The 2026 Hyundai Elantra is the SUV for those who value style and features over raw excitement.
The 2026 Hyundai Elantra aims to inject a dose of style into the compact SUV segment with its edgy exterior and feature-rich cabin. While its 2.0L 4-cylinder engine delivers a modest 147 hp, it’s clear that the Elantra is more about comfort and tech than corner-carving thrills. Inside, the cabin stands out with its generous list of features, making you feel like you’re getting more than what you paid for. We were surprised by how composed it felt on daily commutes, but the engine lacks zest when you really push it. This is the SUV for someone who appreciates a well-equipped ride that prioritizes efficiency and safety over sportiness.
