The Elantra provides everything you need: interior space, standard safety features, fuel efficiency, responsive handling and refined ride, superior quality and most of all, unbeatable value.

The Elantra's charismatic exterior design attracts attention. A confident wide stance maintains its compactness where it matters. Simple, sleek lines support the Elantra's unmistakable elegance and modern styling. And available roof racks is just one way to customize your Elantra to the level of versatility that suits you.


Interior

The Elantra GL with Sport Package, GLS and Limited offer the convenience of steering wheel-mounted audio controls while the Limited model has the added benefit of telescoping adjustment.
Enjoy a comfortable seat no matter where you sit. Adjustable headrests come standard on all models (two on L, and three on GL, GL with Sport Package, GLS and Limited).
With more total interior volume and trunk space than Corolla and Civic the only thing truly compact about Elantra is its price.
Let the comfort of heated front seats welcome you on those cold mornings. They come standard on GL, GL with Sport Package, GLS and Limited models.
Air conditioning keeps you cool all summer long. It’s optional on the Elantra L (pre-wired) and comes standard on all other models
A 60/40 split fold-down rear seat allows you to easily carry passengers, cargo or both.

The Elantra boasts serious interior and cargo space - amongst the biggest in its class with 3,174L. Available heated front seats, leather interior, remote keyless entry and automatic climate control prove the Elantra's attention to comfort and convenience is as discerning as its attention to detail.


Mechanical

The 2009 Elantra is powered by a 2.0 L, 16-valve, DOHC, 4-cylinder inline engine with Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) and 138 horsepower.
The Elantra’s fully independent front suspension with stabilizer bar and multi-link rear suspension with stabilizer bar ensure you enjoy a smooth ride every time you drive.
The Elantra L, GL and GL with Sport Package come equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission with overdrive, while both GLS and Limited come with a standard 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.
Continuously Variable Valve Timing delivers maximum fuel efficiency while meeting the demands of real-word highway driving.
The GLS, Sport and Limited models feature 4-wheel disc brakes and an ABS system with Electronic Brake Force Distribution and Brake Assist.

 


Safety

The Elantra’s ultra-safe body design includes a safety cage construction with body-side reinforcements, steel side-impact door beams and built-in front and rear crumple zones.
Parents will appreciate the LATCH system for easy child-seat installation and rear child safety locks.
The Elantra GL with Sport Package and GLS models come with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) while the Limited adds Brake Assist (BA).
All models come standard with dual front airbags. GLS and Limited also have the added safety of standard front seat-mounted side-impact and rear roof-mounted side-curtain airbags.
Front seat active head restraints are part of the safety package on the Elantra GLS and Limited. Utilizing the occupant’s weight thrust onto the backrest when the vehicle is rear-ended, the headrest automatically shifts forward, reducing any injuries.
