Sweeping across the center console is a 10.25-inch colour touchscreen with excellent graphics and a sharpness and clarity that should embarrass Toyota.

As a package, the 2021 Hyundai Elantra is complete. […] The new model has a striking design, refined ride, and attractive cabin to go along with added space and high-tech features.
Hyundai SmartSense™
Our suite of available Hyundai SmartSense™ safety features include a range of camera, radar and motion detection technologies to provide you with added peace of mind.
Using the front-mounted camera and light detection technology, available High Beam Assist provides an extra level of convenience by automatically switching between high and low beams when traffic is detected ahead.
Back into a parking spot with confidence. This available feature will provide an audible warning if the rear of the vehicle gets too close to an object. As the vehicle approaches closer to the object, the warning sound will increase in frequency. If the vehicle is not stopped, the system can apply automatic braking to help avoid hitting the object.
This available safety innovation detects rapid closing distances to the vehicle ahead and pedestrians in your path. If a potential forward collision is detected, audible and visual warning notifications will alert the driver. If the driver does not react to avoid impact, the system can apply emergency braking under certain conditions.
This available safety innovation detects rapid closing distances to the vehicle ahead, pedestrians in your path and, when equipped, cyclists. If a potential forward collision is detected, audible and visual warning notifications will alert the driver. If the driver does not react to avoid impact, the system can apply emergency braking under certain conditions.
This advanced technology also includes an available junction-turning component to help make left turns at an intersection safer.
When actively engaged with both Adaptive Cruise Control with traffic stop and go and Lane Following Assist, this semi-autonomous driving technology helps keep you centred in your lane and travelling at a safe distance behind the vehicle ahead, can help ensure you drive at the specified speed limit and can also automatically slow down the speed of the vehicle before entering a highway curve section for extra safety.
The available Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system takes basic cruise control to the next level of convenience. Set your pre-determined speed and distance to the vehicle ahead, and ACC will automatically adjust your speed to maintain the set distance. The system will even operate in stop-and-go traffic, bringing the vehicle to a complete stop when necessary and then resuming automatically.
As the engine is turned off, a visual warning in the instrument cluster and audible alert reminds you to check the rear seats before exiting.
Available Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance-Assist not only uses radar to detect when a vehicle is in the driver’s blind spot, but will also help avoid a collision by gently applying brake power on the opposite tire to help deter an unsafe lane change.
When reversing out of areas with low visibility, this available system warns the driver if a vehicle approaches from either side. It can also apply the brakes automatically under certain conditions if no action is taken.
Designed to detect the onset of driver fatigue, this available system will monitor driver input and issue a visual and audible alert if fatigue is sensed, suggesting a driving break.
Start drifting outside of your lane without signalling and this available system is designed to inform you with audible and visual cues. If no action is taken, Lane Keeping Assist can apply corrective steering assistance to help keep the vehicle within the lane markings.
Using the front-view camera to detect lane markers on the road, this standard feature assists the driver’s steering to help keep the vehicle centred inside the lane.
When a vehicle approaching from behind in the adjacent lane is detected, this feature warns passengers in advance to keep them from stepping out onto the road when it is dangerous.
