The 2017 Elantra is available in five trims: SE, Eco, Sport, Limited, and GT. The base SE model is pretty short on features. It comes standard with remote keyless entry, satellite radio, and a USB port. Most shoppers will be fine with a base model equipped with one of two available packages. The Popular Equipment package adds a 7-inch touch screen, a rearview camera, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, cruise control, and alloy wheels. Better still, SE models with the Tech package gain blind spot detection, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and push-button start.

The Elantra Eco and Elantra Limited trims come standard with all of these features. The Eco adds a more fuel-efficient turbocharged engine, while the Limited adds leather seats and Blue Link connectivity. Look for Limited models equipped with options like heated rear seats, a navigation system, and a sunroof. Notably, only the Limited trim is available with advanced safety features like forward collision warning and adaptive cruise control.

If you want more athleticism, look for Sport and GT models. The Elantra Sport shares most of its features with the SE trim (with the Popular Equipment package), but it adds a stiffer suspension, revised steering, uprated brakes, and a more powerful turbocharged engine. Last but not least is the Elantra GT – the only hatchback in this lineup. Its standard and available features are fairly similar to the SE model’s, but it does have a more powerful four-cylinder engine.
