The 2021 Hyundai Elantra sets itself apart in a shrinking segment with a flashy new interior and
exterior styling, a brand-new hybrid variant and a sporty “N Line” model aimed at the enthusiast
crowd. The small sedan also still scores big when it comes to overall value. Unfortunately,
Hyundai is dropping the Elantra GT hatchback for the 2021 model year.
The hybrid powertrain in the Elantra is new this year, but the other two four-cylinders are carry-
over. Hyundai improved the tech offerings and interior quality in the redesign, boasting either an
eight-inch or 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen. A wide array of safety and driver assistance
options come standard, but even more can be tacked on as options.
There are four trim levels for the sedan. Among these, Hyundai mixes in three different engines
and a few different transmissions. The entry-level SE and SEL come standard with a 2.0-liter
four-cylinder that delivers 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. The Hybrid is powered
by a 1.6-liter gasoline engine and 32-kilowatt electric motor for a total output of 139 hp and 195
lb-ft of torque. This variant gets Hyundai’s six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The
sporty N Line model will be motivated by Hyundai’s 1.6-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder
producing 201 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque paired with either a six-speed manual or seven-speed
dual-clutch automatic transmission. The N Line also gets bigger front brakes and a multi-link
rear suspension for improved handling and ride quality. Fuel economy figures are not yet
available for any version.
