We bought ours in 2021. Liked it so much that when it was totaled in a hit and run accident we bought the 2023 model in less than a week.
Glad you are okay.

hyundai cars never last 8 years./
@@tocreatee3585and you know this for a fact. Because last time I checked this is false lol
@@tocreatee3585 there are thousands of Hyundai's with over 250k to 300k miles bud.. lol
I have had mine since 2021 as well. I have taken my car through creeks knee deep in North Carolina, and I’m 6”3. I live in Florida and my car made it through hurricane Ian, and still got me around through the flooding. I have fallen in love with this car over and over.
I have a 2018 Elantra SE. Manual transmission and pretty basic in terms of options. I get over 40mpg. I have 139k. I maintain it very well, checking fluid between oil changes. Changed a wheel bearing and seeping water outlet. Spent under $500 on outside normal maintenance items. The most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. The car is great.
I owned a 2018 Elantra SEL. I loved the car so much, but mine was unreliable. Within the first 25k miles, it needed new front struts, new ignition coils, and it had ongoing problems with the 6-speed automatic. I ended up selling it.
@palebeachbum ugh. Sorry you had to go through that. I'd be curious if yours was built in Alabama as opposed to Korea. I specifically chose Korea. What color was it. Believe it or not, Korea and US had different colors....
If the manual says to change the ivt fluid at 60,000 then it should be changed. Not changing it in accordance with the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule may actually void the warranty.
You did well, Elantra is a very good car for the money, great warranty, well price. It will be our next car... this is from someone being in automobile business for a very long time and retired.
I own a 2017 Elantra Value Edition with 88,500 miles and have been basically flawless, with the expection of one ignition coil going bad, replaced under warranty . The body and paint is 95% as day one and still getting 35MPG driving around town!
Your 2017 elantra has a 6 speed 'shiftronic' mitsubishi transaxle. NOT A CVT
@@stevenweiss2148 I know that and I NEVER said I have a CVT! So I dont know what the hell you are talking about.
I currently have a Elantra as a rental because my Tesla 3 is in the shop. I agree, the Elantra is very impressive. I love the range and it's got me thinking if I should go back to ICE vehicle for now.
I bought my Elantra in 2021 . Still have it and runs smooth
Love mine. I got it in January 2021. Electric shadow color.
Haven't hit 25,000 miles yet
Just bought the 2024 SEL. I’m only 200 miles in but I love it and it’s great to know how reliable it is, and like you I bought it largely for the warranty. Looking forward to spending more time with it and I’ll definitely be coming back for your maintenance videos, God bless.
I have a 2021 Elantra sel with 39K miles and I’m surprised you had that many issues, the only complaints I have with the car is the apply CarPlay is wireless I don’t like that I find it less reliable than wired CarPlay, besides that I never ran into a real issue with this car it’s served me good and haven’t had a problem with the engine or transmission, I keep up with oil changed, got a new set of tires and front brake pads at 35K miles.(I’ve had the car for a little over 3 years now)
109k miles no issues other than top engine mount. Mine is a 2017 and due to gas direct change spark plugs every 30k use tier 1 gas and yeah amazingly reliable.
For 2021 they switched to MPI probably for that very reason. GDI has both benefits and drawbacks.
My mother has the exact same one (same colour as yours). She absolutely loves it and it's been perfectly reliable for her.
Hyundais are just too reliable till this day. Great brand
A lot of Stuff failed and replaced under warranty. That’s the difference between a Toyota/Lexus. 20 years I haven’t got anything replace or any thing failed.
@@TocyBlox A lady in 2018 put a million miles on her Hyundai Elantra. It didn't fail her.
@@cyguy2319 while that is an amazing g feat. But it’s only “A” lady tho.
Idk Time will tell if the mass of the Tucson can outlast the rav4.
Thanks for video. Waiting for summary after 100k!
I bought mine in 2022 but it is a 2019 model in my country. i love it i am waiting for the new model.
