What are the four modes of the seventh-generation Elantra?
2 Answers
The Elantra has only three driving modes, not four. The driving modes include Sport mode, Eco mode, and Standard/Comfort mode. The specific details of the seventh-generation Elantra are as follows: 1. Dimensions: The body dimensions of the seventh-generation Elantra are (length/width/height): 4680/1810/1415 (mm), with a wheelbase of 2720 (mm). The interior space is considered the best in its class, thanks to its short front overhang and long wheelbase design. 2. Powertrain: The seventh-generation Elantra is equipped with Hyundai's Smartstream next-generation powertrain system, offering two powertrain options: a 1.5L engine paired with a CVT transmission (maximum power of 84.5 kW, maximum torque of 143.9 N·m, and a combined fuel consumption of 4.9 L/100 km) and a 240TGDi engine paired with a 7DCT transmission (maximum power of 103 kW, maximum torque of 211 N·m, and a combined fuel consumption of 5.2 L/100 km).
The four driving modes of the 7th-generation Elantra really opened my eyes. The ECO mode is my go-to for daily commutes—it optimizes engine output and significantly saves fuel in city traffic, cutting nearly 1 liter per 100 km. SPORT mode delivers an exhilarating acceleration with quick throttle response, making highway overtakes effortless and boosting safety. COMFORT mode offers a softer chassis tuning, ensuring a smooth ride even on bumpy roads during family trips. SMART mode is the most thoughtful, automatically sensing my habits and switching between the three modes, making it easy even for new drivers. Having driven this car for over a year, I find switching modes incredibly convenient—just a button press on the steering wheel—balancing fuel efficiency with fun. I recommend adjusting modes based on weather; for example, use COMFORT in rainy conditions for better stability and to avoid skidding.
