2023 Hyundai Elantra Review | Hybrid and N Models Explained
The 2023 Hyundai Elantra is one of the best values on the market. With an astonishingly low price point, high-end safety features, an intuitive design, and creature comfort amenities, the small sedan is the perfect affordable and stylish commuter car.
With an ever-evolving line-up, Hyundai is adapting seamlessly to an electric vehicle world. It’s hard to beat the value and efficiency of the 2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid Blue. In fact, value packaging ensures that every trim earns its price tag.
This model year Hyundai continues to balance comfortable amenities with practicality in mind. The sheer variety of trim levels address many different lifestyles and budgets. Keep scrolling to find out more.
Stylish From The Outside-In
In recent years, the Hyundai Elantra has gotten a facelift. With an original and sharp design, the Elantra has a very different look than other sedans in its class. Confident, and unlike the rest, the 2023 Hyundai base model has 17-inch alloy wheels and a dark grille, giving it a bold demeanor.
Elantra N-Line sedans stand apart, and it’s not just because of their flashy 19-inch alloy wheels. It’s the aerodynamic grille design and a dynamic rear wing. A sporty interior reflects the N-Line’s exterior design cues.
Although the Elantra is considered a compact car, the cabin is quite spacious compared to many rivals. Its sharp and practical design makes it the perfect commuter car.
Many potential shoppers are shocked when they discover the 38 inches of legroom in the Hyundai’s back seat. To put this into perspective, many rival sedans have 33 inches of legroom, with 35 inches considered very good.
The Elantra’s trunk space adds to the sedan’s value. This rear cargo area measures 14.2 cubic feet, which is above average in the compact sedan class. Not to mention, the second-row seats can fold flat! Perfect for when you need more storage.
Finally, on the dashboard, drivers will not be disappointed. The infotainment system has an 8-inch touchscreen for the Elantra base model, perfect for navigation and music. You can easily stream Apple Maps or Google Maps via wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. This puts where you need to go right on the screen and allows for verbal turn-by-turn directions. Of course, the Elantra has two USB charging ports.
Elantra Safety Awards and Driver Assistance Systems
If you are concerned about safety, you have nothing to worry about with the Hyundai Elantra. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the 2023 Elantra is a Top Safety Pick. If that’s not enough to reassure you, the small sedan earned all five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
2023 Elantras have a broad array of functions that respond to an emergency auto brake. This includes a forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, junction-turning detection, and a cyclist watch. Lane keeping assist and blind spot monitoring help the car stay out of trouble.
One of our favorite features is Smart Cruise Control, which has a stop-and-go capability for busy traffic – the perfect commuter car! You can check out Smart Cruise Control at a test drive. Click here to schedule time behind the wheel at our Avondale Hyundai dealership.
Operating Costs
Based on research by the EPA, there is evidence that an inexpensive car will have low operating costs, but only if it has good fuel economy. And this applies to the Elantra, widely known as a fuel-efficient sedan.
The base engine earns 37 miles per gallon combined, which is considered great gas mileage. For the rest of the lineup, the combined gas mileage is 34 mpg by EPA estimates. A stop-start feature allows the driver to save on fuel emissions at red lights and other long idles. Regardless of the trim level that you choose to drive, you are saving on gas money.
Furthermore, this affordable compact car has a much longer warranty package than 99 percent of its rivals. You don’t pay extra to enjoy limited coverage up to five years and powertrain coverage up to 10 years.
Perfect For Parents
For new parents looking for an affordable ride, you’re in luck. The Hyundai Elantra has a rear occupant alert and safe exit warning, which is now a standard feature on all models. The occupant alert recognizes when the rear doors were opened at the beginning of a trip and gives a reminder to the driver to check the backseat when leaving.
Next, the Elantra’s exit warning keeps passengers from stepping out into traffic, aiming to help parents keep their kids out of danger. Each back-row seat comes with standard LATCH attachments which hold car seats tightly in place. The 2023 model year has a larger back row, making it easier than ever to get kids in their car seats or stash groceries in a hurry.
Several features not yet available on rivals are here, all with the Elantra’s more affordable price tag. The best feature is the Digital Key, an amenity that is usually offered only on luxury cars. This digital key allows drivers to access their Elantra with only a smartphone app.
Parking Aids
There was a time when having a rearview camera was a luxury, but now, you’ll find one on every Elantra! With rear traffic alert, a crisp backup camera, and automatic braking, this daily driver is perfect for parking in tight spaces or simply backing out of a driveway.
All these features make parking safer, helping the Elantra maintain its value by easily avoiding the scrapes and dings that can happen in a parking lot.
Elantra’s Gas-Powered Trim Levels Explained
Value is packed into the base trim level of the 2023 Elantra, known as the SE. This trim package is so amenity-packed that many don’t feel the need to step up to another trim. Significantly, it has cutting-edge safety features and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Plus drivers enjoy greater gas mileage than other Elantra models with 33 miles per gallon in the city and 42 miles per gallon on the highway.
The next trim level is the Elantra SEL. This trim doesn’t cost much more than the base model, but it piles on favorite standards such as an upgraded infotainment system, hands-free smart trunk release, and a proximity key with push button start.
With standard Smart Cruise Control, the Elantra Limited is the perfect commuter car with a touch of luxury. This trim focuses on interior design and driver comfort. Amenities include a Bose stereo and leather-trimmed seats.
Before we explore the Elantra N Line, let’s discover the new SEL Convenience package. The latest addition for 2023, this Elantra package includes a larger navigation touchscreen. Additional tech features include a wireless charger and a second-row USB port. Commuting drivers will appreciate the Elantra’s adaptive cruise control and an expanded forward collision-avoidance system.
The Elantra N-Line
Finally, the 2023 Hyundai Elantra N Line is the highest trim level for the gas-powered Elantra. This model is so swift and so sporty that it easily rivals the Honda Civic SI.
Hyundai’s 276 horsepower engine goes above and beyond in this small sedan. Instead of automatic transmissions like the other Elantras, this one has a 6-speed manual transmission. A low center of gravity adds to the car’s fun handling.
Handsome cloth-and-leatherette upholstery covers sport bucket seating. Behind the steering wheel, drivers enjoy a 10.25-inch digital cluster in place of gauges. An equivalent 10.25-inch touchscreen provides navigation and music. Finally, a high-tech N-specific steering wheel and shifter make this car sporty and one-of-a-kind.
Elantra Hybrid Blue and Limited Trim Levels
For those interested in hybrid-electric vehicles, Hyundai has you covered. This 2023 hybrid model has the Blue trim level as its introductory package. The Elantra Blue trim has all the amenities needed for modern living, and it has great gas mileage at 54 miles per gallon. With projector headlights, a hands-free smart trunk release, and blind spot collision avoidance, the Elantra Blue is the perfect starter hybrid car.
The highest trim level for a 2023 Elantra Hybrid is the Limited. This sedan adds ventilated front seats, a navigation touchscreen, and handsome leather upholstery. Drivers will appreciate Junction-Turning Detection, rear-park assist, adaptive cruise control, and Highway Drive Assist.
If you prefer the standard Hyundai Elantra Limited, you’ll enjoy leather seats, a sunroof, and an 8-speaker Bose system. The exterior is upgraded with rear parking sensors and LED headlights. Drivers enjoy the benefits of semi-automated Highway Driving Assist. This trim definitely has the ventilated front seats we mentioned before – perfect for the Phoenix AZ heat.
