    Thinking of buying the 2021 Hyundai Elantra Essential?

    We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Hyundai Elantra Essential for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 2021 Hyundai Elantra Essential? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

    What to check on the Elantra

    NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

    Reading the spec sheet

    The 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    By the EPA's combined rating of 7.6 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 23 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $11.78 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,150 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Who rents the Elantra

    It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

    Space, size and seats

    Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Luggage space is 396 litres, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Try before you buy

    If the Elantra is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Elantra for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

    Choosing the right one

    Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

    The cost of driving it

    At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.78 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
