Other than the odometer LCD... - 2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring
By JT - November 17 - 7:58 amIm happy enough with my 2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring GLS, except for having to repeatedly replace the odometer/trip LCD. I think Im on my third replacement. I have 13K on it (each replacement odometer LCD is set at "0" miles), and this one is now starting to go. Once it goes bad it can only be read in the morning. After the car sits in the sun all day the odometer fades until it is unreadable. Other than that Im happy with the car.

Excellent value - 2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring
By crowcanada - January 1 - 10:41 pmMy wife and kids positively *love* our Touring! Theyre all short (52 to 54) so they love the visibility and low-dash design The controls are well laid out and easy to use. The radio is small and fiddly. Ride is stiff, but handling is good. Not truly sporty, though. Hyundai seems to think making things stiff and heavy = sporty, but thats not true. It is a vastly better driver than my 13 Elantra Sedan, which, although more comfortable, has "unsettled" handling. Handling is predictable and road holding good. Engine is weak and mileage is not great in this class. Seats are hard and flat, but surprisingly dont kill you on long (14+ hour) drives.
