What is the ground clearance of the Elantra?
1 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of the Elantra is 160 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the Elantra refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. A higher ground clearance improves the Elantra's off-road capability, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. The Elantra is a typical South Korean car. Its dimensions are 4680 mm in length, 1810 mm in width, and 1415 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720 mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the Elantra's ground clearance is not static—it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the Elantra's load variations. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and road conditions. For urban driving with well-paved roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. If the vehicle is frequently driven in rural areas or on poor road conditions, a higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage.
