Hyundai Elantra Generations
For each major redesign, a vehicle is said to begin a new "generation."
The current generation Elantra can seat up to five and has very accommodating trunk space. Three trim levels are offered: Blue, GLS, and SE. All use a 138-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. A five-speed manual transmission is standard issue on the Blue trim, while a four-speed automatic is standard on the GLS and SE trim. Safety features on all Elantra models include four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes with electronic brake-force distribution, frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side curtain airbags, and active front head restraints.
The following model years make up the most recent Hyundai Elantra generations:
2007 - 2010 Hyundai Elantra
Major changes included: Now in its fourth generation, the Elantra is offered in GLS and SE trims, both offered with a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine. The higher-end SE trim distinguishes itself from the GLS with standard AC, Electronic Stability Control, 16-inch alloy wheels, and optional heated leather seats. It differs from previous generations by its crisper handling and refreshing look. | |
