- 😵THAT'S A BASE MODEL??!?
I had no choice but to wear the mask. It was company policy to wear a mask inside of vehicles that clients could test drive. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
finally a youtuber who review a base model xD
Thank you!
Technically, the base model is a manual transmission... But for most people, this is the base model, as it's the lowest priced automatic.
true! I’ve been looking for a standard spec Elantra videos..
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING THE BASE. THIS IS WHAT I ALWAYS LOOK FOR!
My pleasure!
@@edsgarage001 try showing the 2022 civic base in detail video. If you're not just Hyundai focused. Thanks for the help!!
@@dabbleshells542 not sure I'll get the opportunity... But will if I can.
Never thought I’d get a Hyundai but I’m going to pick one of these up in a few years for sure as long as they keep the manual
Love it! This is your best revue yet! Fantastic job Edward!
Thanks man!
I’ve been watching review after review of the 2021 Elantra and they’re all the same except yours. I love your style of reviews. Whatever you’re doing, keep it up. Also thanks for reviewing the base model!
Cool! Thx for the comment!
Thanks for showing the base model! Everyone else is reviewing and showing the Limited and N line which have features I really don´t like like leather uphostery and a moonroof.
No problem!
I'm Canada, there's a trim level above this called the Preferred trim. More features, but no leather, no sunroof.
Super appreciate you covering a base model ... that’s a much better benchmark for comparing the makes/ models. 👍🏼
My pleasure!
just bought this car, your walkthrough was so helpful!! thank you!!!
Update ? You still like it ? Is it worth it ?
Finally someone showing the base model thank you!
My pleasure!
I always try to get around to doing base models.
Elentra is best car for me. Enjoyed your video.
My 19 year old son is looking at getting one of these as his first new car. Just sent me this video. Thanks for doing the base model.
Glad i could help! 😊
Thank you for reviewing the base model.
I have the base trim and I think they giving a lot for a base trim.
They sure do!
Thx for the comment!
Nice base model with decent safety features !!! But my mouth is watering with N-line !!
I'm looking forward for my elantra. It's going to arrive on this week. Thanks for reviewing
Congrats!
@@edsgarage001 thanks a lot
Great review Ed!
Thanks!
I love the presentation of the hyundai elantra base essential i was wondering do you know when the 2024 hyundai elantra face-lift is going to be available in Canada and if you have a 2024 hyundai elantra face-lift will you compare the 2024 elantra to 2021 to 2023 elantra does the 2023 hyundai elantra does a manual transmission
Thanks for the comment,
We're expecting the 24 to arrive in September. No manual transmissions anymore though, except possibly in the Elantra N.
Yes I'll definitely make a comparison video
Thanks I bought mine in Toronto after watching your review cyber grey essential ivt 2022, I love it. Thanks for your help
Glad I could help!. Congrats!
@JEAN BRITO how much was the price out the door if you dont mind sharing, I am getting the exact one too.
@@garcas89 $24778 on the road, taxes in, with premium all weather floor mats, tinted windows and wheel locks. Let me know what you paid.
Great review super informative 👌🏽
Thank you!
Thank you for posting this!
Thank you for commenting!
thank you for reviewing base model of new generation Elantra, still hoping for someone to review Canada-exclusive manual transmission Essential trim of same car...
Aside from these things, it's basically the same:
Smartstream Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) with Drive Mode Select
Engine idle stop & go
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection
Lane Keeping Assist
Lane Following Assist
High Beam Assist
Driver Attention Warning
Safe Exit Warning
@@edsgarage001 yes I hope you do a review of the essential manual transmission model. In the usa we cant get that at all.
@@horseathalt7308 as soon as we get one, I'll do it
@@edsgarage001 When you stopped, the engine stop and go didn't seem to kick in.. Is it available? Also, the preferred includes the Smartstream package, will it also have stop-and-go?
@@jamies5503 The stop and go system doesn't always shut the engine off. There's a few variables that require it to stay on. For example, actively heating our cooling the cabin.
