure. A stiffer body structure makes for a safer vehicle, plus it allows engineers the added flexibility and opportunity to create a car with better handling and more precise steering.
A powerful yet eco-efficient 2.0L 4-cylinder engine generates 173 hp and 154 lb.-ft. of torque. The aluminum engine block and head with DOHC, 16 valves and Dual-CVVT improve torque and fuel economy with an EPA-estimated 34 Highway MPG.
A sweet-shifting 6-speed manual is standard. The available 6-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC® has a lock-up torque converter for higher fuel economy at freeway speeds.
Fluidic Sculpture is the Hyundai design language that takes its inspiration from the flow of wind and water and their effects on the elements in nature. As you can see, the Elantra GT speaks the language like a native.
This available feature is perfect for adding visibility in rain, dust or even snow and keeping you focused on what's up ahead. They're also a brilliant way to attract attention and help you stand out from the crowd.
Visually stunning just standing still, and even more impressive in motion. You'll feel the big effect of the added traction these available wheels have on handling performance.
With the rear seats folded down, the Elantra GT’s 119.1 cu. ft. of interior volume and 51.0 cu. ft. maximum cargo volume are both more than the Ford Focus 5-Door. As a matter of fact, the Elantra GT has so much room inside that it feels like a midsize car instead of a compact.
A few of the convenient storage areas you’ll find in the Elantra GT include: a cooled glove compartment, a front center-console storage tray, an overhead sunglass holder and a rear-seat center armrest with cupholders. For added flexibility, there is a 60/40 split fold-flat rear seatback and an available rear hidden cargo-area storage compartment.
Not too hot. Not too cold. Just right. That’s how Elantra GT’s ingenious cooled glove compartment keeps whatever you put in it. We’re betting it won’t be gloves.
Usually found in more expensive premium cars, this feature is just one more innovative element of Elantra GT’s comprehensive passive and active safety system.
Elantra GT uses high tensile and ultra high tensile strength steel for a light, strong and rigid body structure. A stiffer body structure makes for a safer vehicle, plus it allows engineers the added flexibility and opportunity to create a car with better handling and more precise steering.
In addition to the driver’s knee airbag, the Elantra GT has six more standard airbags along with safety innovations such as: Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) system, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control System (TCS) plus Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD).
This available feature uses sensors near the windshield glass to detect humidity occurrence and automatically remove humidity on the inside surface of the windshield, improving driving safety and visibility by preventing window fogging.
