In a short space of time, the 2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid has established itself as a market leader in the hybrid compact sedan segment. When you consider the number of superior characteristics the car possesses, it is easy to see why it is highly thought of. Below are six of our favorite features.
6 Favorite Features of the 2023 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid
Hybrid Efficiency
A key reason to choose a hybrid car over a gas-only equivalent is the improved fuel efficiency offered, and here, the Elantra Hybrid excels. The combination of the 1.6L, 4-cylinder engine with a 32 kW electric motor and 240-volt lithium-ion battery provides you with between 49 and 53 mpg of city driving and 52 to 56 mpg of highway use, so visits to the gas station are far less frequent.
Regenerative Braking
It is not just the engine that charges the battery in the Elantra Hybrid design but also the braking system, too. The electrical charging system receives additional input from the kinetic energy produced during the braking action, which is converted into electricity and stored in the battery, becoming available for driving use.
Battery Warranty
With the high-capacity battery performing such a key role in the hybrid system, it is crucial to have peace of mind when it comes to its reliability. That is why Hyundai provides a 100,000-mile or 10-year warranty against any material, manufacturing, or factory installation defects of the lithium-ion battery, allowing you worry-free motoring.
Digital Duo Display
As well as mechanical excellence, innovative technology is at the forefront of the Elantra Hybrid. Particularly eye-catching, depending on the model, is the dual digital display. Two 10.25-inch adjoining displays provide state-of-the-art gauge and instrument readings on one and infotainment and navigation on the other, which connect seamlessly to your smart Apple or Android devices.
Digital Keys
In addition to the high-tech displays, there is also digital key technology available. Using Near-Field Communication (NFC), a tap or a wave of your smartphone will allow you entry and the ability to start your engine. The system is highly secure and will only work with correctly paired devices, which require the specific NFC card for the car and connection to your MyHyundai account to be activated.
Hyundai SmartSense
Safety is also at the heart of the Elantra Hybrid, and with the addition of Hyundai SmartSense, you have some of the best active safety technology available. Highlights include advanced systems such as Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with a Pedestrian Detection system to limit the possibility of accidents.
These are just a few favorite features included on various models in the 2023 Elantra Hybrid range, but there are many others. To get a proper perspective of what the car can offer, you should get behind the wheel and see it close up.