This trim level is actually the only one to have the stop and go system (aside from the hybrids if course)
But they all have the smart steam engine
Thanks Ed for this review of this 2022 Hyundai Elantra Essential model, (Canadian spec)!...Not sure what the US equivalent would be, or even if their is a comparable model. But I'll check Hyundai's US website. Terrific car Ed. Big fan of Hyundai so I am already a sold & loyal owner. I like this New gen' Elantra a lot, it's exterior styling & the interior alot, especially the front instrument panel layout, & cool center stack design. The only issue I would have with this vehicle, is the fact that I never buy BASE MODEL cars/SUV's! I need more bells n whistles than what this base model offers, but it's still a terrific car, with great build quality, features, the best warranty there is, & because it's a Hyundai, it has great value!...Thanks for another comprehensive review!
Thx for the comprehensive comment!!
Edward
@@edsgarage001 Anytime!
I see the featured model has the column-mounted key ignition system instead of the push button start. Would the latter be optional or just not in this level? Also, do I understand it's ditto on just plain cruise control vs. the adaptive kind or whatever it's called by Hyundai? I apologize if I missed your mention already as I'm hard of hearing. Thank you.
Hi there,
Thanks for the comments.
Yes push button start and adaptive cruise are features on higher trim levels.
Hyundai's are not customizable, each trim level is carbon copied. So if you only wanted push button start, you'd have to go up a level.
I love it's! I just purched the Sel a week ago.
The connivence package or jus the sel? If so how do you like it ?
Sel! I am enjoying it
@@annjackson6737 same i have the sel and i loveeeeeeee it such a smooth ride !
Hey Friend,
Please just the basic model have this option to Engine idle stop and go*? I didn’t see this option in another models for example preferred?
Thank you.
That's correct, for some reason this level is the ONLY trim level that has stop and go
Man the SEL model is so much better but I’m not mad at this one at all
hello, do you know what trims has the ambient lighting feature on the vents? Thanks!
Only the very top trim.
Calligraphy in Canada
Limited in the USA
Ed’s, can you confirm about the head lights please. Are they halogen or LED ?
In all but the N-line and Ultimate with tech package, they are just halogen with a projection lense (at least in Canada)
The N-line and Ultimate w/tech both have led headlights high and low beams. (In Canada)
tks for de showing the base version
Thx for the comment!
Is it worth spending ed? Im confused now in base model and in sun tech model
If you can afford I higher trim, do it!
This video is kinda long time ago, but can you confirm if we can fold the rear seat? I cannot find this into from the feature on the website so
Oh yeah, definitely. It's not a 60/40 split, but it does indeed fold down.
Я видел новую элантру 2021 г но у нее другой дизайн, это для какой страны изготовлена?
Это новая переработанная модель. Среди других стран, это, конечно, для южнокорейского рынка, североамериканского рынка и европейского рынка
Does it have wireless charging for newer phones? the base elantra 2021
No, not in the base trim.
I'm actually not sure exactly what trim it starts in yet, but likely only the top trim or top two trims
Even the base model is decently equipped. The Ultimate model seems frivilous by comparison.
Thanks man !
Thanks for showing it. I am looking forward the 2022 base elantra for a short lease but hesitating between manual or IVT. I'm not that sure about those IVT transmission. The Manual is also a bit cheaper but its fuel consumption is around 9L/100km and 6.3 for city driving against 7.6 and 5.7 for the IVT. Is the gap really so high ?
The IVT transmissions have honestly been great.
It's the CVT in the Nissans you need to worry about.
Thx for the comment!
@@edsgarage001 Got it. I think I'll get the manual, I don't think that the fuel difference is significant
@@stephaneeleazar489 you do lose a few other features as well though... So keep that in mind.
@@edsgarage001 Yeah I've seen it in one of your review, you did a great job. I'll let you know my final choice haha
@@stephaneeleazar489 awesome, thanks for the support!
Is this the SE? Or the SEL? You said the base model but I didn’t think the base model (SE) had heated seats. I don’t know what you consider the base model where you are from
I'm in Canada, our trim levels are different. This is called the Essential
What is the difference between this and the sel exteriors. Do they have the same body just different wheels?
