| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
Feels solid. Much better materials and general build quality, particularly in the interior than is competitors. |
| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 6-speed automatic FWD |
Gaps at joins interior and exterior are regular and not skewed of center. Doors have a solid sound when closed - rivals full-size autos. |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The dash is made of very nice soft plastic (which is very noticeable on these smaller cars). The doors all close with a solid "thud" and feel very durable. Leather seats are great. |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 120-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The car is extremely solid. The doors "thunk" like you would not expect from a small car. I got red leather seats, and it is actually pretty nice leather. For an $18000 car, I feel like I got a steal. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Everything fits well with no rattles or knocks.Yet. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
top quality materials were used in interior |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
No rattles, dash looks good. Doors have a solid sound when shut. Bolts on brake calipers do not look like they will rust weld making a brake change an afternoon job (pay attention GM). |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The quality is high overall in the interior in terms of materials used. The only exception is the beige interior. It stains way too easy, even with water! |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Body panel seams are tight and uniform. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
good for cheap car |

Just plain cheap look and feel |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 138-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The paint on these things is crap. All 3 Elantras I test drove had very thin paint. One 2004 had the clearcoat peeling of all over. The other two had tons of little scratches, presumably from automatic car wash. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 135-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
interior makes you not want to touch anything |
