"The car drives very smoothly. Granted on some bumps, you feel them but overall a smooth ride. The cabin room is comfortable, even for the rear seats. I found the Elantra to be quite, to the point even a semi passing me, I did not hear it. The sound system is great and have noticed as you go from highway speed to a stop the sound reduces automatically. Not sure if that was by design but this car did so.
Overall, price, looks, ride and performance, this is the car to buy. Compare others but I am confident you will go back to this car. "

"Vehicle a pleasure to drive and operate, engine is so quiet, i find acceleration and power sufficient even when entering parkways. The fit and finish is top notch and cabin is very quiet. This car has a lot of room even back seat passengers have no complaints. this car is on level with corolla, civic and sentra. I compared all three makes and found a lot standard items on the elantra were not offered on the civic, corolla and sentra or were optional. The automatic transmison shifts so smoothly. This is a great car and compared to the other three this car is a real bargain. This is my first hyundai and i would buy another hyundai again. "

"When my wife's 1990 Dodge Shadow finally gave up the ghost, she wanted a car that wasn't too big, was dependable, and didn't cost an arm and a leg. I started by surveying the newer used cars, but soon found that the price of certain smaller new cars was very competitive. As we narrowed the field, the Elantra presented the best combination of features, quality, and price.
So far, we're simply delighted by everything about this vehicle. When the engine turns over, it just purrs, and in fact, our dog no longer knows when we've arrived home, it's that quiet. I was surprised that the headroom was ample for taller drivers (I'm 6'3'), and the interior gives plenty of elbow room. (The Hyundai Accent is a bit narrow for my likes.) The engineering is excellent: it's compact, but has a ton of trunk space, and is taller in the trunk than my Chevy Impala. In fact, my Impala, with a V6, seems to have a little less pep than this 138 HP V4. There are all kinds of nice little details, and everything may not be top-of-the-line, the value is excpetional."

"The car drives great, very smooth, the handling is very agile too. At first the speedometer was blocked by the steering wheel, but the steering wheel is adjustable. I like the little area on the front door arm rests where I can put my cell phone. The power retention feature is quite nice too, I can close my car windows even after I take my keys out already. I test drove this car and the 2007 Nissan Sentra, I definitely prefer the regular transmission over the Sentra's CVT. Being able to listen to my CD's starting from when I last left it is nice too. "
