Performance
The ELANTRA’s commitment to efficiency and eco-friendliness is exemplified by the standard setup’s fuel economy rating of 31/40/35 MPG city/hwy/combined1. With the standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, you will have 147 horsepower and 132 lb.-ft. of torque to dedicate to your I-395 commute. For an extra burst of energy in the form of 201 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque, switch to the available 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder powertrain. While the standard Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission focuses on creating smooth acceleration, the optional 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with SHIFTRONIC® brings active engagement to the forefront. Continue customizing the ELANTRA’s operation by toggling between the standard Normal, Sport, and Smart drive modes.
Exterior
To put your own spin on the stylish appearance of the 2026 Hyundai ELANTRA, choose Fluid Metal, Ultimate Red, Intense Blue, or another eye-catching paint color from its lineup. This model rides to Ben Brenman Park atop a standard set of 15-inch alloy wheels, but you can give its sleek silhouette a boost with the available 18-inch alternatives. Your path will be clearly illuminated by standard dual-LED projector headlights and LED daytime running lights. At the rear, the optional full LED taillights and chrome twin exhaust outlet will leave a memorable impression on slower drivers that you pass. When you equip the ELANTRA with available heated side mirrors, you will have no trouble getting rid of ice or condensation that threatens to obscure your vision.
Safety
With the ELANTRA’s standard Hyundai SmartSense suite as your copilot, you will have the tools that you need to handle a variety of challenging situations. While the standard Blind-Spot Collision Warning2 will make you aware of nearby cars before you merge into a different lane, the Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist3 will monitor the area behind the bumper as you reverse. Feel free to plan excursions in the evening, since the standard High Beam Assist will automatically adjust the intensity of the headlights to help you avoid blinding your fellow drivers. The optional Highway Driving Assist4 will make it easy to adhere to a set following distance and stay centered between the lines of the road. Take the next step toward making the ELANTRA your own by filling out a secure Finance Application on the Sheehy Hyundai of Waldorf website!

Testimonials
I will be referring James to anyone who's looking to buy a car.
My experience with Anya Kerns and Denzel Payne was the absolute best experience I have had in 40+ years of car owning.
“ My experience with Anya Kerns and Denzel Payne was the absolute best experience I have had in 40+ years of car owning. Sheehy Hyundai of Waldorf has the best customer service, nicest, most down to earth employees and salespeople, and I will continue to return and recommend for years to come. I live in a completely different state and drove over an hour and a half to get there because they offered literally the best of everything when it came to buying a new car. If you’re in the market for a new car AND great service, run, don’t walk to Sheehy Hyundai of Waldorf. No, this isn’t a paid add…it’s reality. These people are simply the best in the business. ”
Very good experience! Eric was very helpful and made the experience pleasant.
“ Very good experience! Eric was very helpful and made the experience pleasant. I am usually leery and very skeptical of car dealers. He was neither pushy nor aggressive and that was appreciated in addition to him and the finance manager going above and beyond to get what I was asking for. I will definitely go back when in the market for another vehicle. ”
Every employee was pleasant and greeted me with a smile.

*1. EPA estimates for comparison. Your actual mileage will vary with options, driving conditions, driving habits, and vehicle's condition. Some accessories are not available on some models. While the information contained in this website was correct at time of publishing, specifications and equipment can change. Hyundai reserves the right to change product specifications and equipment at any time without incurring obligations. Some vehicles are shown with optional equipment. Specifications apply to U.S. vehicles only. Please contact your Hyundai dealer for current vehicle specifications.
2. Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) can assist the driver by warning of other cars in the blind spot region. While your turn signal is on, it can alert you visually, by sound and/or by haptic feedback when equipped. It senses the rear side territory of the vehicle when it is traveling over approximately 12 mph. There are limitations to the function, range, detection and clarity of the system. It will not detect all vehicles or objects in the blind spot. Its operation depends on the size, distance, angle and relative speed difference between your car and other cars. BCW may not operate if sensors are obscured in any way. Do not rely exclusively on BCW. BCW is a supplemental system, and the driver must still be attentive and exercise caution when driving. It is the driver's responsibility to be aware of the surroundings and ensure it is clear before changing lanes or directions. See Owner’s Manual for further details and limitations.
3. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) can alert the driver of a potential collision by providing an audible warning and/or applying braking. RCCA is active when the vehicle is in reverse and operating at low speeds. Never rely exclusively on RCCA. RCCA cannot prevent all collisions and may not provide alerts or braking in all conditions. Always look over your shoulder and use your mirrors to confirm rear clearance. There are limitations to the function, detection, range and clarity of the system. See Owner's Manual for further details and limitations.
4. Highway Driving Assist (HDA), is for highway use only and can help keep the vehicle centered in its lane while maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead only when the lane markings are clearly visible on the road and should not be used in poor weather, heavy or varying traffic, or on winding or slippery roads. HDA will not work under all circumstances and will not prevent loss of control. Driver remains responsible to slow or stop the vehicle to avoid a collision. See Owner’s Manual for further details and limitations.
“ I just want to say, that James was awesome helping me buy a car. His transparency and integrity as a car salesman was refreshing to say the least. He made the process so easy, customer service is great! Especially now since these car dealerships are only concern about the bottom line. Sheehy gave me a different outlook on dealerships. I will be referring James to anyone who's looking to buy a car. Thanks, Sheehy ”
