An excellent vehicle, with a few minor drawbacks.
Overall, I find Hyundai to be an excellent car manufacturer. I've had nothing but good experiences with them since my grandparents got a 2012 Genesis and 2009 Santa Fe.
My previous vehicle was a 2018 Elantra, which was exactly what I wanted with the small exception of not being a hatchback sedan which was a bit of a pipe dream. When that vehicle was totaled in an accident, it was a no-brainer to stick with the brand whose vehicle was a total loss but let me walk away unharmed.
Given the used vehicle prices, I opted to buy new this time and I don't regret it.
The IVT feels a tad sluggish at times compared to your traditional automatic, and the sound system has some quirks (rear speaker sound quality namely)... but otherwise the 2022 Elantra SEL is an excellent vehicle with sleek styling.
Wireless Android Auto/Apple Carplay, great mileage, keyless ignition and entry, combined with BlueLink connectivity makes this vehicle a dream to own.
