2011 Hyundai Elantra In Depth Review, Start Up/Test Drive, and Overview of Features

NOTE: I am trying a new format for these once a week videos, I normally don't talk as much but I figured since I knew a lot about the new elantra I would try it out on this. I'm still learning and adapting to this weekly review style and it'll take time to get better, any constructive criticism is appreciated, thanks! In this video I bring everyone the all new Hyundai Elantra, my first video on the Elantra Limited was a huge hit when it first came out so I thought I would bring the GLS specificially with the navigation option (which the limited I filmed did not have). I go through pretty much the entire car in detail discussing styling, performance, interior room, as well as take a detailed look at all the options for this car as well as other model designations and the limited trim. The limited does come with standard leather, heated front and rear seats, 17in alloy rims, and much more. The elantra, being classified as a midsize car boasts more room than even the nissan maxima, combined with all the standard features, optional ones, and even class firsts such as the heated seats, the elantra makes a terrific buy with 29/40 mpg and a 10 yr 100k mile warranty.

Kyle this was simply amazing. I'd say your best review ever. Keep it up your commentary is great! Just from this video I'm now a fan of the new elantra!

[@raptorclans]

That was a rather awesomely detailed review dude. I wish more car reviews were done this way. I felt like I was in the car, outside the car, tried almost every feature and also test-drove it... all by watching your video. Now I feel really hungry to get it... Thanks man =)

[@lpoverdrive]

Love the new professional filming style! camera looks amazing in HD! :) love your vids Kyle, amazing as always, I would definatly buy this car 100% :)

[@UInACrash]

Kyle I remember one day a year or two back I searched for a video of a car that I couldn't find any videos of and was instantly hooked by the diversity of videos in this channel. This is my favorite subscription of any channels I am subscribed too. On a side note- this car is a product of a company that did its homework and listened to the consumer.

[@Y3y0ish3re]

Hey man, YOU are the only one until now that shows the shifting!! Nice review and test drive! Keep it going!

[@ahmadfreshb0y]

i use to watch cars direct but your much better kyle i like the way u do ur videos and your always on time when uploading the vids good job bro

[@05Forenza]

Wow wow wow! You just keep getting better! This was far more polished looking, in your body language than was the one with magazine. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@bajukuyup]

i subscribed your channel because u made the most detail review on cars. And this one is even better! keep up the good work man!

[@bowlofarthritus8558]

btw. The car is pretty decent to get laid in. Im 6 foot and was still comfortable :p

[@valentinedpg]

noting beats my first gen xB.. the back is like a spa room with its perks and quirks. ;)

[@jtrain369ful]

i like the way you started this video out front talking about the car..i also like you out test driving the car as well with both day and night driving so we can see what the interior looks lit up..keep up the good work

[@Moviedork2247]

Great review. You make me want to go buy one right now. I already have the 2010 Hyundai Tucson Limited. Your review was my basis on getting the car so thank you Kyle.

[@mynando]

Awesome review. Very in-depth. I'm considering this car and you've helped sway my decision to buy it.

[@sbessette91]

Excellent review Kyle! Your videos get better and better!

[@muiscnight]

the dashboards look at night puts me in my happy place lol so calming

[@nomadic_inflight]

What started as a boy loving cars then making 1-5 minute videos or tours of cars has become a guy who makes 8-20 minute video reviews which in turn has turned into a guy who does all three plus a new job as a reporter for the Clutch Magazine and also a guy being shown on TV. Congratulations Kyle and thank you for taking your time in making your reviews when you have the time.

[@mcmt1139]

This is the most complete review of the car I'd replace my old accent with. Hyundai has become a true contender and their customer service is the best I've experienced in my area.

[@urafudgehead]

Thanks a lot, I'm considering this exact model right now; this video helps immensely.

[@JoshJW11]

Kyle... your a boss! Best car vids around hands down!

[@rocoso121]

Quedó excelente el nuevo formato. Felicitaciones

[@lalabutan01]

This is the Best Review so far of the elantra :)

[@glui2001]

Great review! Very thorough, detailed, and comprehensive! I guess you could be a more "relaxed" but it didn't diminish the review presentation at all!

[@mikeosia1]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! very useful and very detailed review. Very much appreciated!

[@iwingkitli86]

Perfect review. Thanks for giving an updated review on the elantra. I'm in the market for a compact car!!! Solidified my reasons to buy a elantra!

[@michelinman8592]

I'm speechless! That was fantastic!

[@ca13814]

My grandma got one of these Saturday I got to drive it... I LOVE IT!!!!!! IT HAS SHIFT-TRONIC!!!!!!!

[@chelseaburnham1989]

best review ive ever seen!!

[@w140fan]

great video kyle

[@StreetersGarage]

Nice Video - love the new format.

[@rzarzarzarza84]

Awesome review as usual!

