2017 to 2020 Used Hyundai Elantra Buying Guide

When you buy a used Hyundai Elantra, you're getting a compact sedan that has always stood out for comfort, interior space, and reliability. There are many pre-owned Hyundai Elantra options on the market today, as this model has been around for a long time. It has also always been one of the best-selling compacts in its class, and that kind of success isn’t a coincidence. Buyers interested in a pre-owned compact sedan that delivers on every front as well as provides plenty of value will want to check out a pre-owned 2017 to 2020 Hyundai Elantra. Let’s take a look at what it has to offer.

Impressive performance and efficiency

The 2017 to 2020 Hyundai Elantra was powered by a single engine, a 2.0-litre four-cylinder with 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. This engine is known for three things: reliability, efficiency, and smoothness.

Reliability. This engine has been used by Hyundai for a very long time and it has proven its reliability time and time again. The Hyundai Elantra is one such example of this engine’s impressive durability, but regardless of the pre-owned Hyundai model you are buying, when you opt for a model with this 2.0-litre engine, you can rest easy.

Fuel economy. This 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine is one of the most fuel-efficient in its class and has been for a long time. When new, the Hyundai Elantra was the benchmark for efficiency, and little changes on the pre-owned market. A used Hyundai Elantra powered by this engine averages just 7.8 litres per 100 kilometres in the city, and 5.6 litres per 100 kilometres on the highway.  

Smoothness. You will notice this the first time you get behind the wheel of a pre-owned Hyundai Elantra. The engine is very smooth and very refined, and the Intelligent Variable automatic gearbox is buttery, even silky. It’s always an enjoyable affair to drive a pre-owned Elantra with this engine and gearbox combination.

The interior space of used Hyundai Elantra models is another distinctive feature. Despite its compact size, the Hyundai Elantra still offers 408 liters of cargo space, making it one of the most spacious sedans in its class. Hyundai Elantra models from 2017 to 2020 also offered a lot of interior space for rear seat passengers.
