Trim Levels
If you like options, you’ll be glad to know that the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA Hybrid comes in two trim levels: Blue or Limited. The Blue trim is the entry-level for the ELANTRA Hybrid, featuring a slightly smaller body and wheels and better fuel efficiency. The higher sticker price for the ELANTRA Hybrid Limited may be worth it if you can afford it, as it features luxurious, upgraded interior features while still providing good fuel economy.
Performance
The hybrid model of the Hyundai ELANTRA comes equipped with a 1.6-liter four-cylinder electric engine that delivers approximately 139 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. These elements give the ELANTRA Hybrid quick acceleration power from stop to start and are responsive when maintaining high speeds. The sedan can also go from zero to 60 mph in an estimated 8.7 seconds.
The hybrid’s base engine pairs with a computer-controlled six-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT), offering optimal driving performance. The DCT does more than just give you a fun and enjoyable drive; it also improves the ELANTRA Hybrid’s fuel economy. Because DCT provides power to the car’s front wheels, you get a more stable ride with smooth steering and acceleration, lowering fuel costs.
Fuel Economy
Good fuel economy is essential for a daily driver or family car because it means fewer trips to fuel up at the gas station and more money in your pocket. The value of the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA Hybrid is undeniable as it reaches an estimated 53 mpg in the city and 56 mpg on the highway. The Hybrid Limited trim should get a combined 50 mpg.
The stunning fuel efficiency of this compact car significantly outperforms most cars, achieving an average of 24.2 mpg. Regardless of your chosen trim level, with its impressive gas mileage, the ELANTRA Hybrid is a worthy contender for travel on long road trips or down scenic highways.
Exterior
You’ll feel like you’ve been transported to the future when you look at the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA Hybrid with its updated exterior lighting and sharp-looking front end. The sharp angles of the front end extend to the door panels, giving the vehicle a sleek style. The fresh look of this compact sedan pairs well with its lightweight body and new wheels with unique silver five-spoke rims. The ELANTRA Hybrid is an excellent vehicle if you’re looking for something small that’s easy to maneuver and fits into any parking space.
Interior
The interior of the 2024 Hyundai ELANTRA Hybrid is expected to match the exterior’s facelift. This compact car will boast a futuristic yet minimalist style from the wrap-around dash and center console on the driver’s side to the single light-emitting diode strip offering subtle lighting from the steering column to the passenger’s side door. Here are the other noteworthy interior specs you can expect with this new car:
Seating and Cargo Capacity
The roomy interior of this compact car should comfortably seat a small family or easily hold plenty of cargo such as groceries, suitcases, and sporting equipment. Depending on the trim level, the rear seats can split or fold for a customized cargo capacity. The ELANTRA Hybrid is expected to have 38 inches of rear legroom and 14.2 cubic feet of trunk space.
Technology and Entertainment
In addition to its spacious interior, the Hyundai ELANTRA Hybrid will feature standard responsive technology, including an 8-inch touch-screen infotainment system and wireless connectivity to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A Wi-Fi hotspot and voice recognition to control the climate are standard features that are sure to boost the convenience of this car.
Expected tech upgrades for the Limited trim level include a 10.3-inch infotainment system and a larger instrument cluster display. You can also expect remarkable tech features such as convenient phone-as-key functionality and responsive navigation. You’ll look forward to listening to your favorite music whenever you drive in the Limited with its premium audio system from Bose. As for the seating, the front seats of this trim level are heated and ventilated, meaning you can ride comfortably in any climate.
Safety
Standard safety features on previous ELANTRAs include automatic emergency braking and high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. There’s also a standard lane departure warning with a lane-keep assist and standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Hyundai will likely outfit the 2024 ELANTRA Hybrid with these safety and driver-assistance features so you can drive knowing you’ll reach your destination safely. The Limited trim is expected to have additional safety features such as adaptive cruise control and rear emergency braking.
