My little gas saver.

My GT is perfect for me, it helps me save the gas that I need when I am going on my trips. I don't ever have to use my phone when I am driving and that is my major plus because I need to stay in contact with my children. I love that my GT is fully load and the heated seats are a lifer saver. I love the decision that I made with my GT.

Great car

This is a fun little car to drive and still has plenty of room for gear. The hatchback makes it easy to load and unload. Sport mode offers the ability to keep up with traffic in the big city as well. Cons: terrible in the snow, may just need better tires than the ones that came with it. Little low on gas mileage as well but still reasonable.

I don't understand "review title", am I supposed to give it a title?

I live this car. It has major get up and go. Drives excellent when it is raining. One of the main factors in choosing this vehicle is the front passenger seat, she can make it higher to see out the windshield, my mom is very petite, 4'6",

My View

Love, love my Hyundai Elantra GT Sport. I love the fact that I don't see that many on the road when I'm driving around. I see a lot of Hyundai Elantras. I see some Hyundai Elantra GT s. I don't see very many GT Sport models.

2018 Elantra GT Sport

It's my first Hyundai purchase. Really fun little car. Its price seems to be lower than Toyota and Honda of the same class. Though, its value seem to depreciate very quickly. I'm not an expert, I may be wrong. I haven't own a hyundai long enough to judge on reliability but most hyundai owners told me that they are. We'll have to see in time.

solid fun hatchback

This car excceded my expectations in performance, handling and ride quality. Interior quality is high grade and above its competition. For the price point you cant beat it compared to the other cars in the compact segment.

The 2018 Elantra GT review

The 2018 Elantra GT is a nice vehicle. I really like the Metallic Blue paint color, the backup camera view, the gas mileage and the ease of driving. I do not like the hard and uncomfortable drivers and passengers seating. I like the heated seats, but do not like the cabin heater. It’s difficult to get a comfortable temperature setting. I also wish it was possible to obtain a Factory Service Manual to help with adjustments, updates and accessories installation.

Great Car

I checked these cars out online. When I got to the dealer I knew what I wanted and the color I wanted. I test drove it and loved it. It's fun to drive. I'm impressed with the power it has for a 1.6 cylinder. I've had alot of compliments on this car.

Paint too thint as well as body panels

I have taken my 2018 Elantra gt sport two 2 dealerships, the first one told me that yeah it seems that is too soon for the front bumper to show this many chips and that it maybe some issues with the paint but unfortunately I did not buy the car there so I need it to go with the dealer that I bought the car from, (and I would like to make a pause here, why do I need to go to my original dealership, is not all Hyundai a Hyundai no matter where was it bought Hyundai should honor the warranty no matter where the car was purchased, I don't see them sending me away anytime that I need oil change, they should tell me sorry we can do it here because you did not buy it here, any ways) The original dealership told me sorry it's a black car you should expect to see this besides all cars are going to be like this i should not pretend not to have this kind of issues, they almost said is my own dam fault go cry some where else. So yeah I am not very happy like I said to the service manager from this place Dan this is not my first new car and this have never happened, not with Nissan Subarus VW none of them. Any ways let's say that I am not 100 per cent happy with this purchase quality or dealers.

Excellent Deal

Was exactly what we were looking for. Great service from sales and finance. Very professional staff. This the second car we purchased from Hyundai dealership in Alexandria, VA. Will most likely purchase another Hyundai in the future.

Elantra

I test drove a few other models but I originally liked the car I purchased and after driving the other cars, decided I liked the Elantra best. Traded in a Lancet that was 4 wheel drive but wanted a hatchback for easy access to place items.

Anemia is sad

The car I owned before the 18 Elantra was an 05 Tucson with a 2.8 litre 6 cylinder--and I'd still have it if a texting kid hadn't murdered her. That car, despite being an SUV, cornered like it was on rails and would FLY. Very handy for interstate driving when you dont want an 18 wheeler to crush you, lol. Hyundai's new line-up comprises vehicles that are super reliable, but that take the "fun" out of "fun"ctional. I tested all of the 18's, except Sonata (because I have a brain), and they were found lacking. H.P. isn't THAT different from years past, but they just do not handle or go like the 4 others I've owned over the years. I'm so sad?.

GT is awesome

My Elantra GT is awesome. A reapnosive 2.0 with sport mode makes it a fast compact. Comfortable and roomy. Love it!!! Great styling, the shifting in sport mod is racer and fun. Comfortable seats for with tons of features.

AN Unexpected "Gem"

This little hatchback is a real gem. I have now put 5600 miles on it over several months and it is always a pleasure to use it wherever and whenever I go on the road. I turned to this model after trading in a Nissan Juke which was o.k. but the Juke didn't have the "oomph" of this engine and it seemed a little clumsier. Everything is still working well on the Elantra "sport" and my only "nit" about it is that Hyundai might have spent a little more on sound-deadening materials for it since road noise can be annoying. I would be willing to spend a little extra to get this. But I am convinced there is no better car of this type on the market today. I forgot to mention that it holds as much cargo as my old Jeep Cherokee--- maybe even more. And the warranty is most excellent!

Riding

The vehicle is very comfortable to ride in and gets great gas mileage. Large enough inside to fit both our large dogs in comfortably. Really like dash features and leg room. Fits four adults, have not tried five as yet but assume would do well on short trips. Holds great on wet roads .

A Refined, Peppy Car That I Enjoy Driving So Far...with A Few Suggested Improvements

I've only had the car since May 2018 but I've found that it has added some welcome refinements over my 2004 Hyundai Elantra GT. It has more power, better braking, and sportier handling which make it fun to drive. Fuel economy seems to be better than EPA estimates. From a design standpoint, the low exposed cheap plastic grill is easily damaged because their is no protective bumper; Hyundai has to replace that with a more resilient hard rubber grill -- maybe with a sensor that beeps when SUVs with trailer hitches back into it. I was also disappointed that it didn't have a CD player and some of the safety features that are standard on the comparable Corolla hatchback. Not crazy about the low profile tires, but they lower the center of gravity and improve cornering so they may be a useful trade-off.

Bad little pocket rocket

I went to initially buy the Sonata but saw, test drove and bought the Elantra gt sport. The turbo spools up nicely and it makes it easy to get in and out of rush hour traffic. Great for short trips and even moderate ones.