I have a 2023 with about 30k miles on it. I have loved it! Now, I did have an issue with the transmission at 12k miles. It cost me $0 out of pocket due to the warranty. I will be buying another Hyundai. I just convinced my sister to buy a 2024 N Line a few days ago, and she is loving it so much!
Nice. I’m the second owner of mine. So sadly my warranty goes out at 60k. But im about 700 mi away from 50k so I still have 10k miles! I think I’ll have the CVT fluid replaced at 60k per the manual. But mine is doing great! Luckily the previous owner also gave it plenty of love!
Thanks for great review.I wanted to buy. 2024 Sonata but in Canada the $36000 non turbo version has no navigation or analog guages like the US versions which is a dealbreaker for me .So I'm seriously considering the $31000 Elantra Luxury which has both.Your review has been a great help.
Get elantra hybrid
Since you travel all over the country, I highly recommend taking it to another Hyundai dealership to have the CVT fluid changed now rather than later. Preventive maintenance is never a bad idea. Following the severe service schedule created by Hyundai will not void the warranty. That's nonsense. If they push back, insist that they change it, and stand outside the service bay to watch and make sure they actually change the fluid. They're giving you the run around because they don't want to be on the hook for replacing your CVT under warranty. It would be better for it to fail at 60k miles under warranty than changing the fluid just outside warranty and it failing at that point.
Can't do that. Customers are not allowed in the service areas.
@@chuckh4077 You can stand at the service bay door.
Very helpful video. Planning to buy 2024 model this month
How was it? Me, I'm getting a 2020 version soon. Budget wont allow for new car. Was curious about how it held up around 60k miles.
I have a 2019 kia forte LXS. Same engine and transmission, 103k miles & never had a problem! I love mine. Hopefully trading for a Elanta N line soon!
Any idea when the 24 n line comes out in the states
@@brobob52 I read a comment from Hyundai USA posted on Reddit that these aren’t expected until summer 2024
@@ZACaro damn
Awesome car. I have 2023 Elantra hybrid limited, and a 2024 Elantra SEL. Great cars and reliable to commute.. 50$ and fills up tanks
My 2022 2.0 w/99k has been fair. 45mpg with 90% hwy driving. Tires(continentals) look great still and are the original set. Only negative has been a bad thermostat at 94k, which was $200 plus 2 hours labor to install.
2 Hours Labor? Cars sure have changed. Thermostat on my 64 Comet.. the part is $12 and the labor is 20 minutes 😂
@@thejesusgeek24 not sure about the thermostat being 200 bux if it's mechanical. Lol maybe that's with an inspection cost. An older model thermostat is around 40 bux.
Anyway, if you were to do it yourself, it would take no more than 30 mins but they factor in draining the fluid, cost of the fluid, bleeding the fluid, and perhaps pressure test after too. So 2 hours is fair for a dealership or any repair shop.
Shouldn't that have been covered by the 10-year 100k powertrain warranty?
@Rick-ml4tp I wish. It's part of the cooling system, which is definitely essential for the powertrain but not technically a part of the powertrain and not covered. Basically, you're probably never gonna have something covered break from 60k to 100k.
Too bad it wasn't set up like the Town Car. $15 thermostat, two bolts on top of the engine, 10 min job!!!!!
Great update - gives me confidence in mine - I have a '21 Elantra (called Preferred here, middle model, but I got a heated leather wheel and they take away the dual heat unit). Only 25,000 km on it - I added the 8 year or 160,000 km warranty ($2000) - maybe in year six I will sell it to a courier or something. My steering wheel does do that swish sound - but only occasionally - so I bet I will have to have them swap that out. Interested in what the engine mount warning was. The mileage of these cars is like magic - suburban city I get 5.6L/100km to 7.3/100km in winter. I literally gave up on the factory tires and move to all weather (so winter rated but fine to use in summer) - rims and the pressure sensors and storage was just too expensive. The bonus was that it bumps the sidewall rating up (stiffer) probably to counter the deeper tread. I lost a bit of mpg but they are way nicer 3 seasons of the year no question - Bridgestone WeatherPeak.