Basically, yes.
But I'm in Canada, here they're called the essential and preferred,
But in the USA, this would be the SE
Question does thus have blind spot monitoring for base model??
No, you need to be in at least the Preferred trim for the blind spot monitor.
Do you think this car can be better than corolla
Or in a different way what is the strong points in this car compared to corolla
Corolla is known around the world to be reliable... But this car blows it away in everything else, and I'm sure it'll be reliable too ☺️
The Elantra won north America car of the year
It's quieter, roomier, more technologically advanced, has better warranty, more structural adhesive, more high strength steel used, better materials etc etc
Is there a manual version of this in the US?
No, it doesn't look like it
Great job
Thanks!
Ive been watching the top models and realized the base model is just as good, sure its missing fun features..but nothing i wont miss
They're a great value for sure!
i cant pick between the elantra 2022 base, ultimate or the new N that's coming out. by the way since you said you work for Hyundai do you know the price of the new elantra N. I'm from canada ontario.
Hi!
Thx for the comment!
Unfortunately I don't know the price yet, but based on the VELOSTER N price, I would guess about $41,000 for the DCT, and maybe $39,000 for the manual. ( If we get both variants)
@@edsgarage001 Thank you for replying. From the base, preferred, ultimate which model would you say is worth it. This will be my first car. The main thing I like is the price of the base but I like how the ultimate nav screen size is 10 and has a digital speedometer
@@likeabaws9500 right now, it's almost a "take what you can get" scenario lol. There's little to no stock at most dealerships right now unfortunately.
Personally I would opt for the Ultimate, as I prefer leather interiors. But if you're not partial to leather, the Preferred sun and tech is a great choice.
If you can wait, then I'd ultimately recommend either of the hybrids.
Great video
Thx!
Does it have adaptive cruise control?
No, not in the base model
It's Amazon grey
Does it have a trunk button on the outside?
No 😕. That starts in the trim level one up from this.
But it does have the button on the key fob.
Could we request you also do a video on the Essential manual please. Thanks
Noted....
I'll try to get it done within a week
@@edsgarage001 Thank you!

Thank You for making a "BASE" model video for the normal people. Let's be honest here: if you're shopping for any Kia/Hyundai, then you don't have the $ for too Limited model, otherwise you would be shopping between Toyota vs Honda. So yes, please make more Base model video comparison. How does Elantra SE compare against Nissan Sentra SV?
I'd take the Elantra any day... It also just won north American car of the year, so I'm not alone in that opinion 🙂.
Mind you, I may be a little biased as I work for a Hyundai dealer lol. BUT our Auto group has a Nissan store as well, and even some of the staff there agree the Elantra is better 😁
Want to see the Hyundai Creat 2021 base model.
Sorry, they don't sell those in Canada
Hi Ed! Does the Essential manual tranny come with a cruise control? If not, can the service department install a cruise control kit for it? Thanks
Yep, it's got cruise control. At least, in Canada it does.
@@edsgarage001 Thanks!
How’s the sound system? Lots of bass?!
It's not bad... But it's the base model, so it doesn't have the optional high end audio with subwoofer. For that you'd need to spend more.
Heated seats on the base SE model? In the US? Really? Don't see that on the website
I'm in Canada
Ty
Does this car come with remote start?
Not in the Essential trim, no
My elantra 2013 had that engine defect, so I'm hoping the hyundai dealership honors that, and I hope they're honest when they diagnose it. I'm hoping to trade my 2013 for this 2021 base model. Test drove it and liked it a lot. I like the fact that I can bring up google maps on the screen. The Sport mode is awesome! I'm really not into cars, but I do want reliability. That 10 year warranty is the only thing keeping me on Hyundai.
The 2.0 that's in this elantra has now been around in the elentra since 2015 and was upgraded in 2017. It's actually been a bullet proof engine for Hyundai.
