Q: when is the 2011 hyundai elantra going to be for sale?
the 2011 model sonata and elantra touring are already for sale in the US (if i’m not mistaken) but what’s taking the elantra so long? I know they’re rolling out a new design, but the suspense is killing me!

A: From what I’ve been reading it will be built in the US starting in a couple of months so most likely it will start selling early next year. A little more info here http://www.insideline.com/hyundai/elantra/2011/2011-hyundai-elantra-will-be-built-in-alabama.html

I really like my ‘01 Elantra but I have to admit the ‘11 looks great. Hyundai is really coming on strong. I’m starting to keep an eye on the new Kia Optima.

Q: When will the 2011 Hyundai Elantra be available?
Just saw pics of the new 2011 Elantra/Avante. Looks incredible! Does anyone know when it will be released in the U.S.?

A: word is late July and most likely no later then August. they should start trickling in at first with more and more becoming readily available in the following weeks and months

this is what i have read, so thats all i’ve got. but it sounds reasonable to me. i don’t think they want the release around the holidays or New Year, and certainly not right after the new year. thats sort of late and by that time plenty of cars should be on the lots and ready to sell, with the 2010’s already blown out

probably be a great time to get a real bargain on a 2010 model for anyone interested, too. and yeah, i agree the new Elantra is a nice car. i asked a “yahoo” question about it last week concerning the Civic and Corolla =]

here are some nice wallpaper size studio pics

i think the car will look more ordinary then these upper trim level cars with bigger wheels and tires and chrome door handles, but even in GLS form it will be attractive, no doubt

Q: When is the 2011 Hyundai Elantra coming out?
I’ve been keeping an eye on this car, because I really like the design. I’m looking to buy it! Anyone know when it’s coming out?

A: It’s out now but in very limited quantities. The dealer near me said that Hyundai supplied only two Elantras per dealer and they’re the fully loaded models. So you will have to wait a littler longer for other trim models to come around.
I got to sit in one and it’s very nice. The cabin is airy and the fit and finish is very good. Not as much headroom in the back as the previous Elantras but the folding arm rest with cup holders is a nice touch. The GPS/radio system seems to be the same as in the Sonata. That’s a good thing.

Wow.. just wow.. comments?!

HyundaiGuru, can you believe how stylish Hyundai is becoming?
ricardo, try again.. Hyundai is very reliable and has been becoming more and more reliabile over the last several years and the critics agree.

Btw, Hyundai didn’t become the world’s 4th largest automaker and the #1 fastest growing automaker on “coke cans”.

HyundaiGuru, is your dealership excited about the upcoming Elantra?

A: yes

such a super car in this price avante and as well verna

but verna trnsform……………..
i dont think it is good cra

Q: 2011 Hyundai Elantra or 2011 Honda Civic?
Both cars are what others call it “boring” because its not a sport car.
Now the Elantra was better on gas, power, style, features.

So the only question is, RELIABILITY, does the Hyundai can match the Honda?

This is my first car that Im going to buy brand new, my car right now was old and was a gift from a friend. Im also considering the Mazda 3 s Sport hatchback, but its my last option, because of poor gas mileage.

Honda Civic is rated 26mpg city, Hyundai Elantra was rated 29mpg city. 3 miles difference is almost my one way travel to work, I travel 4miles one way.

My concern is should I pick the Civic because it is established as a very reliable car? Or is the Elantra worth it because its better on gas, and it is not far reliable than Hondas? not to mention it has an advantage of 8 more HP…I hope for your unbiased and knowledgeable answers. Thanks!

A: The new 2011 Elantra looks like a mini Sonata, which is a best seller. For the same price, you will get many more standard features in the Elantra (stability control, alloy wheels, bluetooth, cruise control, intermittent wipers, keyless remote, etc) and a longer warranty than the Civic. The 2010 Elantra was rated very reliable by consumer reports. T

Q: 2011 Mazda 3 s Sport or 2011 Hyundai Elantra?

A: Hyundai’s are proven to be more reliable than Mazda’s. Look at JD Powers and Consumer Reports reliability rankings.

The 3 is a fun to drive sporty car and still IMO one of the top cars in the class but with all things considered the new Elantra is a step above it. The Elantra gets 40 MPG with a 148 HP engine while the 3’s engine only gets 33 MPG with the same amount of HP. The Elantra’s drivetrain is more advanced.
Plus the Elantra just won the 2011 Residual Value Award for it’s class. The resell value may HIGHER now than the 3.

Hyundai sells 4x’s more cars than Mazda worldwide.

The 3 is a fine car; but right now the Elantra is class leading.

Q: 2011 Hyundai Elantra GLS Preffered?
I looked on to the trims and specs of the GLS, and it does not have a standar AC and Cruise control.
When you select the GLS manual transmission, you can select the popular package which offers the AC and Cruise control. But when you select the GLS automatic transmission, you can only select the “preferred” package, and this package does not include the AC and cruise control.