You should try the hybrid version it has 550miles range with one fuel tank
Here in saudia arabia the dealership changes the CVT fluid after 60000 kilometers = 37000 miles
Those dealerships are doing it right, I'm not sure why here in the states they don't want vehicles maintained.
From personal experience ask any mechanic that has seen a “sealed” transmission. They will tell you that regardless the transmission oil needs to be changed or your car will give up right after the warranty expires. Don’t wait and take care of all your car maintenance. Oil is cheap, engines and transmission are not.
I bought 2024 and one of the decisive factors was a warranty as well.
Have had my 2022 for a bit over 2 years with 66,000 on it now. Original Continental tires will be replaced at 70,000, currently at 4/32 of tread. Battery went bad a month ago, since I was over the 36,000 mile mark, dealer told me too bad! Otherwise, no issues. Daelear drained and refilled trans at 50,000 and said nothing about voiding the warranty.
16k miles in my Lantra N. Really fun car no issues so far. Tire wore pretty fast tho I drive thru corners all the time and crap road conditions. Gonna have to replace soon.
Bought my Elantra new back in December of 2020. Put 138,000 miles on it. That's just driving from home to work and back. 70 miles one way. I like my Elantra except for my back up camera which went out after warranty expired
2022 two tone, fully optioned at cad 35k. I'm now at 28,000km. there are other great cars to consider at the low-mid 30k but honestly, im satisfied. it's somewhat fun to drive, and u can get up to 56mpg\4.5L/100km. which is insane numbers for a non hybrid Sure, the engine upgrade would've been nice since for a 35k, you could get something like civic with upgrade engine, but elantra 2.0 is not slower than civic with the turbo. In fact, it's faster from a dead stop. Great tech, great car.
Elantra N?
Great update ,,,,,,,very well done.
In many older cars, you drove away from the accident, which was an important consideration in those days. People knew to centerpunch things so they weren't involved in an offset crash. My stepfather drove his 1958 Ford truck off a bridge, when it was retrieved, he drove it home.
It’s true that at lower speed collisions, damages are less severe and MUCH less costly than newer cars
While this is true, a life is worth a whole lot more than a car. There are very real reasons we choose to reduce impact to the driver and let the car take the brunt of the damage, instead of the passenger. Your chance of dying in a car crash these days is way lower giving you the ability to go home to your family rather than just your old car. A whole lot of moms and dad's came home this year thanks to safety tech. PITA yes, but its oh so worth it in the long run.
Great info! On Point
i have elantra 2022 with 1.6 ivt you have to change oil with 2 filter im from saudi arabia 50 degree so hot🥲 i like my elantra its high milage car 197000 km im uber driver😊
Nice I hope to visit one day.
Kinda crappy about that flat towing but a regular flat bed trailer is just so much more useful in many more situations its not really a downside, plus youre saving excess wear on those wheel bearings and tires.
I am thinking of buying a hybrid blue since I drive an average of 24,000 miles a year for work.
A lot of Stuff failed and replaced under warranty. That’s the difference between a Toyota/Lexus. 20 years I haven’t got anything replace or any thing failed.
I changed my fluid at 60. Was never told it would void the warranty. Measure what you drain and add that amount back in
If you like the idea of Tesla's FSD, you can buy a comma 3x for your Hyundai. It is better than FSD at the fundamentals, but closer to 2022 FSD in terms of advanced features.
Hyundai/Kia is the best manufacturer for it. I have one in my 2023 Elantra. I drove from Minnesota to Florida, and it was hands free 99% of the time.
609th subscriber!!!
