How to Use the Cruise Control in the Elantra?
2 Answers
To use the cruise control in the Elantra: 1. Press the CRUISE button on the steering wheel to activate the cruise control system; 2. The cruise control indicator light will illuminate, then accelerate to your desired speed. The Elantra is a new mid-size sedan from Beijing Hyundai, equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 95 kW and a maximum torque of 157 Nm. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 6-speed automatic transmission. The car's exterior dimensions are 4610mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1450mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.
As a driver who frequently takes long-distance trips, my experience with the Hyundai Elantra's cruise control has made me trust this feature a lot. First, get your speed up to at least 50 km/h on the highway, then press the cruise control activation button on the steering wheel—the system will activate and display on the dashboard. Once you've accelerated to your desired speed, tap the set button to lock in the current speed, and the car will maintain it automatically. You can fine-tune the speed in increments of about 5 km/h using the +/- buttons. Important note: Don’t use it in heavy traffic; it’s best enabled on straight highways. Hitting the brakes or pressing the cancel button will deactivate it immediately. To resume, just press the resume button—it’s very convenient and saves energy. I recommend new drivers practice a few times on empty roads. Not only does it save fuel, but it also makes driving more relaxed. However, never rely on it to the point of ignoring road conditions—safety should always come first.
