Bullz-Eye recently got behind the wheel of the 2011 Hyundai Elantra for a test drive. The brand has undergone some serious redesigns in the past couple years, and the new Elantra is a testament to that overhaul. The car features what Hyundai calls Fluidic Sculpture, a concept whose inspiration is pretty obvious when looking at the outside of the car. The car delivers a lot more than anyone could expect from such a modest sticker price.
Here’s an excerpt from the review:
The interior of the Elantra was very impressive and comfortable. I took it on a two-hour trip on freeway and it had the comfort level you would expect from a mid-sized sedan. The interior has the bold design we’ve seen in other Hyundai models with cool curves in place of square edges, but the styling is a little more understated and elegant than what we found in the Sonata, particularly on the center-dash, which for me was more appealing.
The controls we also very easy to use and were rather intuitive. The model I tested had the premium package, so for an extra $2,000 it included a navigation system with a high-resolution 7” touch screen display, a rearview camera, a premium audio system with an external amp, automatic headlights, and proximity key entry with push-button start. It also included carpeted floor mats and an iPod cable, bringing the total price to $22,110, and incredible value for the overall package.
