Hood and reliable to drive.

I like my Elantra, it has given me wonderful service for the almost 13 years that I have had it. It has been reliable without any problems. If you take care of your ar, which I have done, it takes care of you.

Enjoyable car .

It handles well, has not had any problems, has good mileage and cargo space. Negatives would be it’s not designed for larger or tall people, and it’s too low to the ground. Easy to hit the body on curbs, and harder to get in and out of than a higher car is. Easy and enjoyable to drive.

Very reliable compact car

The Elantra is a very reliable compact car, it’s great on gas and looks very aerodynamic. I use my 2009 Hyundai Elantra to drive to work and do groceries as well as run errands. The car is compact but comfortable, it is front wheel drive so you feel a nice amount of torque when you press the pedal and the vehicle is very responsive with both the breaks and gas. The trunk space is very nice for a compact car.

2009 Hyundai touring

Purchased the 2009 Hyundai Elantra touring new. The vehicle runs well low maintenance cost and has a lot of room when you fold down the rear seats. The car had traveled I 95 from Maine to Florida and everywhere in between. Great for small family

Quality of Hyundai Elantra

I bought this car used from a Toyota dealership in October 2018 with 151,000 miles, the owner left his vehicle registration in the vehicle and it was deal current, so I call him to let him know that he still had time on the tags. We met and I was able to speak with him about the car’s mileage which was highway mileage. The car was full of dog hair, so I had it detailed inside and out. Then I took it to Todd Archer Hyundai to have the car evaluated to see what needed to be done to make it road worthy for the highway. We did very little to bring it to that condition and the rest is history.

Elantra

Nice compact car. Reliable and good on gas. I bought this car used two years ago and although it is a 2009, it performs very well and is very durable. It was definitely a great deal and although I was looking for a different type of vehicle, I have no regrets of this purchase.

My friend Hyundai

I own my Elantra 2009 for almost 3 years by now, drove about additional 30000 miles on it with reaching overall respectful 170000 plus milleage. During this time I have never had any issue with this car. It is extremely reliable, always starts with a half turn of the key, all mechanisms work perfectly well, it has a good driveability, very maneuverable, easy to drive, it does not take much space on the road and is great for parking, though is quite spacious inside and has a very good trunk. Its fuel consumption is commendable, I drive 300 miles at least until the fuel tank signal lamp starts to blink, after that I can go additional 50 miles I guess. I use it for business trips and leisure, both short and long runs, once it performed great making a 4-days journey from Texas to New Jersey, fully loaded. I wondered how much stuff it could take onboard given it's modest external dimensions. It looks nice also, its design is even more appealing to me after some time I own it. Paint still looks great, no corrosin anywhere, and, despite realtively solid age, it still looks appropriate among any vehicles it can happen near to be. In conclusion, I recommend this particular model and the brand Hyundai to anyone who likes cars and want to have best of those - you will find all you want and need and even more! I am happy that I have such a good friend as my Hyundai Elantra.

2009 Elantra

This is the BEST car that I have EVER owned!!! It has been very reliable. The only time that it's been in shop was for scheduled maintenance or a minor repair. Would definitely consider buying a Hyundai, again!

I don't hate it but I don't love it either

It was the only vehicle we ever bought new. And it has served a good 11 years so far, however it is also a very frustrating vehicle. When things do break it is often expensive to fix. Case in point, the transmission in the windshield wipers went out. All that means for me is that my windshield wipers no longer remember where to go for start position. They stay upright on my windshield. But they still work. The part alone is $300. $300 just to make your windshield wipers lay down correctly.

The best car I have ever owned

I have owned a Mazda GLC, a Honda Civic, a Toyota Corolla, and the 2009 Hyundai Elantra. The Elantra is by far the most reliable car I have ever owned in all my years of owning cars. After 150,000 - I am convince that my 2009 Hyundai Elantra is the best car I have ever owned.

Lasts like a subaru

My Elantra is 11 years old with over 100,000 miles. Still gets great gas mileage, runs beautifully and have had no surprises. It is an excellent value for the price. I would purchase another one, but mine is still going strong.. Love my Elantra!

2009 Hyundai review

I have been driving this same car since 2010 and I have been well pleased with its running ability. The only criticism I have is that I really don't like the beige upholstery. It gets dirty too fast. I put a towel in my seat to protect it while I am driving.

A perfect 10 - and better than Corolla, Mazda 3, or Civic

I own a 2009 Hyundai Elantra with 145,000 miles. This car is the most reliable auto I have ever owned. I have had no major issues since I purchased it new in 2009. My next car will be another Elantra. If you follow the maintenance - the car will go 300,000 miles.

a happy relationship

I am comfortable driving my Elantra both on short local trips and the long distance ones. It's economic on fuel, has excellent storage space. Is well behaved and easy to drive under adverse weather conditions. Have had no problems.

I am Happy

I have owned many different cars in my 88 years, but none can compare with my 10 yr old Elantra. It has been trouble free with the exception of some A/C problems 2 years ago. I am hoping my car lasts as long as I do!!!!! Thank you

Elantra Touring is a great car

I've loved my car since I bought it new in 2009. I'd purchase another one when it's time. The moment I saw it (bright red) I was sold. I like that I can see out the back easily since it doesn't have a regular trunk.
