If we look back in the history, the ‘Neo Fluidic’ Elantra was introduced in 2012 with the lots of curves and styling design elements. As the time elapsed, the styling curves were replaced with more catchy and crispy lines, and the Elantra became more alluring. And that’s what we called the real Evolution of the model throughout the generations, the sixth generation Hyundai Elantra.
The styling features of the car include the narrow headlamps, six-point LED foglamps, coupe-shaped sloping roofline, D-shaped LED taillamps, 16-inch alloy wheels.

From the inside, the new Elantra offers quite a pleasant interior design ideology and all black theme with wooden accents. Fully loaded with technology-wise features like 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, dual-zone climate control, electrically operable seats, leather upholstery and the hands-free boot open.
What’s under the hood?
Beneath the front end, this latest generation Hyundai Elantra launched with two engine options, 2.0-litre Petrol and 1.6-litre Diesel. The brand new 2.0-litre, naturally aspirated, four-cylinder petrol engine that is tuned to produce the maximum power of 147 PS at 6200 rpm along with 180 Nm of peak torque at 4500 rpm.
For diesel motor, the same 1.6-litre CRDi engine from the previous generation takes place to perform the duties which is capable of generating 130 Bhp of power. In terms of transmission, both engines are offered with a choice of 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic unit.
