If you are looking to buy a used Hyundai Elantra, make sure you do your homework first. The Hyundai Elantra was introduced in the early 1990s. In the beginning, they were not held in high regard.

They have become more reliable and better equipped with standard features, like air conditioning, cruise control, and satelitte radio. Elantras is have a 2.0-liter inline, and 138 horsepower. It has scored points for it's brisk acceleration. Both a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual transmission are available. Sunroofs and leather upholstery are now also available. It is now considered a good competitor in its class, and a good deal for its reasonable price tag. If you see a used Hyundai Elantra for sale, and are in the market for a used sedan, you may want to take it into consideration. Many used car buyers like to buy Hyundais because they come with extended warranties. These warranties can really help put a used car shopper's mind at ease.
Elantra's are small sedans, but many Elantra drivers report the interior is surprisingly roomy for such a small car. The leg room in both the front and back seat is better than expected. There are also plenty of interior storage spots. It is recommended that if you are looking to buy a used Elantra, you should try to buy one made in 2001 or later. It was around 2001 that Elantras made major steps forward in safety, standard features and reliability. Overall, if you are looking for a used small sedan, an Elantra could be a solid choice for you.
