These compact sedans and hatchback wagon reflect new sheetmetal shapes outside and cabin upgrades inside such as a new center console and revised instrument panel.
Elantra GLS is the mainstay model fashioned as a four-door sedan, but there's also a four-door GT sedan available and the sport-tuned Elantra GT five-door hatchback.
Standard gear for GLS this year ranges from air conditioning and frontal plus side-impact air bags to power operation for windows and door locks and mirrors, a tilting steering column, AM/FM stereo with cassette deck and new keyless remote entry device tied to an alarm.
Both GT models contain leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel, firmer suspension settings, four-wheel disc brakes and foglamps plus 15-inch alloy wheels with Michelin tires and a new Kenwood audio system with CD deck and MP3 player. Engine for all Elantras is from Hyundai's 2.0-liter four-cylinder, now with CVVT for 138 hp.