@@edsgarage001 Yeah that's what I've noticed. I haven't seen many wide spread issues with Hyundais since 2015. Ive got everything planned. The one and only thing that I'm still 100% dependant on is how honest the dealership is when diagnosing my Elantra. The deal is that if my car gets approved for an engine change, then they'll accept a trade as if the car was at 100%. I don't know how honest dealerships are in these situations
@@SpectorEuro4 it's actually not up to the dealership. If the manufacturer is willing to cover the cost, the dealership is going to jump on the chance to make the money from the manufacturer.
Remember, the dealer didn't design and build the car.
@@edsgarage001 I see... Well, wish me luck man! And thanks for the video. Like I said, I had the chance to test drive this Elantra and loved it. But I like your review as well
@@edsgarage001 So I did end up doing a trade in, got really ripped off by the dealership. My engine was approved for replacement, but it was going to take a little over a year before it had a new engine. No loaner, and I've got no other car. They gave me about $2000 less than actual price. But the trade off is that I've got 10 years on manufacturer's and bumper to bumper warranty.
Still happy with my new elantra
By the way. Why does the unit you're reviewing have a key for ignition? Mine has a star button and that's it
When is this vehicle coming to India??
Sorry, I have no idea
What is the exact color of this car
It's called Cyber grey
Is this the SEL? I thought it was a SE
Neither... It's an "Essential"
I'm in Canada 😊
It's a base model automatic.
Just bought this exact same car in the same color. I pick it up this Friday. With the current shortages everywhere this is a hell of a deal.
The dealer had this car in stock. Everyone else that sells something comparable is a 8-10 month factory order.
This is also the most affordable new "real" car you can buy in Canada unless you want something like a Chevy Spark or a Mitsubishi Mirage.
$26,040 with tax (Alberta) AND interest over the course of the loan.
Congrats!
And thanks for the comment!
I don’t like the base model. But thanks for reviewing!!!

how much is it?
This particular one has an MSRP of $19,799 plus freight etc...
The manual transmission is $17,899, but loses out on a few safety features.
essential model is automatic or is it extra
The Essential trim comes in either manual or automatic. This one in the video is the automatic.
@@edsgarage001 can you tell me what color is this
Hello from Russia . How tall are you ?
6' 2" ... Or 188cm
Love your video, but the back seat isn't 60/40. It's all one piece on the Essential 2021. You see the 60/40 split on the Ultimate trim level. :)
You're the second person to mention that lol 😆.
I don't know why I said it to be honest, because in the training we did, they noted that fact specifically.
But I was thrown off by the fact that there's still two release latches in the trunk.
Good catch!
What color is that?
Cyber grey
@@edsgarage001 It goes well with the car and makes it stand out.
@@andrewstanley903 agreed
Could i get black rims on the base model?
Not without buying them... Or plasti dip them
@@edsgarage001 😍
@@edsgarage001 can i get a convinience packedg on the base model?
@@vwaxy not on Canada.
Possibly in the USA, you'll need to check with your local dealer
what's the colour on this car ?
Cyber grey
@@edsgarage001 appreciate it
what colour is this?
Cyber grey.
Colour is often country specific, I'm in Canada
@@edsgarage001 thank you! I wanted to buy one but can’t decide between cyber gray or fluid metal..
Ha..just bought a base model..and 6 speed manual???..thats the essential..maybe because I'm in Canada??
I'm in Canada too 😊The Essential comes in manual or automatic.
In the USA from what I understand, they only have the auto.
I refer to this as the base model, as it's the base auto, which is what 9 out of 10 people are after.
Good nice auto nice good
Does this model have CarPlay?
Yes!! And it's even wireless carplay!!
@@edsgarage001 THATS SO COOL!
@@edsgarage001 thank you so much!!!

You didn't cover airbags, i don't think you did, i watched from beginning to end
Side, front end curtain airbags are standard in pretty much everything now 🤷
Is this car white or silver? I can't tell lol
Grey.. it's called cyber grey
@@edsgarage001 Thanks! It's such a nice color! I'm going to definitely consider it.
