The 2015 Hyundai Elantra has a sophisticated, but affordable style. The exterior is curvy and sleek. The interior is unique and sporty. It has performed well. I had heard that the lack of horsepower is an issue to some drivers. I believe it has enough get up and go to maintain safety driving in Dallas.

This car is incredibly quiet when driving. The engine is not heard over music, the ride is exceptionally smooth, and the outside noises are kept at a minimum. The seating is adjustable just to my liking, perfect for long or short trips, and easy to manipulate when someone else needs to drive. The leg room is phenomenal compared to my previous vehicle. There is plenty of space for a grown adult male to stretch his legs in the front seat, and for someone shorter like myself there is an abundance of leg room. There is plenty of room on the floor to store groceries, bags, or purses but with the size of the trunk that is not even necessary. At the dealership when the trunk was being shown, we all laughed in unison at the sheer size saying "You could fit three people in there". To this day, I can fit groceries, baby supplies, school supplies, and work items without having to remove a single item. The speaker quality is amazing. The car came with Sirius XM, and to listen to the radio with perfect sound quality is exactly what a music lover like me needed! The ability to customize the speaker settings with the bass, treble, and sound makes every drive worth the drive just for the radio. The windshield wipers also provide great coverage with the rain. Unlike most cars who have a huge triangular spot where the windshield wipers avoid hitting one another, these are designed in a way to not hit one another, but also remove this spot that typically does not get wiped when it rains. The rear seating is spacious for all the people who ride along in the car. The middle seat chest belt is so much better than a lap belt, providing a much safer alternative. The exterior design of the car is also a great look, with a sleek design and four doors. The car also gives the option to track trips and gas mileage, so it is easier to estimate how far you can go without having to refill. Another plus is that the final bar of gas on the display definitely lasts you long enough to get to a gas station (haha). The only true complaints would be the fact the A/C does not get as cold as my previous vehicle. It is cold, but not "ice cold" and takes a little while to kick up. Because of having to run the A/C for longer for it to kick in, and having to keep it running to stay cold, the gas goes down quicker than expected. The car still gets better gas mileage than most cars, however the A/C does eat up the gas much quicker. I realized this with winter vs summer gas mileage.
