The Elantra HEV has potential to be an amazing car, but it falls short
This car gets fantastic gas mileage and has a lot of really enticing features, however, the performance and engine capability, which is consistently and continually plagued with problems, makes this car an exemption to any vehicle you would want your family or children driving. I purchased my car at the beginning of January 2026 brand new, and we are almost to June 2026, and it has been in the shop for nearly 5 months. No one has been able to fix any of the issues, and I keep getting promises that are never getting fulfilled. There is always a time delay, or an excuse, or some other reason why I'm continually driving rental cars, when my brand new car is still in the shop. I have been in contact with the store manager, the service manager, and even a Hyundai representative. No one has any answers, And I am still without my car and in a rental. Absolutely unacceptable.
