2014 Hyundai Elantra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	This is really not a con. If they offered the option of a front passenger power seat with lumbar as an option, I along with many others would likely opt for it. see full Hyundai Elantra review
