In the past few years, #Hyundai has continuously made strides time and time again, to put their vehicles at the pinnacle of some of their respective markets. Out of all of them, the #Elantra has stood the test of time and to this day, remains the company's best seller overall, selling over 150,000 units for 2018 so far. But with time comes change and for 2019, Korea's best selling compact sedan has received quite the makeover, but even still, can the newly redone #HyundaiElantra hold on to its crown despite the new face? Watch the review to find out!

I just got my 2019 Elantra Value Edition and I love it!☺️ I got the same color shown in the video.

[@shimfperry3153]

Do you still have it?

I’m about to get mine this weekend 😊 in sliver!

[@SimplyGallup]

I just bought a 2019 Limited edition👍🏼👍🏼 love it

[@umeshpatel2279]

How much you paid?

[@brandoncadena3025]

Did you ever upgrade the suspension?

[@aryehrosenthal2138]

Great review. I don't appreciate that Hyundai removed the driver's power seat on all trim levels besides for the top of the line limited trim level.

[@porkfat8109]

Love the large trunk and hand break. Blind spot is a great addition. Telescoping steering wheel, yes it seems like a great commuter car to me. Overall exterior design is not all full of crazy angles but I still would like less. I think it's a good car.

[@sedanchair2]

Back end looks great. They did junk up the front. They also junked up the dials with the checked look. They just couldn't leave the clean black background alone.

[@smartman123]

i own one same year 2019 i am surprised how reliable this car is

[@jpmccormac]

Nice review, but you didn't mention the seats and seat controls. No lumbar support unless you get the Limited model. FYI. The Elantra did get the IIHS Top Safety Pick Plus award, but only for models "with optional front crash prevention and specific headlights; applies only to vehicles built after September 2018." Still and all a nice set of features for the price.

[@asap_n8]

Very good informative video! I learned a lot more about my car, thank you!

[@travisp11]

Solid review! We were looking at a Subaru Impreza but with the CVT problems we can´t chance it and no, the wife wont drive a manual transmission. Looks like we will be going Hyundai.

[@knowbodiesfull5768]

travisp11 Better hurry and get one quick. The Elantra will switch to CVT in 2020.

[@travisp11]

Man, dont even tell me that. One of the reasons why we want to trade our Honda is because of the CVT. I wonder about the Sonata, if that will be changing, too?

[@Anna-or4ts]

i just got mine today for my first car!! i’m so exictied

[@shimfperry3153]

Do you still have it?

[@Anna-or4ts]

@@shimfperry3153 yes i do

[@rich1958]

This is a great value car and still people making comments and complaining about nonsense. You can’t even get a used car at this price point anymore. But then there’s “that guy” complaining about cup holders in the rear seat? Who cares??

[@petergilbert144]

The rear has not changed at all. My 2017 Value Edition has the cup holders that slide from the center console's rear, because it doesn't have the rear armrest. And those rear cup holders really do hold just about any sized drink well skinny for super fat.

[@reckless383]

When are you getting your hands on a sport trim to review?

[@bluesky5384]

I sat in the back of my friend's base Tucson once and those plastic backs on the seats are horrible. I'm tall though.

[@RemixedVoice]

I like this car... Thanks for the review. By the way, it's pronounced hyun-day, not hyun-die lol! 🤭

[@GrandPrixGTP02]

Thanks for the correction. I recently had the chance to meet the CEO of Hyundai North America and that's how I heard it from him, so can't go wrong there. But again, so many people say it so many different ways these days.

[@nrsmythe]

It's actually pronounced hee-un-dai (as in dye)or hyun-dai (as in dye)

[@seansean681]

It’s pronounced Hun-day like Sunday in the United States. Hyundai had a commercial that said so. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIqQZpekaNlnrq8

[@nrsmythe]

@@seansean681 In the United States. Otherwise, the "y" is sounded out, and the "ai" is pronounced "eye" Example: Banzai. I'm Asian.

