What are the dimensions of the Elantra?
2 Answers
The Elantra boasts an expansive size with a length of 4542mm, width of 1775mm, and height of 1490mm, resulting in an ultra-long wheelbase of 2650mm. Elantra Trunk Capacity: This design makes the Elantra not only suitable for family use but also gives it the dimensions of a business sedan, making it the model with the largest passenger space in its class. The 475L trunk capacity provides ample storage space for both family trips and business travel. Power and Handling: Similar to the previous generation Elantra, the current model still employs 1.6L and 1.8L engines, but they have been recalibrated. The 1.6L variant uses Hyundai's CVVT engine, delivering a maximum power of 82kW at 6000rpm and a peak torque of 145.1Nm at 4500rpm. The 1.8L model is equipped with Hyundai's DOHC engine. This engine can unleash a maximum power of 96kW at 6000rpm and a peak torque of 162Nm at 4500rpm.
I used to drive an Elantra, and I remember its dimensions quite clearly. The car is 4510 mm long, 1765 mm wide, and 1470 mm tall, which is quite common for a compact car. Parking isn't too difficult, and it's easy to navigate through narrow alleys in the city. With a wheelbase of 2650 mm, the rear seats are quite spacious—my 1.8-meter-tall friend had more than two fists of knee room from the front seats. The trunk has good depth and can fit two large suitcases plus several backpacks. Compared to a car like the Sylphy, the Elantra is slightly lower but more agile in handling. It's perfectly suitable for daily family use, like picking up kids or weekend trips with luggage.