[@xogus8551]

Good review i have to say nice job kyle!

[@kpxinfo]

You are a major asset to KZbin users. THANK YOU!

[@phlewis86]

I like that car a lot. In the past I would not have given Hyundai a second thought but today is a new day.

[@shirleykincaid4636]

l Like this video of the hyundai Elantra GLS.. THanks for showing full detail even at night.. Like the Blue lighting compared to the red lighting .. nice car

[@jazzy-chan0512]

I wanna see more of the vehicle feature reviews and test drives in your newer videos Kyle!

[@russellseilhamer4552]

Excellent review

[@DerAdventurer]

Kyle, you're doing great!

[@monkuashu]

great video kyle!!!!

[@slyguyaction]

I want the Allure Red Limited with tan interior and every option. Great review!

[@sixthefirst]

Great Review! Great Car! Keep Up The Great Work!

[@twistedmacVIDEO]

GREAT video!!! Just this past weekend I signed the paperwork for a 2011 Hyundai Elantra GLS "White". Though they are trucking the car from out of province (due to me selecting the particular color & model) I hope to have it by the end of the week. I have both driven and looked over the car and looked over many reviews online before I decided to run with this car & today I just seen your review which just has me even more eager to get a hold of the car!! Well done review with lots of detail!!

[@Pendragon1989]

Yes Kyle, very professionally done. I love the Elantra, and knowing I can get one for 15-16K Is a heck of a deal!

[@khalid4001]

Nice In depth review.

[@Snaremambo]

Nice Video Kyle!

[@micjozz]

a review at night!! awesome!

[@YELLOWxSNOW]

I like this new style of your videos alot Kyle however i do miss the old ones as well /: But these are so prod!!! Like a TV show!! But no matter how you do your videos you will always have my support

[@hazdazzler]

really good video dude, waiting for your civic 2012 review...

[@leepakim]

great car and great review!

[@bsp1148]

HMA should hire you as their permanant spokes person for their cars. You are doing a fabulous job in car reviews. Your videos always hit right on what audiences want to know about the cars that you present and you are getting better at it. I get more of indept new car information from you than some other big name car reviewers such as cars.com or consumer reports. Kudos to you.

[@1kounter]

nice review

[@guajoboag]

Very good video. Even at night !

[@ktonlai]

much better than your last professional video review

[@buzzfledder229]

Excellent touch with the Nirvana. Hahah. Nice edit, too!

[@Nicklyft]

Note at 8:20 the average mpg reading 18.7mpg... So much for the 28 city lol. This thing gets 21.5/22 city if you drive it very very gently...It can easily be only 18.5/19... It's highway mpg is much better at 33-40mpg (33mpg at 80mph; 35mpg at 70; 40mpg at 60)

[@TJC450]

This car looks great in red very sporty and that nav system kept up very well it didn't lag like others.

[@narcis4none]

very professional vid!!!

[@Friendly0Dan]

I LOVE THIS CAR! AND THIS REVIEW!

[@superravmanrampage]

I LOVE how he always says "Hey everyone, Hows it going?" hahaha

[@ThePKProject]

Love the styling of video! It's amazing!!! I'd figure I'd make a suggestion, though it doesn't need any improvement. Perhaps you can incorporate some sort of background music when introducing the car and viewing it from the outside. It would jazz it up a lot. Your choice to do that though, it's fine the way it is :)

[@crystalscan2002]

Great Job Kyle, that car is fancy for eco box lol

[@Snyd3rs]

very nice and profesional video. keep it up !

[@zanjani13]

another great episode of the new season on Saabkyle04!

[@SuperSportSS]

Best car tour vids on youtub.

[@reifsneider]

Hi I am the Hyundia Elantra, I like to have fun and go fast, and with me the fun never stops!!!

[@wotan20]

Wonderful presentation about a very desirable car, distinguished by its high quality, beautiful, yet advanced design which sells for a surprisingly reasonable price. This is such a formidable combination, that it far surpassed anything domestic, it rolled over most of the European competition, and now it forces even the best of the Japanese to work harder.

[@Blueball0120]

Very nice!

[@MrNismoSR20]

Dude, you're gonna be on the Speed channel soon. Best of luck to ya.

[@Shqiptarivertet]

Beautiful review. You always take yourself real good time to review cars. Kyle, do you have the opportunity to review an Mercedes C63 AMG? I would love it if you could.

[@jiameshacavers1726]

I’m getting this car tomorrow thanks for the video 🙏🏾🤗🚗 beep beep I’m on my way lol

[@McWrisk]

Can anyone say next "Car and Driver" Reviewer? Very nicely done, as always!

[@motormusique]

Nice work as always Kyle, but I don't usually find reviews that praise a car endlessly to be very helpful. Surely, there have to be some shortcomings, or car and driver would not have placed this midpack in a recent comparo. Just something to think about!

