The 6th generation of this compact sedan is set to reaffirm the company’s position as the region’s second biggest car maker, combining dynamic styling and high quality materials at an affordable price point. 

 

“Since its arrival in 1990, the Elantra has proven a big hit with customers across Africa and the Middle East thanks to its sporty looks, high standards of equipment and premium build quality.

The large hexagonal grille is paired with slim and sporty headlights for an energetic look, while its clean surfaces build on the active stance of the model. 

 

Set to build on the model's proud heritage, while setting new standards as a world-class compact-size sedan, the All-new Elantra is 20 millimetres longer and 25 millimetres wider than its predecessor and delivers a spacious interior. The body structure has been designed to boost durability and rigidity, incorporating 53% more advanced high-strength steel which is 32% bigger than the previous Elantra.

 

The All-new Elantra will be available from launch with two engines, the 2.0 MPI and 1.6 MPI.
