    Following the launch of the new Sonata and a bunch of new SUVs and crossovers comes the new 2021 Elantra from Hyundai. It joins the compact saloon segment that already boasts the likes of the ever so popular Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic and Mazda 3. Image Credit: Supplied

    Can the new Elantra stand out with its improved dimensions and completely overhauled interior tech? Image Credit: Supplied

    Even though buyers are switching to compact crossovers it is good to see Hyundai still feels there is a need for its two best-selling saloons - the Sonata and the Elantra. Image Credit: Supplied

    Removing the pointy, stubby looks of the current car, Hyundai replaces them with a more flowing, elegant design partially inspired by the Sonata. Image Credit: Supplied

    There is a new platform underpinning the Elantra and it stretches the wheelbase by almost an inch, and adds 2in overall length. The new Elantra gets wider and lower, with shorter front and rear overhangs to give it a new look. Image Credit: Supplied

    According to the carmaker, the newbie achieves a “four-door coupe aesthetic” and whether or not you agree it's safe to say that front end is now properly aggressive looking... Image Credit: Supplied

    But, the biggest leap forward has to be in the technology department because the Elantra now boasts a plethora of new features... Image Credit: Supplied

    Base models come equipped with an 8.0in touchscreen, with standard wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto – a first for the segment. Image Credit: Supplied

    Higher spec models get a larger 10.3in touchscreen that pairs with a 10.3in digital gauge cluster with the two displays sitting under one piece of glass. They feature multiple configurations, and support connecting two phones at once via Bluetooth... Image Credit: Supplied

    It also packs an improved range of safety equipment including standard automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, and driver attention monitoring system. Optional kit includes blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. The Elantra also implements the digital key technology from the Sonata, which allows control over many of the car’s functions from your phone. Image Credit: Supplied

    But the really big news is that Hyundai will offer an Elantra Hybrid for the first time. It uses a 1.6-litre inline-four paired with an electric motor, putting out a combined 139 horsepower and 179Nm of torque. The non-hybrid model retains the 2.0-litre inline-four and continuously variable transmission making with 147 horses and 264Nm. A more potent N-Line variant could be coming soon too...
