Hyundai unveiled the redesigned 2011 Elantra at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Elantra features a ‘Fluidic Sculpture’ design with four-door coupe styling.
The range-topping Limited boasts heated leather seats (front and rear), air conditioning, and a 172-watt audio system with iPod/USB/Bluetooth connectivity. Other options include passive entry and GPS navigation.
Under the hood, power comes from a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine which produces 148 hp (110 kW / 150 PS) and 131 lb-ft (177 Nm) of torque. It is mated to standard six-speed manual transmission (a six-speed automatic is optional), which gives the car a hybrid-like fuel economy rating of 29 mpg city / 40 mpg highway.
On sale later this year, the Elantra will be priced from $14,830.