[@tillifesend]

Hey Kyle I was wondering if you had any plans on reviewing a Mitsubishi Lancer anytime soon. I'm really interesting in the GTS and the RalliArt Editions. You are my new go to guy when it comes to car reviews. Plus I'm a NC boy, so in each video, I find myself trying to guess where exactly in the state you are. lol. Awesome job.

[@thearaban]

your videos are great! I don't have to deal with dealers/salesman just to look at a car lol

[@rockerdriver]

Nightime driving I like it!

[@KhrissyDaDon]

Saabkyle is the BEST car reviewer EVER, i learned alot about cars just by watching his videos.

[@13slot28]

u do a really job on reviews.. do a 2011 Scion tc!!

[@SLOTFEVER]

He did a excellent job on the elantra ~ If he notices that you have to push hard for the horn))) to work or if difficult to see out of mirrors on cars I would like him to mention it. I like how he told about the steering on this car

[@BrunoPaula76]

Very good videos, I follow them all through their KZbin channel. This car has not yet arrived here in Brazil, here we have the Azera, Sonata 2011 arrived here a few months, the New Santa Fe and Veracruz, and the I30 and the ix35. I do not know if there already launched in the USA, the 2012 Azera. I wanted to see you doing the video of this beautiful car. A great job for you. Bruno - São Paulo - Brazil Sorry, my English is not good.

[@DerangedSloth555]

The interior looks great at night!

[@ddnn3]

What camera did you get? How much better is it than your last powershot? and great job on the video!

[@alex.starostin]

This car is a bomb! I'll even say that it's already a classic

[@w140fan]

nobody does it like you man

[@jordancurtiss]

Look dude u wont regret buying this i bought a 2013 hyundai elantra back i aug never 1 problem so smooth great gas milage good power!!!

[@barbaraeverett3566]

[@barbaraeverett3566]

[@SCbusloverevelyn4247]

"2013 is the worst elantra year because of engine problems"

[@Chibodian]

this is a very nice car!

[@tbskirk]

Kyle your doing great with the reviews man ! keep it up ! It may also be time to get a haircut !

[@ThatCarGuy2]

*you're

[@MrIrrepressible]

hyundai auto gearboxes are solid, I have a 2003 tiburon shiftronic and the car is 10 yrs old and still shift smoothly in both manual and auto mode. kudos to hyundai

[@idaloki]

14:14 Super awesome!!

[@TerryFilming]

I have a friend that drives an Elantra and has been getting mileage in the lower 30s. No one lied. It's probably how the driver is driving. Neither have the salesmen, they are supplying facts that many other Americans get in a gallon of tank.

[@bsp1148]

2012 NA car of the year. It looks even better now.

[@RaveenKari]

@1bentley4ever hahaha, thanks for that little side note

[@MrZubersa]

nice detailed review...one question thou. how is the interior noise(engine,suspension) compared to a civic or corolla??

[@PaytonBelknap]

This was a fantastic review! I'm hopefully about to purchase a 2011 Elantra at the end of July beginning of August. So excited! This sedan has a powerful puny for the price!! 😁

[@neoks6464]

Nice dude ! I think buying the Elantra as my first car.... ! Can't wait till november-december when I get my driver license :P

[@Cobre2014]

@Jordan Curtis I had a 2005 elantra gls that my family got brand new at the dealership. Had over 220,000 miles and never had to replace a single part, never broke down, never leaked a single drop of oil. Best freakin car ever

[@Hammar89]

@superravmanrampage Another line thats been stuck in my mind is '' High Intensity Discharged headlights '' haha. Great vid as always Kyle, you should appear on Top Gear =D

[@vmcn2]

very nice review! I think this car is a very appropriate in it's class. I have mazda 3 which I like, but this time, hyundai set new standart level, well done. However, how would you define the reliability and interior quality in this car?

[@StreetersGarage]

@andrefrbk Minor body tweaks will be in will be in year 2.

[@datboiwes333]

@mpc516 oh so you've driven one of these new Hyundais?

[@bowlofarthritus8558]

I traded in my 2012 Accent for a used 2011 Elantra for what I was paying for the Accent (I work my 2nd job PT at a Hyundai dealer anyways).... "Apparently", which is what I have seen, mine was customed. Its cloth seats, but has the Navi system with the back up camera (also came with blu tooth).... To my understanding, the Navi and rear camera isn't available unless you have the leather seats. So someone spent another 2 grand or so on this.... Its a damn good GPS that's for sure

[@StreetersGarage]

@TheDenis7990 What your seeing is the evolution of Kyle. It's only natural for thing's to change and improve. It look's like he's headed on to bigger and better thing's

[@tenchichrono]

Was gonna get this but went with the Sonata instead. Hyundai FTW!!!

[@matthewlau254]

hey kyle btw you think you can get a new subaru forester vid sometime within the new future? the new generation one i mean
