When Hyundai first began selling its vehicles in the United States, some consumers and critics dismissed the company entirely as nothing more than a manufacturer of shoddily-made products sold at bargain-basement prices to appeal to a demographic who were willing to overlook quality in favor of cost-effectiveness. Much has changed since then. In the early 2000s, Hyundai vehicles became known for being remarkably safe and backed by a warranty that led the industry in coverage. As the new millennium has moved on, the Hyundai Elantra has become one of the most popular vehicles on the road, and the 2022 edition of the sedan retains that praise.

Performance
The mark of a good vehicle is one that makes multiple options available to consumers in order to adhere to their individual needs. The 2022 Hyundai Elantra offers two powertrain options for its drivers. For those who favor economy over speed, a 1.4L engine which is fairly conservative with its fuel consumption. Drivers can expect to achieve an MPG of 33 when traveling in the city limits and 43 while on the highway.
For those who are more performance-oriented, Hyundai has you covered. A 1.6L Turbocharged four-cylinder engine possesses a horsepower rating of 201 and is still fairly efficient in terms of fuel economy. 28 MPG is attained while driving in the city, a number which expands to 36 while on the highway.
Safety
Looking across the whole of the automotive industry, one notices that many safety features bear a striking similarity to one another. This of course speaks to the industry being guided by trends. The question becomes one of what comes standard and what comes with a higher price tag. The 2022 Hyundai Elantra comes with a wide variety of standard features that look after your best interest and provide an elevated piece of mind. Lane departure warning and lane-keep assist are standard, as are automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection. In government-mandated crash testing, the NHTSA (National Highway & Traffic Safety Association) awarded the Elantra a five-star safety rating, the absolute highest distinction available.
