Add a few options and it gets very close to the $30k bracket which puts it in competition with some much more refined machines.

Without the federal tax credit and state sales tax deduction, this car would have been almost out of our budget range.

Comparing a base Elantra to a base Mazda 3 and Honda Civic the features and options you get in your base sticker price for an Elantra you would have to pay extra to get the same options in a Mazda 3 or Honda Civic.<br />
