2 Answers
The three modes of the Elantra are: Normal Mode, Sport Mode, and Eco Mode. The Eco driving mode is further divided into Active Eco driving mode and Non-Active Eco driving mode. Taking the 2020 Elantra as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of: length 4610mm, width 1800mm, height 1450mm, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and a curb weight of 1319kg. The 2020 model features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 130PS, a maximum torque of 211Nm, and a maximum power of 95.6kW, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving for over ten years and often drive a Hyundai Elantra, so I'm quite familiar with its three driving modes. The ECO mode is the economy mode, which is very fuel-efficient and perfect for city driving in traffic jams. When you switch to SPORT mode, the car becomes more responsive, making overtaking more exhilarating—ideal for highways or when you want some excitement. The NORMAL mode is the standard setting, offering a balanced and comfortable driving experience. My favorite is the ECO mode because it saves a lot on fuel, especially with current high gas prices. Switching between modes is straightforward—just use the steering wheel buttons or the center console controls—and you'll naturally feel the differences while driving. It's important to maintain your car regularly, and I recommend that owners try switching modes to experience the changes in handling instead of sticking to just one. In short, each mode has its own advantages, so just choose based on road conditions and your mood.
