2025 Hyundai Elantra Review

 What's New for the 2025 Hyundai Elantra?

The 2025 Hyundai Elantra continues to lead the compact sedan category with bold design, reliable performance, and exceptional value—perfect for navigating Chicago's urban streets and expressways. Following a major refresh in 2024, the 2025 model carries over with no changes, offering the same dynamic styling and smart tech that local drivers love.

Under the hood, Elantra buyers can choose from two gas engine options or a hybrid variant, depending on the trim. SE, SEL, and Limited trims feature a 147-horsepower 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive, and a smooth-shifting CVT. The sportier N Line trim delivers 201 horsepower from a turbocharged 1.6L engine paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. A hybrid model is also available, offering increased fuel efficiency for eco-conscious Chicago drivers.

The front fascia features a bold lower grille, angular LED headlights, and a sharply sculpted hood that flows into aerodynamic side creases.
