Did you know that the Hyundai Elantra used to be classified as a compact sedan? Beginning with the fifth generation (2011-2016), the Elantra grew long enough to officially be labeled as a midsize sedan by the EPA. This generation also launched with a refreshed 1.8L standard engine—and by 2016, a new Value Edition trim was introduced.
2016 Hyundai Elantra Engine Options
The 2016 Elantra SE, Value Edition, and Limited trims all come standard with a 1.8L four-cylinder engine at 145 hp, as well as a six-speed manual transmission; a six-speed automatic is optional.
The Sport trim, on the other hand, receives a more powerful 2.0L four-cylinder engine at 173 hp. This engine is paired with a sport-tuned manual or automatic six-speed transmission. Every 2016 Elantra is offered exclusively with front-wheel drive.
2016 Hyundai Elantra Interior

Speaking of the rear row, it's best-suited for children—but still spacious enough for adult riders when the need arises.

I would recommend carmax to everyone, after having bad experiences at some other dealerships I needed a very positive experience & Carmax Ocala team went above and beyond for me with the most amazing experience I’ve have had the pleasure of purchasing a vehicle alongside with my mother being with me.
I am a 21 year old female without kids. I do a lot of driving every single day, at least 50 miles. My hyundai gets great gas mileage and is really comfortable to ride in for long road trips. This car has not given me any problems since the day I got it. I took it out to the mountains a while back during winter with ice on the ground. The car handled the mountain climb very well and I still got 29 miles to the gallon even thought j was in 4th or 3rd gear the whole trip. The way home I get about 35 mpg. This car is not a very fast car, but has plenty of pickup to get up and around the person in front of you if neccessary. The sound system is awesome in the car stock.
I love this car! It’s very roomy for legs in the front and back seats. The seats themselves are also comfortable and large. It’s spacious interior but the body is not overly large. Large trunk and can push down the back seats for larger trunk space. Easy to maneuver and windows large enough around vehicle to see all angles.