I went test drive the hybrid 2023. I had a Kia K5 2023 got hail damage. I felt in love the Elantra hybrid. Bought it. Hybrid limited in Town 50 mpg. Free way 60 to 74 mpg
I’m also looking at the hybrid… how’s the dct transmission in it treating you ?
@@BryanVGK23 so far so good
Just bought the 2024 model yesterday I was gonna go with the Sonata but I ended up going with the Elantra cheaper and better gas Mileage
I've never had a motor mount replaced and I've had Toyota's I went to 200,000 me and they didn't even need motor mounts and I've never had a steering worm gear replaced either and if you look online vehicle should be easily able to go into 100,000 miles plus
I had to replace that engine mount and steering worm gear in my mazda , and almost every french car i owned (peugeot,citroen...) , its a commun problem in economical cars , its just toyota built different 😂 but boring :/ .
I've owned Toyotas too and can confirm their quality and dependability.They have a well deserved reputation for being the best in quality. This car is first year production so I figured there may be some issues but thankfully Hyundai backs their vehicles with the best warranty in the industry.
Nice informative video, Regarding Elantra, MPG is very good, I noticed your cars engine bay, Quite dusty. You drive in sandy areas.
Great review thanks 🙏
My dealer never said anything like this. You went to crap dealers. It literally says in the manual to change it under severe service which literally everyone drives under those conditions. Yes the label on the transmission pan says otherwise and is contradictory which is really stupid but I think it’s to deter from it other than dealers and only for those that drive “severe” service.
My 2019 Elantra sport with DCT transmission has been terrible. DCT transmission plates had to be replace at 30k miles. The worm shaft had to be replaced. There is creaking noise in the suspension when turning slowly and the dealer has replaced serval parts and can’t find where the noise comes from. Currently with 47k miles and now the pain is starting to fall off.
Dct is super sensitive to slow start or constant stops with slow movement, u ll wear the clutch easily that way , everytime u accelerat from a stop give it gas to help link the transmi plates ,if there is a lot of cars slowly moving wait a moment till the distance between u and guy in front increase then accelerate a little bit , dct is not a good choice for a crowded city.
I did my first CVT drain and fill on my '22 Elantra SE with Amsoil CVT at 5,700+ miles, then another at 10k. This is my first CVT vehicle so I want it to last. Changing the fluid on this is waaay easier than my wife's '21 Toyota RAV4....
I have a question.. I just bought a 24 Elantra SEL . Are they standard to have a cvt? Bc mine shows like an 8 speed?

@@MatthewGuynn-ki8rn yes it's still a CVT, they just programmed in fake shift points so it kinda feels like a regular automatic transmission.
@@DRZrider07 agh.. that kinda scares me ..
@@MatthewGuynn-ki8rn well just do like I'm doing and drain and fill the CVT semi frequently and hopefully it'll last well past anyone who chooses not to for fear the dealer will be mad (just don't tell them!) These cars are super easy to maintenance. Take out the air box and you'll see the CVT fill plug, underneath is the drain bolt and on the front side is a level check bolt, all the same size, I think it's 24mm. It'll drain about 3 quarts or so, I buy 4 just to be safe, and I feel better knowing I've got Amsoil keeping wear minimal. Most say to change CVT fluid every 30,000 miles but I'm going to do it every 10,000 for my own peace of mind. Just like I change my engine oil every 3,000 miles even though the manual says 5,000 for severe service. I want my vehicle to last.
Just saw the care car nut’s review of the elantra (current gen)…the fact that are more exposed sections underneath compare to the civic, corolla, impreza and mazda3 and there’s a plastic component of the ball joint makes me really hesitant to buy it
I've never had a steering worm gear replaced and I've had cars with well over 200,000 MI
What is your opinion on the Hyundai Elantra Hybrid vs Hyundai Elantra gas model?
I contemplated the Hybrid in 2021 when I bought this car. Hybrid was $2k more which was also the same amount of gas savings over a 5 year period vs. the regular. Both should cost about the same over a 5 year period. I chose the regular one. Less things to go wrong.
