2012 North America Car of the Year

2012 North America Car of the Year

Fifty veteran automotive writers from the U.S. and Canada evaluated 30 cars, then voted. They rated Elantra above all the others. In 2009, Genesis won. Now it's Elantra's turn.

For years, we've been conditioned to accept boring compact cars. The 2012 Hyundai Elantra bucks convention in a big way with its distinctive "Wind Craft"-inspired shape. Style features like wraparound headlights, front fog lights, and muscular wheel arches give it a lower, sportier profile. This is a compact car like none before it.

The superbly designed interior gives you more space than the Toyota Corolla, the Honda Civic, and even the Nissan Maxima. In fact, the 2012 Hyundai Elantra has so much room that the government classifies it as a midsize car instead of a compact like Corolla or Civic. Elantra also has the most front leg room in its class.

A lightweight, high-tech engine helps the 2012 Hyundai Elantra achieve the best power-to-weight ratio in its class, and a class-leading standard fuel efficiency at 40 MPG, highway. That's better than the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla or any other competitor.
The 2012 Elantra breaks convention, and years of compact car complacency.

Hyundai Elantra Exterior

The 2012 Elantra bucks convention with a style that breaks free of the traditional compact car 'blah' factor.
Designed in Southern California, the Elantra integrates a sloping, coupe-like roofline and an increased wheelbase to give it a sporty, low profile that leaves its boxier competitors behind.
 

Hyundai Elantra Interior

With more interior space than the Toyota Corolla, the Honda Civic, and even the Nissan Maxima, the Elantra has plenty of room for premium features like front and rear heated seats- a compact segment first, leather seating surfaces and even a 360-Watt audio system.
 

Hyundai Elantra Performance

With 29 MPG city and 40 MPG highway, the 2012 Hyundai Elantra gets better standard gas mileage than the Honda Civic, the Toyota Corolla and even the Ford Focus.
The 6-speed manual or automatic transmission has been paired with a sophisticated 1.8L, 4-cylinder engine to also deliver seven percent greater horsepower than its predecessor.
 
Hyundai Elantra Interior Space   Hyundai Elantra Technology   Phoenix Hyundai Proximity Key

Interior Space

Intuitively designed around the driver, audio and climate controls are within easy reach. There's loads of leg room, and generous head and shoulder room for both the front- and rear-seat passengers—plus 14.8 cubic feet of cargo volume—which makes it ideal for long weekends. Special attention has also been paid to reduce NVH (Noise, Vibration & Harshness) which ensures a smooth and quiet ride.
 

Hyundai Elantra Technology

The Elantra defies stripped-down compact car tradition with standard iPod®/USB and auxiliary input jacks plus XM® Satellite Radio. The Limited adds available Proximity Key entry with electronic push button start while high-tech upgrades include 7-inch navigation system, Bluetooth® hands-free phone system with voice recognition, and even a rearview camera to help with parking and backing up.
 

Proximity Key

No more fumbling for the key in your pocket or purse. The Elantra recognizes your key fob and, with a push of a button on the door handle, immediately unlocks the door for you. Now you can get in, fasten your seatbelt, hit the push button start and go.
 
2012 Hyundai Elantra Limited   Real-time Content via Satellite   Phoenix Hyundai Navigation System

Elantra Limited

The Limited includes attractive bodycolor side mirrors with turn signal indicators that increase visibility and safety, a one-touch power tilt-and-slide sunroof with sliding sunshade, and 17-inch, 7-spoke alloy wheels that are not only a stylish addition, but also give you more rubber on the road.
 

Real-time Content via Satellite

Standard on all trims, you get over 170 commercial-free radio stations on XM Satellite Radio, while the available navigation system offers a trial subscription of XM Data Services such as XM NavTraffic for real-time traffic info, XM NavWeather, XM Sports and XM Stocks to keep you informed and in charge.
 

Navigation System

Available on the GLS and Limited, the navigation system with 7-inch screen makes it easy to get from A to B with voice recognition or interactive touchscreen. The system allows you to search for nearby businesses, such as gas stations, ATMs or restaurants.
 
Hyundai Integrated Bluetooth   Hyundai Rearview Camera   Phoenix Hyundai Elantra Performance

Integrated Bluetooth®

If you must talk while driving, please do it with your hands on the wheel. The Elantra's available Bluetooth® technology with phonebook transfer gives you hands-free access to your phone with a very handy voice-recognition control.
 

Rearview Camera

Available on all trim levels, the rearview camera is displayed on the central in-dash touchscreen, with guidelines that help direct you into tight spots and take the guesswork out of backing up.
 

Stability Management System

The comprehensive Vehicle Stability Management system links and optimizes the function of all active safety features. It incorporates Motor Driven Power Steering, ESC, TCS and ABS in potential collision situations.
 
Hyundai Elantra 6-spd Transmission   Hyundai Fuel Efficiency   Phoenix Hyundai MPG

6-speed Auto Transmission

This is not your ordinary compact ride. With its sophisticated 6-speed automatic transmission, the Elantra generates smooth acceleration for the highway, while balancing power and comfort for in-town traffic.
 

1.8L, 4-cylinder Engine w/ D-CVVT

The all-new aluminum cylinder block and lower crankcase create a 30% lighter engine from the previous generation. Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT) optimizes intake and exhaust valve timing with stable combustion for maximum performance at every speed. The continual optimization of camshaft phasing improves engine performance and fuel economy while reducing emissions.
 

Hyundai Elantra MPG

With its exceptionally low coefficient of drag (0.28), a highly efficient 4-cylinder engine, and a responsive 6-speed transmission, the Elantra goes farther with less. At 40 MPG highway for all models, it's more fuel-efficient than Civic and Corolla.
 
Hyundai Elantra Traction Control System   Hyundai Brake Assist   Phoenix Hyundai Six Airbags

Traction Control System

This is not your ordinary compact ride. With its sophisticated 6-speed automatic transmission, the Elantra generates smooth acceleration for the highway, while balancing power and comfort for in-town traffic.
 

Hyundai Brake Assist

In emergency braking situations, many drivers may not apply sufficient braking force to achieve the shortest possible stopping distance. Brake Assist helps detect emergency braking and ensures the maximum braking force is immediately applied to minimize stopping distances.
 

Six Airbags

Some car makers try to get by with the bare minimum. We prefer the opposite, filling the interior with six airbags to help protect you and your passengers in case of an accident.
