Is the Elantra's bold styling passé, or will it soon look dated?

I'm on the fence. There are some angles that look great, others that don't. It's definitely eye catching, which is a good thing for a compact car in this price range.
How much of a budget sports sedan is the Elantra N Line? Or is it just clever marketing?
02 January 2025 10:24
The N Line is a nice compromise of performance and practicality. It's not a track monster, but it's a hell of a lot more fun than a regular Elantra without giving up daily usability.

It's just clever marketing. If you want a real sports sedan, save up for the full Elantra N. All show and no go, the N Line.

The N Line gives you a lot of bang for your buck for the price. It's not the fastest but it's a massive step up from the base model and I feel special driving it.

I cross shopped the N Line with the Civic Si, honestly, the Hyundai felt more refined and comfortable for daily use. It's sporty enough for me.

For people who want something sportier but aren’t willing to pay for or justify the impracticality of a full on performance car, it’s a good entry point. It’s a 'sports sedan lite' kinda thing.

The N Line is more about the look than anything else. The power bump's pretty modest; the suspension tweaks are nice. It’s for the people who want to feel sporty without being a true sports car.

I’ve followed my N Line a few times and it’s no race car, but it’s surprisingly capable and fun. If you want to take it further, it’s a great platform for mild modifications.
Are people just lying about the Hyundai Elantra's reliability?
02 January 2025 10:24
I’ve had my 2018 Elantra now at over 200k miles and it’s been rock solid. It’s just regular maintenance, and it keeps on ticking. I do think some of the reliability issues are blown out of proportion or reflect older models.

The complete opposite has been my experience. My engine light came on in my 2021 Elantra with only 15k miles on it and I've been waiting months for the parts due to all the recalls. It's been a nightmare.

It really depends on the year and engine I think. So far, the newer Smartstream engines seem to be doing well, but it’s too early to tell long term. Maybe if you're worried, look at a certified pre owned with some warranty left.

No car is perfect, let’s be real. It's hard to beat Hyundai's 10/100k warranty, however. For a long time, if something goes wrong, you’re covered. I’ll pay a lot for that peace of mind.

I've owned both a Toyota and a Hyundai and honestly the Elantra has been as reliable as my old Corolla. A lot of it, I think, is to do with how well you maintain the car. Regular oil changes and maintaining the schedule are a long way.

Hyundai’s reputation might be improving reliability, but the resale value still takes a hit. If you’re planning on selling the car a few years down the road, this is something to keep in mind.

I work at a dealership, and we see a lot less problems with Elantras than we do with some other models. The vast majority of horror stories you hear online are the vocal minority.
Let's compare Creta N Line to other sporty compact SUVs like not even the Volkswagen Taigun GT in this regard.

Pure performance belongs to the Taigun GT with its 1.5 TSI engine. It has the feel of a hot hatch in SUV clothing. The Creta N Line is more sporty than the normal Creta, but it’s still more comfortable.

I'd go with the Creta N Line. It's better all round and there are more features and space. While the Taigun may be better to drive day to day, the Creta is the easier car to switch into everyday.

They're going after different buyers. The Taigun GT is for those who want to drive and the Creta N Line is for those who want to be driven in style.

I have driven both and I would say the Taigun GT is more special from behind the wheel. But the Creta N Line is good, it just doesn’t quite have that same connected feel that the VW does.

It really boils down to what you want. Inside, the Creta N Line feels better tech and more premium. But the driver's choice, the Taigun GT, feels a bit bare bones in comparison.
