Hyundai Teases the Next-Gen Elantra - Insider Car News

The Hyundai Elantra is way overdue for a redesign, as it has had essentially the same design since 2011. While the current Elantra is not ugly by any stretch of the imagination, it is starting to show its age a bit. What’s more, with Hyundai’s lineup changing all around the Elantra, the aging looks of the current model will only worsen with each passing year. » Related: Hyundai Reveals Updates and Pricing for the 2016 Accent Apparently, we will not have to wait too long for the debut of the next-gen Elantra, as Hyundai has just released a teaser image showing off the updated sedan. Thankfully, Hyundai appears to be taking the wise route with the new Elantra and revamping the Fluidic Sculpture design language instead of fully overhauling it. The result is the pretty sweet preview of the 2017 Elantra above. Luckily, we won’t have to wait too long to find out, as the redesigned Elantra will make its debut at the 2015 LA Auto Show, set to kick off in December. In addition to the new look, we are awaiting details on what will power the next-gen Elantra. There will almost certainly be a higher-output engine available with the 2017 Elantra as well, possibly a turbocharged unit that crests the 200-horsepower mark. Source: www.insidercarnews.com
