    I luv the new front end, as the old model's front end dipped too low, and was not at all aggressive or a balanced steady look. I love the triangular look, and the rear lamps make it more of a balanced connected body whole.

    I don't know what everyone's bitchin about,...I luv this new design/refresh!!!!!...The front end incorporates Hyundai's new cascading grille, and luv the triangle lights/LEDs and to me everything looks very well integrated!...The rear is ok as well,...but I really like how they tweaked the interior which looks better and more premium IMO!!!!!...So overall I think they did a good job on the refresh and looking forward to the completely new design at some point in the future !!!!!

    • @AsianPetrolhead

    Very good review: polite, accurate, no nonsense. I like the looks of the old Elantra better. They took a friendly looking car and made it mean looking like the nasty Toyota monsters we see on the streets these days. Your automobile should look like a trusted friend, not like a cruel killing machine.

    Actually, I'm getting to like the grille. Here in Australia, only about one in ten Hyundai small cars is an Elantra, the rest being variations of the i30 hatch. I hope the '19 Elantra Sport has the 1.6Turbo with 201 horse power and maybe mated with a 7speed DCT or manual.

    i own the 2019 elantra value edition, i wasn't impressed with the body style very much but i didn't hate it. i just thought it was plain but a good bargain with 7k off sticker. to my surprise i have had a few people tell me they really liked the body style. no one has told me they dont like it. for the price you can get these for they are a great bargain. you can pick up the se for 12500 after rebates. thats w/power windows,locks, keyless entry, air, bluetooth, automatic. so far i really like the car for the price paid, drive train is very smooth, the ride is stable though i wish it were softer, there is some tire noise but not horrible. mpg is very good but about 3 to 4 mpg off what the computer states but still gets rated mpg. dont test drive one and believe what the computer says, i guarantee you its way off. i get about 39mpg on the hwy US. i had a couple minor rattles but i easily fixed them. i would never pay sticker price but with the huge discounts you get this is a great car and a great bargain.

    Finally. Thank you for this review. I am glad Hyundai decided to revert to MPi and ditch GDi for better reliability in the long run without the concern of carbon build up at intake valve side. Though I felt both interior and exterior are better looking than before, it just lacks of character. Very much like and miss the Elantra MD fluid design version 1 by Hyundai's truly Korean designer instead. Is just too bad. Due to ex Audi designer input some Audish DNA to the nose, it just doesn't work. New Corolla works very well in the design department. To the ex Audi designer of Hyundai, give Hyundai something original with character, ditch the audish DNA.

    The facelift will take a bit of getting used to but I think the design is good looking and the feature list is quite good. I love the tail lights and the way they integrate the button to open the trunk into the logo. It looks like it will also handle pretty decently for a non-sporty model. I enjoy the fact that Hyundai and KIA are making their cars quieter but some of their tire choices could be better or they can at least put some more insulation on the cars to lessen the road noise. Looking forward to seeing how the Sport version performs.
    Will you be doing a video on the Forte GT any time soon?

    • @AsianPetrolhead
      @AsianPetrolhead  6 ปีที่แล้ว

    It doesn't look quite so bad in person, in darker colors. The grille is too busy, and the lower fascia looks like a snowplow.
    The dashboard looks like a doodle by a fourth-grader in detention, with the checkerboard gauges and half-chromed vents. The back isn't too bad.
    I was amused when you said they changed from direct injection for fuel efficiency; that's why they said they went to it in the first place, until people complained about having to have the valves cleaned.

      Fyi I just moved to the US from Korea and was very surprised that parking sensors are not standard or at least in the upper trims even for the medium/small sized sedans. Maybe because parking is much easier/roomier here? As for ventilated seats, it’s usually an option for the top trim in sedans in Korea. Here, apparently not.

I'm a little over 6.1. Much improved over the other seat. I'm comfortable now, though an extra half to one inch more would be perfect. But as is, I'm fine. I did mention the seat in an online review for Kia. Hyundai listened. I just turned 40.000 miles in the Elantra, been completely flawless. Very happy with it.
