Strong value proposition
At this price point the 2023 Hyundai Elantra is difficult to beat on pure value. Generous standard equipment, solid reliability record, and depreciation that won't sting too badly.

Surprisingly fun to drive
Bought for practicality, expected dull. Wrong. Chassis is genuinely sorted — accurate steering, good body control, eager engine. Makes you look forward to driving.

Boot swallowed everything we packed, rear passenger space was comfortable even for a ten-hour day, and the fuel stops were infrequent. Kids slept most …

Solid choice — does most things very well
The 2023 Hyundai Elantra hits a sweet spot for me. Refined enough for the motorway, economical enough for commuting, and practical enough for family duties. I'd have rated it five stars but the infotainment system has a frustrating habit of not connecting to my phone immediately on start-up. Softwar…
