Great for a daily commute
I purchased the 2024 Elantra SEL as a commuter car. The car drives smoothly and gets great gas mileage. There are some unexplained rattle noises in the door panel and a lack of interior cabin storage. Having zero cup holders in the back seat is a big negative… My previous (2010) Elantra had an in-dash storage area and rear cup holders in the back seat. I feel that this was a step backwards in design. While these things are inconvenient, overall I am satisfied with the vehicle. There are many safety features I am happy to have, and for the price, there is a lot of technology included. I’m really hoping the reliability of this car matches that of my previous Elantra. It lasted just shy of 300,000 miles.