@@AndEis93 yeah it's very unique, I like it too 🙂
@@edsgarage001 I don't see "Galactic Grey" as a color choice on the US Hyundai Website... Is that color available in the US?
@@AndEis93 it might not be. It wouldn't be the first time.
They may also have given it a different name
Elantra has blown Civic, Corolla, and Mazda3. All base models. Woah. But I have only seen good Japanese built cars, so I am hesitant. Not trying to be racist. Soooo I am on the fence, but the base Elantra beat all the other bases in features. I only do not know the reliability of Hyundai. Maintenance.. are Hyundai's expensive to maintain?
Hyundai is near the top for overall quality and dependability according to jd power and associates. Hyundai actually got the top three spots for quality two years in a row... No other company has ever done that.
They also have one of the lowest costs of ownership in the industry, according to Kelly blue book.
@@edsgarage001 Starting to doubt hyundai reliability after I searched "hyundai issues" in youtube search bar. Thanks for replying tho.
@@dabbleshells542 if you search almost anything "enter brand here, issues" you're going to find all sorts of stuff.
Every brand has issues with something.
@@Anonymous-ji4sb thanks for the help in steering clear! I am currently looking into the Honda Civic 2022
@@Anonymous-ji4sb I know exactly what you mean. My father, he bought a 5th owned Honda Civic when he was in school. He said it still went even after the back floor fell out! And even after the oil started mixing with water, it still ran for some time until it finally died after a few years of constant use every single day. After all my research I learned that Toyota and Honda are the best. Toyota, however, manufactures way more than Honda. Honda, however, supposedly makes stronger engines that are built to last. Glad you took the time to reply, friend.
Почему другая машина ? другой передок, другая приборка, показывали новую элантру, у этой дизайн красивее
Я пыталась перевести твое сообщение. Но я не понял. Но я согласен, что эта новая модель является более красивой
why do you wear a mask in a car by yourself ?
Because back when I made this vehicle, it was still lockdown here, so when inside of vehicles that customers would be test driving, it was required.
I didn't wear a mask while in my own car. But this was a vehicle that clients would be test driving.
Im not a antimasker but damn dude.... not while you are driving and recording a youtube video lol
As this vehicle was being used for test drives, it was required
@@edsgarage001 gotcha
Clarity of the demonstrator's speech was too.muffled by the mask.
Sorry. I did this video when restrictions were kind of rampant.
Lots of mistakes!
The SE trim does not come with 60/40 split rear seats nor heated front seats. The heated seats are in the SEL trim with the Convenience package and the 60/40 rear seats are in the SEL trim with the Premium package. Please do your homework!
I'm in Canada... The packages are totally different here.
Yes I messed up on the 60/40 but only because this is the very first time they've done that in an Elantra. But that was the ONLY mistake I made.
Heated seats are standard in ALL Hyundai's in Canada.
We don't even have those trim names,
They're called Essential, Preferred, Ultimate and Nline here.
@@edsgarage001 Sorry. My comment was harsh. I should have asked if you were in Canada. It makes sense. No hard feelings I hope. I bought a 2021 Elantra SEL with the Convenience & Premium packages last week. The exterior color is Electric Shadow with gray interior. The car is beautiful. I am very pleased with it.
@@johnzoccco congrats on your purchase
I can't believe this guy is wearing a mask by himself in a car
This car is for sale at our dealership, which means other people are going to be in it testing driving etc. I'm wearing a mask so that anything that comes flying out of my mouth doesn't end up on or in the car.
By company policy and by the laws in my city/province.
The rim is trash compare to other trims. fuck man... so much for being cheapest. Is there an option to change rims.
For the base model of almost every other brand, you would only get steel wheels with hubcaps 🤷
@@edsgarage001 but can i ask the dealer to replace to fancy rims like the one with sports trim?
@@TrEndFeVeR22 You can ask the dealer, they'll sell you whatever wheels you want ☺️
You need to take off your mask..we can't understand you..
Understood him just fine, didn't even need captions
@@prothoraxe thx...I didn't think it was so bad.
It's currently company policy, we have no choice but to wear masks inside the cars and building.
