2014 Hyundai ELANTRA GT

The 2014 Elantra GT adds a more powerful engine to a model known for its design, five-door functionality, sophisticated suspension tuning and interior space.

Hyundai upped both the horsepower and torque on the refreshed 2014 Elantra GT to make it even more fun to drive. The GT now includes a standard 2.0-liter Nu Gasoline Direct Injection engine, which adds more horsepower and torque from the prior model year.

This powertrain in the Elantra GT produces 173 horsepower and 154 lb.-ft. of torque. With these gains, along with a low curb weight, Elantra GT can now boast the best power-to-weight ratio and specific output in the segment.

Everything about Elantra GT is aerodynamic from the aggressive profile and low overall height, to the sleek side mirrors. Tire gaps are minimized while rocker panels are streamlined. Lower wind resistance translates into a smoother ride.

The Elantra GT can be equipped with a six-speed manual or automatic transaxle with SHIFTRONIC manual control. Elantra GT's six-speed manual transmission provides short, crisp shifts and further optimizes engine performance.

Maximizing interior volume with various seating layouts are hallmarks of Hyundai engineering and translate into more cabin room, cargo space and versatility. The Elantra GT features seating layouts that can comfortably seat five people or accommodate four passengers, plus long items like golf clubs or snowboards.

Located in the center console, the available navigation system is displayed via a 7-inch touchscreen and incorporates the rearview camera screen.
