Hyundai Elantra : No. 1 Compact Car in J D Powers IQS 2009
 
 
 
     
 

 

Hyundai Elantra promises not only has a sporty appeal but has a tradition of comfort and reliability. In fact, Elantra is so well-thought-out that it was named Highest Ranked Compact Car in Initial Quality by J.D. Power and Associates’ 2009 Initial Quality Study. The IQS study measures attributes, including the overall driving experience, engine and transmission, and a broad range of defect and design problems reported by vehicle owners.  

“Outperforming all of our competitors once again is a reflection of the dedication of all Hyundai team members,” said a senior Hyundai official.  Making room for your needs, this extraordinary vehicle provides added cabin space, redesigned styling, enhanced safety & improved performance. All new from headlight to taillight, Elantra brings more refinement, safety and interior space to owners. 

MODERN & confident Design- Elantra continues the dramatic new styling resurgence introduced on the all-new models – refined and confident. This new theme resonates in Elantra’s assertive front appearance, sculpted body side and an overall lively appearance. For a more upscale appearance, chrome headlight bezels and grille bars highlight Elantra’s assertive face. The profile of Elantra features confidently sculpted surfaces, an expressive bodyside character line and a clean look with bodycolor door handles and mirrors. The rear styling compliments the front design with taillamps echoing the theme of the headlamps, and the cohesive look continues with a bodycolored rear license plate garnish and integrated bumper fascia.  

AMAZING COMFORT- Elantra is wider and taller than its predecessor. Increasing the height 2.2 inches and moving the driver’s seating position up 1.8 inches opens up the cabin for more room and flexibility. Two inches of added width deliver more front and rear shoulder room as well.  

A “CLASS ABOVE” INTERIOR, MORE ROOM THAN ITS COMPETITORS - The repackaging delivers a remarkably spacious interior – one that is truly a “class above” for interior room. Elantra is so roomy the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifies it as a mid-size car, not a compact car like its competitors. With 97.9 cubic feet of passenger room and 14.2 cubic feet of trunk space, the Elantra has the most interior volume (passenger volume plus trunk space) for a sedan in its class. Elantra’s total interior volume of 112.1 cubic feet easily betters the space offered by its peers.  

TOUCH OF STYLE - Thoughtful design touches bring harmony and substance to Elantra’s interior. The dashboard slopes downward to give a feeling of more space and greater visibility while offering an aesthetic shape. The contrasting two-tone color schemes of beige and gray tones, combined with metallic finishes match the more sophisticated and upscale exterior styling. New levels of detail and craftsmanship are found throughout the interior. Blue back lighting adds a youthful, but refined ambience at night. 

SUPer-Clean Engine - Hyundais advanced 2.0-liter in-line 4-cylinder engine powers Elantra. This sophisticated 16-valve powerplant employs an aluminum cylinder head that features dual overhead camshafts (DOHC) and Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT). The combination helps give the engine a very broad power spread, coupled with high fuel efficiency and low emissions. The Elantra comes standard with a precise five-speed manual gearbox. A smooth four-speed automatic with a new gated console-mounted floor shifter is available.  

reliability at its best - Elantra’s design team worked to solve the classic design tradeoffs between interior roominess, agility and driving comfort. On one hand, interior space and cargo room are critically important to a sedan in its class; on the other hand, secure, responsive handling and good road isolation are also priorities when it comes to reliability. An advanced, motor-driven, engine-speed-sensing rack-and-pinion power steering ensures the new Elantra has a more agile driving feeling than the key competitors. Elantra delivers a comfortable ride and responsive handling thanks to a front MacPherson strut suspension with coil springs and gas shock absorbers, and multi-link suspension and twin-tube gas shock absorbers.  

Hyundai as a brand has made significant strides on the back of sophisticated product design, leading-edge quality, safety technology and exceptional value. The last few years are of special significance for Hyundai – not only because Hyundai has become one of the top automotive brands in the world, but also because it has beaten some renowned brands in quality. One has to test drive and discover what millions of satisfied Hyundai owners already know – Hyundai stands for uncompromising quality.
