2023 Hyundai Elantra review

1. Power that suits your style

The 2023 Hyundai Elantra has plenty of under-the-hood action, thanks to three gas-powered engine options. The SE, SEL, and Limited trims are powered by a 147-hp 2.0L engine, delivering smooth acceleration and pleasing fuel economy—an EPA-estimated 34 mpg combined.

2. Journey-enhancing tech

From first-time car buyers to seniors enjoying their best years yet, the 2023 Hyundai Elantra provides tech everyone can enjoy. The 8- or 10.25-inch center console touchscreen ensures entertainment, and connectivity features are accessible for everyone, with easy-to-follow menu screens, standard Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto^™ connectivity, and hands-free Bluetooth^® calling. Available ambient interior lighting in 64 different colors means you can set the mood for motivation on an early morning start, or set the scene for a romantic date night in the city.

3. The exclusive Elantra N

The dynamically styled 2023 Hyundai Elantra N will not only stir your soul, but also turn heads. Looks-wise, it's stunning to behold. Trim-exclusive design features include large-bore dual exhaust outlets, a rear wing spoiler, and a stylized front grille. Powered by a 276-hp 2.0L turbo engine with trim-exclusive launch control functionality and an electronically controlled suspension, the Elantra N ensures track days are a blast, and also brings everyday excitement to your regular highway driving.

4. Space for everyone (and everything)

When you want assurance of trip capability for you and your loved ones, the size of your sedan matters. Standard across all 2023 Hyundai Elantra models is a spacious 14.2 cu-ft trunk with the option to flip the rear seats flat, giving you even more space for journeys with pet crates, moving boxes, or antique market finds. Plus, your friends and family will love the broad and spacious seating. Rear-row seats boast 38 inches of legroom and 55.6 inches of shoulder room—generous dimensions for both LATCH-fixed child seats and your tallest family members.

5. A premium-feeling cabin experience

Long drives and regular commutes in the 2023 Elantra are blissful, thanks to the dedication to detail Hyundai brings to the in-cabin experience. A tranquil atmosphere is made possible by tight door and glass seals that keep outside noise and vibrations to a minimum. Standard solar-control glass keeps you comfortable through the brightest days, while available heated front seats can warm you on winter mornings.
