Overview & Reviews

In an effort to mold its image into that of a serious first-rate automobile manufacturer, Hyundai has recently added standard equipment and enhanced the performance of several of its cars. The redesigned Accent and new Sonata are proving that this South Korean automaker has finally learned how to build a good car. The current Elantra provides even more proof, and the company offers an industry-leading warranty program to back it up.

• Solidly built, powerful engine for its class, plenty of standard features.

• The price on this "inexpensive" Korean car keeps going up.

  So much car, so little money! - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By renosnave - April 23 - 2:00 am

  The Hyundai warranty was what drew me to this vehicle. I wanted to have a car that started every time I put the key in. That I have a moonroof and a cd player and power everything is also great. While other people have $300- $400 car payments mine was just $167 a month! Did have a stereo problem, but they just took out the old one and put in a new one (covered by warranty!)

  best purchase ever - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By dave.henning - April 17 - 2:00 am

  OVERALL: This car (00 wagon w/everthing) is the best big purchase I have ever made. 42K mi. - no repairs and no major disappointments. INTERIOR: The A/C is really strong, but it sucks power. Cupholders are lame. Back seat is small, but its fine if youre taking the work gang to lunch. FUEL: My one gripe has been fuel economy. As bad as 21 mpg, as good as 34 mpg. ENGINE: I can go >80mph and not feel like the car is straining. Its pretty quiet for a 4-banger. SUMMARY: Id get another in a second. I was considering the Focus, Legacy and VW Passat. I saved $2K-$13K and got all the car I needed.

  Elantra is OK - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By Larry J - March 25 - 7:00 am

  Insurance is very high!! Good quality for a low cost car, warranty was the major selling factor for me. It is a little too small for my family now, have to move up to a SUV or mini van.

  What a car! - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By young - March 17 - 5:20 pm

  I love this car! The passing power is superb and I havent had any problem for the last two years and half. Some people complains about its engine noise but I like it. The handling and cornering is excellent, which makes me feel very safe when I drive this car. Also, I love the front reading lights which the other cars of the same class dont usually.

  Car with No problems - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By vignesh - March 2 - 2:00 am

  I bought this on 09/99 for the past 4 years i dont have any problem with this vehicle.I think this could be due to the fact i am religiously doing manufacturer recommended services and 3k oil change.

  Pleasantly Surprised! - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By dally135 - February 13 - 2:00 am

  I bought the Elantra in Oct 2001 after driving all the compact sedans. With the spoiler and sunroof, it was BY FAR the best looking, best warrenty, and had the best price. Over 3 years, I had one problem with the driver side window, but the dealer fixed it in 30 min. Great gas mileage, low insurance, more horsepower . . . the only drawback is that the resale value is low.

  definitely worth it - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By cmt - February 12 - 2:00 am

  I have a 2000 Elantra with about 60000 miles on it so far and it has worked out great. Its a decent little car which could be considered phenomenal for the price. The only problems Ive had were with the power windows which have all needed repairs at some point. It doesnt compare with the pricer automobiles and it wasnt designed to. bottom line, if it fits your budget, you should definitely go test one out. Personally, I like the pre-2k1 body style though as opposed to the new ones.

  Will Miss My Hyundai - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By Teacher Mary - January 17 - 2:00 am

  I have had my Elantra for 3 yrs. This past week I was in an accident, I was hit almost directly head on. My airbags deployed perfectly and immediately, my seat belt held firm. My Elantra is totaled but I walked away from the accident with only bruises from my safety equiptment. I am definitely buying another.

  Excellent Car For The Money - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By mdsi - January 5 - 2:00 am

  I have had only one thing go wrong with this car. Spark Plugs and wires went bad causing the car to run rough and the check engine light to come on. Anyway this also happened to someone else I know, so dont worry if yours does the same thing, just try new plugs/wires first. That is such a minor issue to have happened with my $12,000 Hyundai in 110,00 miles that I can only say that this is one reliable vehicle that will treat any owner well. I bought it for the warranty, assuming they were built to last, and I was right. I love the car.

  I will buy another Hyundai - 2000 Hyundai Elantra
  By JustinBuffaloNY - November 15 - 2:00 am

  I love the car! I have put 65,000 miles on the car in 2 1/2 years with no problems! The only thing that I had to replace were the tires. I had the car in a 60mph accident on icy roads head on with a suv and thanks to the cinstruction of the car my wife and I walked away with out a scrach.
