2016--2011 Hyundai Elantra Available Features: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2017 0 Drove the Hybrid version. Since the battery takes up a large space in the back, they deleted the spare, and give you a spray can of goop, and a 12volt air compressor. ok, end of test drive. The goop and the air compressor would help you limp home if you had a puncture. If you ripped the sidewall, or broke the wheel, you are staying where you are. Most mamufacturers are including at least a fake spare (donut), good for 100 miles or so. No spare, no deal. I have been stranded before. see full Hyundai Elantra review
