Yes, the Elantra Sport will remain front - wheel drive, just like
all other Elantras, but it will ditch the standard car's torsion - beam rear end and replace it with an independent multilink rear suspension.
Matching
other Elantras, the GT gets the smooth - revving 1.8 - liter four with direct injection, 148 horses and 131 pound - feet of torque.
The GT is based on the European i30, so it brings a handful of features not seen in
other Elantras, such as a driver's knee air bag and three - mode adjustable steering assist.
Not exact matches
Elantras are Hyundai's cannon fodder against the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, Mazda3 and all the
other sedans vying for the compact buyer's dollar.
Can't rate the reliability due to the newness of the car, but based on my
other 2
Elantras, it should be a home run also.
