Super TestCar reviews - Hyundai - Elantra - GL sedanHyundai modelsOverviewThe third-generation Elantra brought Hyundai's small car into the 21st century5 Jul 2001 HYUNDAI'S new generation small-medium entrant is now prefixed by an "E" and represents much more than simply a name change from the Lantra we have come to know and, in many ways, like. Still cost-effective, it is expanded in size, equipment and style to take on entrenched rival sedans from Europe and Japan. It is also a better car to drive, though a gain in weight has helped blunt its performance in both 1.8 and 2.0-litre guise.

The former RD Lantra was sold here between February 1999, with the "RD" representing a facelift and introduction of the 2.0-litre engine. Lantra first appeared in Australia in J1 guise in May 1991. The J2 Lantra, launched in August 1995, was the first variant of the outgoing body shape. |
