Redesigned just for the last year release, the models of the Hyundai Elantra could successfully attract more buyers to themselves. Carrying more or less the same specs and features, Hyundai released the 2022 model year edition of its flagship sedan model Elantra to make it bigger than the previous generations.
The 2022 Hyundai Elantra thus continues to have the same three trim levels named as the SE, SEL, and Limited. A 2.0L I-4 engine is set up as the standard powertrain with an FWD configuration that makes 147 hp and returns a mileage of 37 mpg from a combined journey of city roads and highways, which is more than just impressive for its class, opined the City of Industry Hyundai dealer.
Where Does the 2022 Elantra Stand in its Segment?
The 2022 model year edition of the Hyundai Elantra sedan series now has a better cargo capacity of 14.2 cu-ft., while the travelers get to enjoy the comfort of a massive interior space. This midsize sedan from Hyundai is known for its capability of hauling five adult people, including the pilot, because of which many experts choose this model as one of the most recommendable one for small families.
The other reason that makes the 2022 Hyundai Elantra stand ahead of many of its rivals in its segment, is its Hybrid variant that has earned worldwide accolades for returning a mileage as high as 53 mpg from a combined road trip. Therefore, in its segment of midsize sedans, the 2022 Hyundai Elantra stands as a strong competitor of models like Kia Forte, Honda Civic, and Toyota Corolla.
Power Variations
The 2022 Hyundai Elantra series of compact sedans have a couple of power variants in its current year lineup. A 2.0L I-4 engine is used for the lower trims that can churn out 147 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque when hitched to an Intelligent Variable Transmission with an FWD configuration. However, the special Elantra N Line trim of the 2022 Hyundai Elantra carries under its hood a 1.6L turbo I-4 engine throwing 201 hp and excellent acceleration prowess.
Those who occupy the pilot seat of the 2022 Hyundai Elantra model will also be assisted with a Drive Mode Select feature that will allow switching between Sport, Normal, and Smart drive modes, as per the drive situations and road conditions. These modes make a huge difference in the steering response as well as the throttle input while a pair of rear suspensions help maintain the wheel alignment of this near-luxury sedan model while handling undulated road surfaces.
Features for Comfort and Convenience
The 2022 Hyundai Elantra sedans are feature-rich in every step. They offer you a unique set of features as standard like a tilted telescopic steering wheel though features like a dual-zone automatic climate control can come as standard only on the mid-trim SEL onwards.
To carry your belongings, the 2022 Hyundai Elantra will spread a trunk space of 14.2 cu-ft. that scores well in its segment, and on the other hand, the Convenience Package offered from the SEL trim onwards will include a leather-trimmed steering wheel and heated front seats as optional luxuries, stated the Hyundai dealer serving City of Industry.
