Modern Elantra battery model is 55D23l. Taking the Elantra 2021 GLS Leading Edition as an example, the body length, width, and height are: 4680 mm, 1810 mm, 1415 mm, the wheelbase is 2720 mm, the fuel tank capacity is 47 liters, the body structure is a 4-door 5-seater sedan, and the curb weight is 1208 kg. The Elantra 2021 GLS Leading Edition is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 84.5 kW, a maximum torque of 143.9 Nm, and a maximum power speed of 6300 rpm.
The battery model for the Hyundai Elantra typically varies by year and engine version. In the models I've driven, the common type is H5 (Group 47), with a capacity ranging between 60-70Ah. As a daily driver, I always check the vehicle manual or the original battery label to confirm the specific model—my 2019 Elantra uses a 70Ah AGM battery. If the manual isn't handy, it's safer to visit a 4S dealership for a professional scan or check the official website using the VIN code. After all, installing the wrong size battery can be embarrassing. Signs of battery aging are obvious: difficulty starting, dimming headlights—these are clear signals to replace it promptly. I usually replace mine every 3-5 years and recommend opting for OEM brands like Exide. Routine maintenance is crucial: avoid prolonged inactivity in winter, check monthly with a voltmeter to prevent discharge, and upgrading to an AGM battery is more durable for vehicles with frequent start-stop systems, saving about 5% on fuel. In short, the model varies by individual—just double-check the manual to avoid mistakes.
