Hyundai unveils Elantra replacement in Korea
Hyundai used its home-market Busan Motor Show to unveil the replacement for its world-market Elantra. Known domestically as the Avante, the new sedan follows closely in the automaker’s more shapely style that was introduced in the Sonata.
Introduced just days after Hyundai took the wraps off of its sub-Avante Verna (known in North America as the Accent), the Avante was by far the biggest premier at the Busan show.
Expected to go on sale in early Fall in South Korea, we’ll likely have to wait a few months before Hyundai unveils the North American-specification Elantra. We are expecting to see both of these cars in showroom in late winter of 2010 and early winter 2011. Both of these cars will be game changers in their classes.
Powered by Hyundai’s latest 1.6-liter direct-injected Gamma-series four-cylinder, the Avante also features a new six-speed automatic transmission. Hyundai says the motor is good for about 138 horsepower and will help the sedan be about 10 percent more efficient than its rivals, which include the Mazda Mazda3, Honda Civic and Ford Focus.
Look for the production world-market Elantra’s formal debut to likely occur in late September at the Paris Motor Show, with a North American on sale date of late 2010 or early 2011 as either a 2011 or 2012 model. We don’t expect many styling changes between the North American variant and the Korean domestic market Avante, although North America is slated to receive a 200-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder as the top powertrain offering.
Toyota, Honda and Ford are being put on notice by Hyundai at each and every “segment turn”. Hyundai is here to stay and now ready to play!

2009 Hyundai Elantra GLS
Posted in Hyundai Elantra
Just call the Hyundai Elantra the comeback kid. First introduced in the early ’90s, this economy-priced sedan didn’t exactly get off to an auspicious beginning. Early Elantras quickly earned a well-deserved reputation for overall shoddiness and unreliability.
Since then, though, the Elantra has dramatically improved, offering better reliability, agreeable performance and a long list of standard features. Suddenly, this Korean automaker’s longtime also-ran is now a class leader. Take it for a spin and you’ll likely be impressed by its exceptionally smooth ride and responsive handling. Throw in its roomy cabin (which features a backseat that’s spacious enough to accommodate grown-ups with ease), solid build quality and lengthy list of safety features, and the Elantra establishes itself as a formidable competitor in its category.

The 2010 Hyundai Elantra is one of those cars that will make you feel like you’ve found something really special. It’s like a hole-in-the-wall restaurant that doesn’t look like much from the outside but serves up tantalizing meals on the inside. The unassuming Elantra aces just about every test that really matters for economy car buyers. For a price comparable to the Honda Civic, Mazda 3 and Toyota Corolla, the Elantra delivers much more space and comfort for passengers. To further sweeten the deal, the Elantra also comes with a slightly lower price, respectable fuel economy, a capacious trunk and a generous warranty.
Hyundai hasn’t tinkered much with the current-generation Elantra since it debuted back in 2007, but there are a few notable changes for 2010. This year’s new entry-level Blue trim level provides enhanced fuel economy thanks to engine tweaks that include a “smart” alternator management system, lower-friction engine components, revised transmission gear ratios, engine calibration changes and a shift indicator for the manual transmission. The rest of the automatic-equipped Elantra line also receives these engine modifications to similarly raise fuel economy. The overall increase is modest — just an extra mpg or two — but it does help the Elantra stay competitive with other small sedans in terms of efficiency.
