My parents just bought one of these and they love it. Great ride and value, not just in terms of purchase, but maintenance. Just take a VW Golf in for service... This is their 3rd Hyundai. All three easily went 8-9 years with basic maintenance. I had numerous VWs and one Ford, they need a lot more than basic maintenance to keep running after 3-4 years. I'm impressed with their quality, fit/finish and technology. After driving Mercedes for 16 years, I bought a 2013 Genesis. None of the European car companies can touch Hyundai in this price class. New Genesis vs 4 year old E-class? After watching my MBs fall apart after 4-5 years, it was a no brainer.

It’s 2023 now, ours’ bought new 2013 Elantra GT (identical to the one shown, right down to the huge sunroof) has held up beautifully. Ours is only driven in the summer up north and placed in unheated storage though the winter as we head south. We have had no problems, just general maintenance. We consider this car to have been an excellent choice.

The 2014 Hyundai Elantra GT is America's best designed and most reliable small sedan of 2014. Powered by new cutting-edge Hyundai auto technology, this is Korean manufacturing specialty at its best. Also, Hyundai cars sold in the USA are made in the USA. If you want to support the US economy, buying Hyundai cars is a good decision. Hyundai technology is 100% Korean technology so you can expect the newest and most advanced auto technology. FORZA HYUNDAI MOTORS!

That ownership scale still makes no sense. I don't want to know how long I would keep the car if I bought it, I want to know whether I would want to buy the car in the first place. Or to put it this way: If a car gets 1/5 stars, then I wouldn't buy it, so it would never be comparable to, say, a 3-12 months ownership scale rating. Furthermore, if I buy a compact entry-level car, that may be because I don't have a lot of money, which means I would most likely own the car a lot longer.Otherwise gj!

The 2014 model year adds the 178 HP engine to the mix. I do not agree that it is a good looking car. It actually looks dated compared to the redesigned Mazda 3 or 2014 KIA Forte5.
@TheCobruhAlienat0r10 жыл бұрын
Mazda 3 would be the best choice safety wise. The Kia Forte scored poorly on the small overlap test, it scored better on the 2013 model. The Elantra comes in second with an 'acceptable' rating and then Mazda with a good rating all the way around.
@freddykrueger550310 жыл бұрын
Exterior styling is a matter of personal opinion. But for the interior... I sat in the 2014 Mazda 3 GS model (one level up from GX). The seats felt like cheap cloth and I didn't much care for the center knob stuff which to me is just a gimmick. The fit & finish (seats and other stuff) in the Elantra GT (SE) by comparison is well put together and feels more upscale.

Apparently we at least agree that he said. The Elantra came in after the civic. Focus. And Mazda 3. . Here a fact. HYUNDAI had been trying to copy honda for years. Honda is better and has a higher resale value. So why not buy a honda. Hyundai had a 100,000 mile warranty power train only. But with a Honda you dont need it. Also both dealers told us you need to buy a extended warranty for the electrical problems Hyundai has. .
