Interior & Exterior

The exterior is what grabs you when you first see the 2012 Elantra. It looks like a coupe. It’s stylish and it’s sexy but then again, it may not appeal to everyone, especially those with conservative aesthetic tastes which can opt for the designs that the Forte and Cruze have to offer.The interior is impressive as well, equipped with a navigation system, a rearview camera, heated seats (first for an affordable car) and Bluetooth connectivity. It offers a lot of room, especially out in the front seats where tall people can still sit comfortably: plus points for a small car. The leather seats add that luxe points for the car too. The steering wheel comes with a tilt and telescopic models. The stereo system will make any music lover happy. The car also features USB ports as well, for your iPod or any other mp3 player. The Hyundai Elantra offers up to 14.8 cubic feet of space for your cargo but the seats can be folded.
