Elantra

The six speed manual or automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC has been paired with a refined 1.8L, ULEV / PZEV 4-cylinder motor to distribute 7% better horsepower (148 hp @ 6500 rpm) with lower emissions than its forerunner. Whether you're zipping up Interstate 5 to Western Washington University in Bellingham, cruising up Highway 9 between Smokey Point and Arlington, or lost somewhere on a road called Minkler, trying to read your cousin's scribbled napkin map to the barbecue you're late for in the outskirts of a burg called Hamilton, the Elantra's fuel economy will keep you smiling all the way. The 2011 Elantra sports a style that sheds the tradition of its bulky competitors. Designed in California, the Elantra combines a sloping roofline and a larger wheelbase to give it a sporty, low profile elegance. The Elantra boasts more interior space than the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Nissan Maxima. It features front and rear heated seats, leather seating surfaces and a 360-Watt audio system. The Elantra features six airbags, 4-wheel ABS brakes, and an intelligent Vehicle Stability Management system. The Limited model includes a power sunroof, automatic headlights, remote keyless entry, Bluetooth connectivity, iPod interfaces, leather seats (heated both front and back!), and 17-inch alloy wheels.

Hyundai today introduced another exciting model, its all-new 2011 Elantra at the Los Angeles Auto Show. This marks the world debut of the latest version of the popular compact sedan. The 2011 Elantra encompasses Hyundai's latest ambitions including “Fluidic Sculpture” design, advanced safety and fuel efficiency. In the very competitive compact car segment the Elantra continues to be on a fast four year lifecycle.

Under the hood, the Elantra is powered by an all-new 1.8-liter Nu four-cylinder engine with 148 horsepower and 131 lb-ft of torque (145 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque for Elantra PZEV). The Nu engine was developed to replace the 2.0-liter Beta engine from the previous generation Elantra. The Nu is smaller in size, weighs 74 pounds less and helps achieve an 18-percent improvement in highway fuel economy, when compared with its predecessor. Thanks to advanced clean engine technology, most Elantras sold in California, Oregon and several Northeast states are certified as Partial Zero Emission Vehicles (PZEV) by the EPA. The PZEV Elantra is as clean as many hybrid electric vehicles. The PZEV Elantra helps Hyundai meet its environmental commitments. Outside of these “green” states, the Elantra is available as an Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (ULEV).