It seems that, the AC and cruise control are only offered on Manual GLS and on the Limited.

So does the GLS automatic, with preferred package have AC and cruise control option? Is it standard when you choose the automatic option or not? Cause when you choose automatic on the GLS trim, it adds like 2200+ dollars, I dont think this is just for the auto trans itself.

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

A: Usually it is standard with the upgrade to an automatic transmission.

Q: Is the new Elantra design a 2011 or 2012 model?
On Edmunds it shows a picture of the new design for the 2011 Elantra page. http://www.edmunds.com/hyundai/elantra/2011/index.html

But Wikipedia says it will be a 2012 model? When will this new design be sold?

A: its a 2011 model, sure. word is it could be released in October with a trickle coming in toward years end and dealers well stocked sometime around January

some say late September, too. so the car will be at the dealers for the holidays. but “official” release dates are hard to pin, as no one really knows for sure until all the bugs have been ironed out, the marketing is in place, and the finished product is ready to go. one thing is most certain, however. and that is between early fall and early winter of this year the new Elantra should be here

but i am keeping my ‘08!!

Q: Hyundai Elantra/Evante 2011 release date?
I heard it’s officially unveiling in November at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. Does that mean they start selling it in November or should i expect it to be at a dealer later…?

Also any better car soon to come out besides the Hyundai Elantra/Evante 2011 that’s a compact and in the same price range? I know the ford focus is one of them but it doesn’t look at nice exterior wise : p

A: December-latest mid January 2011 as indicated by manufacturer.

Q: owners of 2007-11 Hyundai Elantra~ Quick question about keys?
Alright, i am thinking about buying a 2011 Hyundai Elantra as a business car. Are “Valet” keys included? Valet keys are like the ones that allow to open the door and start the engine but not the trunk and glove box.

A: Majority of domestics have that future not the imports. To answer your question: no, there is no valet key to any of Hyundai models.

Q: Hyundai Elantra Touring – Does the cargo screen cover from the 2010 model fit the new 2011 models?

A: NO. Different trunk and modified face lift. Tried this and its no match.

Q: Is stability control standard on the 2011 Elantra?
I know that right now electronic stability control is only available on the highest end Elantra. But with the government’s push towards making it more common, will stability control be standard on even the lowest end 2011 Elantra? I heard it ESC is required to be standard on 95% of 2011 model cars, and with Hyundai already making it available on some Elantras, I’m hoping.

Thanks

A: yes, it will be standard on all upcoming hyundai models. in 2012 every new passenger car sold as in the U.S. must be so equipped, so automakers are making the jump

Q: Which new 2010/2011 car is better : KIA Cerato or Hyundai Elantra ? and why ?

A: Actually this is a pretty broad question. The Kia Cerato is the Forte here in the US and it is different than the 2010 Elantra. And the 2011 Elantra will be much different than both. In fact there may be 4 to 5 different engine choices just between the 3 cars alone since the 2011 Elantra may have 2 engine choices.
The 2011 will be better than both cars, from what I can tell so far, but the the 2010 model will be cheaper. The Cerato, for now, is the in between pick but, in it’s highest trim model, will be the quickest.
Without knowing what you’re looking for it’s pointless to suggest any of them.

@ THE Author – The question wasn’t about a fcuking Corolla. If you don’t know the answer, don’t respond to the question. With all of Toyota’s problems a Corolla would be the last car I would suggest.

Maybe I should elaborate the differences a little more.
The 2010 Elantra has a DIFFERENT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION THAN THE 2010 CERATO AND THE 2011 ELANTRA NOT ONLY WILL HAVE A DIFFERENT ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION FROM BOTH THE 2010 ELANTRA AND 2010 CERATO BUT WILL USE DIFFERENT ENGINE TECHNOLOGY AS WELL.

Q: What do you think about the next Elantra?! Wow!?
http://www.worldcarfans.com/110042925931/all-new-2011-hyundai-elantra–avante-unveiled

Wow I have a 2003 Elantra and I don’t even recognize it anymore… the 2011 is going to be absolutely beautiful.
umm there are no shots of the interior.. the only ’spied’ shots of the interior were from early this year and it wasn’t finished.

A: well being an owner of the current gen i would have to say i like the coming one a lot. its good to see hyundai finally has a brand identity. in the past each model looked so different then one another they could have been made by any number of car makers. now with the new designs and styling you can look at the cars and say “i can tell thats a hyundai.” in the past if you pulled the badges off the cars and asked a focus group who made the car you would get a lot of different guesses. now with the new styling people will recognize a hyundai the same way they recognize a honda. family resemblance, uniform styling across all model lines

i like that i can park MY Elantra next to the new generation cars and you can see where those cars design and styling came from. they were headed in the right direction with the current Elantra and by looking at the design and improving upon it, they have come up with some nice looking cars.
