Hyundai Elantra fluidic 2012 Review

Hyundai Elantra fluidic 2012 Review

Here is the new fluidic and aerodynamic design of new Hyundai Elantra fluidic 2012. It looks fantastic and is a much-needed change Hyundai needed for its Elantra model though it resembles a bit to Hyundai Verna. There is much more to have a look than just good looks.

This new avatar of the previous Elantra model makes it to achieving the styling factor making it best looking in its segment.The front bumper and grille design are the first things to be appealing with a lot of curvy lines and long wheelbase.It comes with a 1.6-litre diesel and a 1.8-litre petrol with both engines getting 6-speed manual and auto transmissions.

The flowing lines of the Verna have been well accepted by the customers making it one of the fastest moving Hyundai products in the market.The same design concept of fluid lines has been extended to the new Elantra in the form sleeker headlights and a slightly raked bonnet.

Inside, Elantra gets a two-toned treatment and the silver accents add to the glitz that accentuates the plush feeling.Just like the Verna, the new Elantra comes loaded with features.The combination of looks and features are its strong selling points.
