    Thinking of buying the 2021 Hyundai Elantra Preferred?

    CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2021 Hyundai Elantra Preferred before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2021 Hyundai Elantra Preferred is a big decision; here is the information we have.

    Recalls and complaints

    NHTSA has 161 owner complaints on file, mostly about forward collision avoidance, electrical system and unknown or other. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

    Reading the spec sheet

    It is powered by the 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. 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.

    Rated at 7.6 L/100 km combined, it needs around 23 litres for a 300 km round trip. Driving 300 km costs roughly $35.34 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    A good match for

    It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

    What to expect from the Elantra

    It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. With 396 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Elantra on your commute before you commit to it.

    Choosing the right one

    If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Compare the Preferred with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

    What it costs to run

    Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond 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.
