2017 Hyundai Elantra Photo Gallery

Upscale detailing to Hyundai's hexagonal grille. Especially elegant in black.

Of course, unless you're only a few inches tall the Elantra Sport will look more like this.

More mature and refined than the 2011-2016 Elantra, but less swoopy and distinctive.

This is just the regular Sentra SR, not the SR Turbo, but the two look the same. Which isn't good.

The new Elantra's least attractive angle. Too much front overhang and too much body over the wheels

Shift a few degrees to the rear, and the Elantra looks far better than when viewed from the side.

Highs: the red stitching and metal pedals. Low: the plainly styled hard plastic door panels.

The Sentra's interior has more artful curves, but lacks sporty details and feels cheaper.

Instrument panels don't get much more straightforward.

Good ergonomics. Simple controls.

Much better comfort and support than the Sentra's driver seat. Plus red stitching.

Decent room and comfort for a sedan of this size.

The trunk? Also decent. Typical of compact sedans, the rear seat folds.

The engine cover actually harms aesthetics.

1.6T engine much more interesting with the cover removed. Performs better than the Nissan 1.6T.
