I loved the car but HATE the dealership (Northwest Hyundai 290/1960)

I liked the vehicle but I don’t recommend doing business with Northwest Hyundai dealership. Bad business

Lots of improvements, but also some downsides

Overall, this model feels more refined than my 2023 version, with better responsiveness, a quieter ride, improved suspension, and a nicer sound system. However, several convenience features have been removed or downgraded, and there are a few frustrating issues such as random HDA slowdowns, interior rattles, and occasional starting problems. It feels like some compromises were made to keep the vehicle reasonably priced, but I still think some of the removed features should have remained.

sound system isnt great

1 star for the sound system as I can listen to local radio while driving. But that's it. I live in the mountains in upstate NY and internet is not always available when i'm driving, so I cannot connect to my apple play unless i'm in my own garage on my own wifi.

I think the car is pretty nice. Could use some updates like push to start for the base model even. And maybe a couple more storage places but overall a nice car with great gas mileage

After a month, we are generally pleased.

Going from a 2019 Accent to this new Elantra was quite a leap upwards. Going from a simple dashboard to the high-end display is taking some getting used -to, such as the a/c and defogger controls which require taking my eyes off the road as opposed to simply turning a dial to set a fan speed or temperature.The lane- drifting warning is simply annoying. I do like the driver- side warning. Pluses: ride is smooth and quiet. Fuel economy is very good.The car is roomy, seating comfy, trunk has plenty of room, and all- round visibility expansive. A common complaint between my wife and I is the indicator: my 2019 Accent dash showed both total mileage and current trip mileage , and did not reset after every stop as does the current car- it made it easier to tell how many miles we drove on every given day; on the new car the mileage meter resets at every longish stop.So, unless one has a trip log (;or tablet and pencil, it is a It less convenient to record mpg or time distance between layovers. (;Possibly nit- picking here.) Nicely styled car- but I cannot help but thing all those sharp fascia ( bumper) designs would mean an expense repair of a parking-lot bump. Overall, though, We are happy with purchase( but I miss my Accent)