[@TheCorkscrew66]

Norma Incorrect. Banzai is not a Korean word, so that logic does not apply. 현대 = Hyun-dae, not “Hyun Dai”

[@Flying4Film]

The 2018 looks better. This looks like the Focus used to look.

[@thecarexpert21]

why did they have to ruin it? Same with the Sonata when they refreshed it. Made it look way worse.

[@eddie054]

Why did they mess it up? Maybe I better buy a new Accent soon before they screw that up too.

[@pottytheparrot310]

At least it looks like the 2018 Elantra

[@thomasmessina1977]

Can you shift from plus to minus when you are driving or should you only shift when you are in park and should you shift to plus when going down hill or minus

[@davidm5707]

When you say plus and minus, I assume you mean the Shiftronic; that is used as a manual shifter while you're driving.

[@petergilbert144]

The gear shifter can only be moved moved to the left into manual mode from the Drive position. As far as speed control when going down a steep hill you would want to shift down (-) to a lower gear. The engine will rev higher and this is so you are not riding your brakes down a mountain. Also, if you are going down an icy hill, it helps tramendously for speed control so you don't pick up a dangerously high speed. The car has 6 gears and it will also auto shift for you in manual mode so you don't forget about it when stopping and stall the car from being in a gear too high for the lower speed's RPMs.

[@aryehrosenthal2138]

Does every 2019 Hyundai Elantra comes standard with fog lights?

[@GrandPrixGTP02]

Most of them dont. They either have Daytime Running Lights or LED DRL's/ Fog Lights too.

[@mchlcordell]

Not fog lights those are your blinkers

[@drewski1441]

The design before this one looked way better. Plus Hyundai has joined the CVT trash pack. CVT sucks.

[@Anonymous-ji4sb]

drewski The new Elantra doesn’t have a CVT. m.hyundaiusa.com/build-your-hyundai.aspx?vehicle=elantra&year=2019

[@TaijiArban]

Elantra still doesn't have any cvt. As far as I know no Hyundai has any cvt as of yet. Only Kia's switching to cvts.

[@drewski1441]

@@TaijiArban Hyundai does have a CVT for the base Elantra. The sports model does not

[@TaijiArban]

@@drewski1441 no they don't. All elantras except the sport and eco trim have a six speed auto. The sport and eco trim have the seven speed dual clutch. Also the sport and base model can be had with a manual as well. I have checked with multiple sources to confirm this including Hyundai's own website(as given by the first person that replied to you). Please do your research before sharing fake information.

[@keerthikanna9017]

Do we have rear Ac vents?

[@davidm5707]

Nope, it's cupholders now. The new Forte has vents on the higher trims. Most compacts don't.

[@ToyotaTacomaV6]

2019 elantra has rear vents

[@bboucharde]

En frente, es muy fayo!

[@Sandto33]

You know, You really don't need to touch, and rub every single part of the car, you can just point.

[@Daniel-tv9tb]

Don't like it don't watch. Go make your own video.

[@lorbrando7596]

why he say “ Hyundai “ like that 😂

[@johig4378]

To pronounce Hyundai it rhymes with Sunday (i.e. Hun-day)

[@dougrabbit8837]

A really bad old looking focus. Whoever approved this design needs to be fired!

[@tropicallover19]

doug rabbit no it isn’t

[@ToyotaTacomaV6]

I love the design and u need to get used to it that's all

[@danieln2448]

old looking foucs lmao this jackass go back in ur 06 cobalt or whatever shit you drive lmao

[@scottbrown8359]

I saw one in real life at a cross walk & vomited my lunch all over the hood, i couldn't control it. Everyone was honking their horns & yelling but as soon as i locked eyes with the front of this thing i would just continue to hurl myself over & continue to vomit on the hood of this guys car. He couldn't believe it was happening, nor could i.... so embarrassing.

[@kevinjoseph2906]

Horrible front...

[@sebastiangomez-bm9ew]

[@Yondaily]

It’s so ugly!!!
