The 2011 Hyundai Elantra Touring is a sporty and practical variant of the popular Elantra sedan. The Touring is based on the European i30, and carries over its handsome styling. Hyundai's hatchback version of the Elantra compact car competes with cars such as the Dodge Caliber, Toyota Matrix, Mazda3 hatchback and Nissan Versa. Standard safety equipment includes electronic stability control, traction control, four-wheel anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring, active front head restraints, and six airbags. Elantra Touring is equipped like the SE sedan. Touring features under-floor storage in the rear, a cooled glovebox, and cupholders in the rear armrest. Need to haul larger items? No problem, simply fold down the split 60/40 rear seat. The Premium-Sport Package features 17-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, and a power sunroof. Inside, the front seats are quite comfortable, with good bolstering, and the standard cloth is smooth though unexciting. There's an especially large dead pedal to support the driver's left foot. The Touring model's seats have a premium cloth.
The Elantra Touring features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine yielding 138 horsepower. A five-speed manual transmission is standard and offers the four-speed automatic as an option. The Hyundai Elantra Touring offers spirited handling with predictable response and calm confidence. The Elantra rides softer than some of the sportier cars in the class, and the ride is good. Overall, it's a great fit for someone who just wants good transportation without attitude. The Hyundai Elantra Touring gets up to speed pretty well. It provides a smooth and stable ride with a quiet cabin - making it ideal for highway driving.
The design of the new 2011 Elantra Touring isn't just for looks, it contributes to a low coefficient of drag for improved fuel economy and less road noise. The longer wheelbase - 106.3 inches, the longest in its class - allows for maximum interior space. And a wide stance increases overall stability, and confidence. The Touring model has a wagonlike body style, a slightly longer wheelbase, different styling and enhanced chassis tuning.
Inside the '11 Elantra Touring cabin, there's plenty of room for all occupants and their cargo. The Touring is almost more of a midsize wagon than a compact hatchback, as it can hold up to 65 cubic feet of stuff with the rear seats lowered. Air conditioning, power windows and door locks, remote keyless entry with alarm, and an extremely accommodating adjustable driver seat are among a surplus of features that have become Hyundai?s signature. There's also steering wheel mounted cruise control (standard A/T), heated dual power side mirrors and a six speaker 172 watt audio system with XM Satellite Radio and iPod/USB and auxiliary input jacks. Storage compartments are plentiful.
ConclusionsThe 2011 Hyundai Elantra Touring is offered in GLS and SE trims. Standard equipment on the GLS includes steel wheels, air-conditioning, a tilt steering wheel, power accessories, a 60/40 split-folding rear seat and a CD/MP3 audio system. Overall, if versatility and utility are at the top of your list, the Hyundai Elantra Touring is a top choice among small hatchbacks or wagons, especially considering its feature content, extended warranty and overall drivability.
