My Hyundai Elantra was a purchase that I have never regretted. I love the different options for music, the MPG, and the sturdiness of the car. The car is compact but comes with a back-up camera, which is extremely useful, especially in busy supermarket parking lots. The back seats fold down if you need to extend the trunk, which makes it easier to transport bikes, furniture, and other bulky items. I do wish that the seats were able to fold down more into the car, instead of at an angle, because that does limit the space allowed for the trunk.

It is a standard car with very little extras. It comes with Bluetooth, which is a plus, but aside from that, it doesn't have really much else internally. The sound system is lackluster, the seats are cloth, the interface is made of plastic and looks very cheap. Everything about the interior of the car is boring and lacks features. In terms of the driving experience, the handling is very good. Turning feels smooth and reliable, but accelerating is a bit of chore. It takes a little bit of time for me to accelerate at lights as opposed to my other cars. It has an eco mode, which is great, but it doesn't really end up saving me any money. Its MPG is remarkable, however. It gets around 35 MPG highway very reliably, and on long trips, I've averaged about 40 MPG on highway. In terms of reliability, it is a little bit weak. I've had the car battery die on me once already within the year from driving just three times a week. For its price though, I don't think you'll get a better value. It's affordable and it does its job.