Great video. What was issue with the backup camera? Was it the camera itself? Thanks
I've got a 2021 Elantra N-line and my camera just started going out, it works some times but mostly doesn't and I'm out of warranty
Had issues and covered by warranty doesn't mean it didn't have issues before 60k
Extended warranty is a must then after 60k.
I love the video.
However it doesn't take hours to charge a Tesla. Not even close. But range anxiety is real and charging times still suck.
I have a 2021 Kia forte no problems so far but my engine is starting to run way rougher than yours and have had lifter ticking for a while quite scared tbh
As you mentioned about your steering wheel, how do we know about steering problem (steering wheel swiss) as you said in the video?
This happened to my parents Nissan years ago. Basically you would keep turning the wheel and nothing would happen or you would and it would oversteer way too much. It was very inconsistent to the normal driving patterns. That's how they found out.
Doc Brown: “Marty (Bif) is in a ‘46 Ford. We’re in a Delorian. If we land on him he’ll rip through us like tin foil.”
Can the IVT be made to operate continuously variable way like a regular CVT?
Also need more info on your living out of an RV how is it what sort of internet do you have what about parking and other details like that? Id love to see a video of that explanation! Been kinda eyeing the idea of doing that myself, but not sure what would be better A mototr home and tow a normal car behind or a pick up truck with a pull behind camper
Great video
I brought my car in 2021 only problem i had was the camera. And battery. But i kinda feel my battery was switched out. I wasn't having problems with it before i took it to the shop. I feel someone was trying to pocket some money. Telling me to buy from the dealership. But i didn't. Went somewhere else. Never went back
Usually batteries in cars you buy at dealership will last a year and you have to replace it. Good batteries are $200 nowadays
I own a 2021 Elantra N-line stick shift with 138,000 miles on it in California, 2nd set of tires 3 windshields (currently cracked) waiting until i need to change it, 2 serpentine belt (changed under recall) spark plugs, filters and fluid changes at recommended intervals, the back up camera is not working most of the time recently and any possible fix is very expensive, hoping to figure it out myself.
Other then the camera issue I'm happy with it, if i was buying it today i might look into the Corolla AWD stick shift instead, maybe
Thank you!👍
Please another update on the car specially if there is any issue encountered
2019 elantra sport, 1 spark plug a year and one year a spark plug and coil, each time was so bad had to have it towed. Ended up trading it in because they wouldn't address why the issue kept happening. 4 years and only 32k miles...shouldn't happen once, let alone 3 times.
Good job, babe.
Thank you!
What are your thoughts on getting a sonata? a 2024 one, i saw they got a new facelight and its beautiful
I say go for it.
What’s the sound for the steering wheel? I think I might need to take in mine. Also how did you find out about the engine mount? Thanks! I’m at 55k miles and done camera, horn and taillights for water all under warranty. We he have the same car ! 😂
The steering wheel made a swishing noise when I would turn it. The motor mount started making a rattling noise upon startup. I took it in and when they asked me what the symptom was I told them "It sounds like a bad motor mount." They called me after looking at it and said "Yep, it's the motor mount. We will cover it under warranty." Took a week to get the part but they ordered it immediately then got me in quickly to replace it.
@@thejesusgeek24 hmm, I have the same issue then. I’ll take it in then thanks!
Do you know if the front sensor is covered under warranty (I got extended warranty). My 2021 Elantra front sensor and backup camera are out.
my 2023 hyundai elantra hybrid was just boughtback by hyundai for lemon law. 6 horns since aug 17 22. Cant find main problem casuing horn to blow. 36k miles.
you say hyundais been good to you, not to me. They just tell dealer to replace horn and get me on my way. Never find the main problem and doesnt care.
Anything that is mass produced can have defects. It sounds like the one you bought had a more complex issue than the dealer could find. At least they bought it back instead of leaving you with a defective car.
