About the 2024 Hyundai Elantra
7th generation Elantra (2021-2026), mid-cycle refresh year.
The Elantra is Hyundai’s style-forward compact sedan for shoppers who want a small car that looks bolder and feels more modern than the class norm. Hyundai positions it as an easy daily driver with strong feature value, roomy seating for the segment, and a wide personality spread: basic commuter trims, high-efficiency hybrid trims, and the quicker N Line. Its biggest strengths are standout design, lots of tech for the size, and a lineup that covers value, efficiency, and sportier driving in one model family.
The 2024 Elantra lineup ranges from the straightforward SE and screen-focused SEL to two hybrids and the more upscale Limited models. The Blue HEV emphasizes fuel economy, while the N Line adds a 201-hp turbo engine and sport seats; Limited models bring features such as premium audio, digital key access, and added camera technology.
