2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid front-quarter view

The 2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid is a sensible, economical compact sedan wrapped in a bold, head-turning design. The sharp Elantra Hybrid was introduced for the 2021 model year, and it carries over into 2023 largely unchanged. The Elantra Hybrid features a fuel-efficient powertrain, as well as five-passenger seating and a trunk that provides up to 14.2 cubic feet of cargo space.

The 2023 Elantra Hybrid is offered in two flavors: Blue and Limited. The Blue puts a heightened emphasis on efficiency, but it’s still incredibly well-equipped. Standard features include 16-inch alloy wheels, a hands-free smart-release trunk, remote keyless entry, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, HD radio, and two USB ports. It also has an intuitive 8-inch touchscreen that supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The Limited trim adds a bit more in the comfort department. It features 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, a split-fold rear bench, wireless device charging, a power sunroof, and a fully digital instrument panel. The infotainment screen is replaced with a larger 10.25-inch screen, but you lose the wireless capability for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Limited also comes with Hyundai Digital Key, an app that lets you do things like lock or unlock and start the vehicle from your phone, and even allows you to give family members access to your car. You can set permissions to determine whether individuals can operate or just enter the vehicle.

The Hyundai Elantra Hybrid is powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine combined with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery. This setup makes a combined 139 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed to the front wheels through a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Blue is the most efficient version. It returns fuel economy of 53 mpg city, 56 highway, and 54 combined. The Limited returns 49 mpg city, 52 highway, and 50 combined.

Hyundai loads up the Elantra Hybrid with a host of driver-assistance features, including forward and reverse automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. The Elantra Hybrid also comes with a feature called Safe Exit Warning. It uses sensors to determine if there is an approaching vehicle when you are parked and will warn the occupant before stepping out. Available driver-assistance features include cyclist detection, intersection cross-path detection, rear parking sensors, and adaptive cruise control.

Base MSRP for the 2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid is $24,400 for the Blue trim. The Limited starts at $29,000. The Elantra’s hybrid powertrain components are backed by a 10-year/100,000-mile warranty.
