The 2017 Hyundai Elantra

The 2017 Hyundai Elantra comes at a small compact price, but with BIG style! It's new to the market, but already making waves and winning awards. The newest Elantra received the Biggest Bang for the Buck Award from the Greater Atlanta Automotive Media Association. Featuring a more upright grille, vertical turn signals, LED running lamps, and HID headlamps the '17 Hyundai Elantra is indeed the more stylish choice if you're even considering a Nissan Sentra.

The chiselled hood and body sides, in addition to 17 inch alloy wheels give the '17 Elantra a smooth, suave look that's unmatched in its class.
