Other model years to consider

The 2017 Elantra is particularly appealing due to its affordability at an average price of just over $10,000 and a strong user rating of 4.5/5, making it a great choice for budget-conscious buyers. Meanwhile, the 2021 model offers a slightly higher price point but boasts an impressive user rating of 4.8/5 and a robust inventory of good deals, ensuring quality without straining finances.
Model years to approach with caution
When considering the Hyundai Elantra model years from 2010, 2011, and 2007, it is advisable to proceed with caution. These years exhibit comparatively lower user ratings, with the 2010 and 2011 models scoring just 3.4 and 3.8 out of 5 respectively. Additionally, a significant percentage of listings for these years are classified as not being good or great deals, particularly with around 70% of the offerings in both the 2010 and 2011 categories falling into this category, suggesting limited value in the current market.

Love this car! Its been nothing but reliable. Zero issues just regular maintenance and fun to drive!
The best car I’ve ever owned zero issues besides a flat tire lol and I drive city to city for work perfect commute car
Absolutely the best car I have ever owned! I bought it in 2015 as a certified pre-owned vehicle and never once did I have any mechanical issues other than just this year the pump for the windshield wiper fluid finally went out. However, my boyfriend and I were able to repair that on our own. I planned on keeping this car a good long time as I take care of my vehicles. Unfortunately I was rear-ended in October and the vehicle was totaled. Im putting my faith once again into Hyundai and buying a certified pre-owned 2020 Kona that I have researched heavily. I loved my Elantra and found it to be an excellent vehicle. I very much hope to have the same exact experience with my Kona as when I test drove a 2018 which had the same engine as the 2020 I found it extremely responsive, fantastic breaking, smooth ride even on bumpy bad roads, major safety features, very powerful, and felt just like my Elantra to drive.
Inlove with my vehicle. Car drives amazing and very comfortable.
I just lost my Hyundai 2017 in a crash. It was my second Elantra and I drove them both for 8 years. I did routine maintenance but never had any repair bills . They are great cars and that is why I am looking to buy another one.
