Performance
Want an engine powerful enough to get you into traffic in no time at all without sacrificing fuel efficiency? There’s the 1.8-liter Nu inline four-cylinder engine, which provides 145 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque. And if you land in the aptly named Sport trim, the engine is tweaked to 173 horsepower and 154 lb-ft of torque. Although the engine on the SE and Sport trims is hitched to a six-speed manual transmission, you can exchange it for the six-speed automatic transmission, which is on the other two trims. Featuring SHIFTRONIC technology and the Active ECO system, the automatic gearbox is engineered for improved real-world fuel economy, which peaks at 32 miles per gallon.
Interior
The 2016 Hyundai Elantra sedan has a total interior volume of 110.4 cubic feet. That’s more than what other leading compact cars in the market offer. The advantage is that you and your passengers have a roomier commute and a more relaxing experience. Power-adjustable driver’s seat is standard on the 2016 Elantra, with power lumbar support added on the Sport and Limited and front-seat heating capability on all trims but the SE. For optimizing comfort, go for the top-level Limited, which also comes with back-seat heating capability and leather upholstery.
Features
Far from a moving appliance, the 2016 Hyundai Elantra is beautiful to look at, with a rising roofline and an elongated wheelbase. You can enhance it further with projector headlights with LED accents, LED tail lights, black chrome front grille, and huge 17-inch alloy wheels if you go with the Sport or Limited. For entertainment, the 2016 Elantra gets a six-speaker stereo system with a 3-month SiriusXM satellite radio subscription. With the upper-level Elantra trims, there will be optional or additional standard features like turn-signal indicators on the power side mirrors, front fog lights, push-button engine start, power sunroof, Bluetooth hands-free phone system, navigation system, and rearview camera.
Safety
The 2016 Hyundai Elantra is well equipped with a six-airbag system that includes occupant classification sensors for preventing the front passenger airbag from deploying if the front passenger is of insufficient weight. Also on the vehicle is a remote keyless entry security system with panic alarm; and a vehicle stability management system that incorporates traction control, electronic stability control, anti-lock braking (ABS), and motor-driven power steering. Small wonder why the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) named the Elantra sedan a 2015 IIHS Top Safety Pick.