Was that the only problem? While I agree that sucks and needs addressed it doesn’t sound like any major mechanical problems occurred.
Having 3 problems even if its replaced by warranty is already really bad lol
I don't blame hardworking folks who dare NOT touch any Kia or Hyundai vehicle. With the massive bill they shouldered from the engine failure fiasco plus other major safety recalls, guess who will foot the bill eventually?
For which year and model because I’m planning to buy a ELANTRA after using my parents KONA for 2 years, which has the same engine
@@keef4049don’t worry about it. The newer generation of Hyundai’s seem to be a lot better than the older(2016 and older) and some of the turbo models. When there are issues, they’re covered under warranty or recalls(EVEN THE MIGHTY TOYOTA HAS THEM WITH THEIR 100k ENGINE REPLACEMENT RECALL). There is a blip with the turbo ones, just keep on top of your oil changes.
What drive mode to get 52 mpg?
Smart Mode gets you the best fuel economy.
If Aint broke dont try and fix it. Go with your first mind and gut feeling.
The hybrid version of the elantra is very enticing option especially when it has a DCT instead of a CVT.
U lucky my sonata 2021 had to get a new engine and transmission before the first oil change.
2022 Honda accord. Zero. Nothing. Not even brakes after 47k.
Honda makes nice things. They're known for building dependable engines.
bought to possibly buy a 2021 hyundai elantra sel w/ 60k miles for 16k... is it worth?
No. Price should be around 14k
only 49 K miles on tires? How the hell you drive?
please clean your engine bay- They can be washed with a hose with a spray!
Hey I was hoping you could tell me how to remove the backup noise. Thanks brother I have a 23 hybrid limited
I'm not sure there is a way to do that.
That’s safety regulated in ALL hybrid vehicles. Sound can’t be remove.
What's that in kilometres will have to convert
Google it😅
It's about 96,000 kilometres
The only things... Geez! That thing is a lemon!
You are SUPPOSED to change your transmission fluid... do more research every mechanic says this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! even the manual in severe says to do so
Is your elantra a hybrid?
No. 2.0L with IVT
Rather buy a Hyundai than a Toyota. Esp Elantra over Corolla. Toyota looks so cheap and plastic-y esp the interiors.
Hyundai Elantra is THE ugliest vehicle I have ever seen in years 😆 The Prius is already ugly and the Elantra is even UGLIER. Holly molly... it looks like a broken starcraft and is it a half of a spaceship ??? Idk man... it looks just too weird to me
I like how it looks. I've grown tired of round cars with smooth edges, cars have looked that way since the 1990s and finally sharp edges are making a comeback.
Did you go to the vsp appointment recently or no?
It a piece of crap car. Don't buy it. Ebgine design is crap
I must not be hard to impress. This car is way nicer than anything else I've owned in the past.
How comfortable are the seats on those long road trips
Pretty comfortable. I've enjoyed every trip I have taken this car on.
The CVT fluid should be drained and refilled at least every 30,000 miles. Don't care what any "expert" says, if you want the CVT to last that's what you need to do.
I agree, I don't like anything about this "Lifetime Fluid" or "Do Not Change the Fluid"
These cars have an actual 6 speed automatic transmission. Not a cvt
....But it hasn't failed. This isn't a Nissan. You don't find many people complaining about the kia/Hyundai cvt going out at the same rate
@@2wild4ubanshee Noooo, the 2021-2024 has a CVT Trans. Better do some more homework.
My 2023 hybrid has a 6 speed dual clutch transmission.
I’m in Canada, I have 2022 Elantra Preferred Sun/Tech package, the only problem I’m facing is with Bluelink.
Recognize @ 1:43 where you are driving. I'm up the mountain about 25 miles from there. Did you buy yours at the dealer near where this scene was shot?
No, I bought it when I still lived in Arizona. Just moved out here this year.
Awesome review
