Hyundai Elantra upgrades

It's only been three years since we got to know the seventh generation of the Hyundai Elantra, but the Korean brand always likes to keep its product portfolio up to date. This is precisely the reason why the manufacturer has shown the first images of the revamped Hyundai Elantra 2024 on its official website in South Korea.

As we know, in its home country Elantra is sold as Avante. Regardless of its designation, the compact sedan receives as a commercial mid-cycle update some styling tweaks to both the exterior and interior. For now we have images of the standard version, but the changes should also reach the more powerful Hyundai Elantra N.

Most of the Hyundai Elantra 2024 changes happen at the front. We can see flatter headlights that are flanked by a new metallic blade that extends across the entire width of the grille. This grille now splits into two sections to visually reduce it in size, separated by a body-color element in the center.

Inside, there is a new Sage Green upholstery made with ecological and sustainable materials.

The false air intakes in the corners of the bumpers give the front a more sporty appearance. At the rear there are only subtle changes in the taillights and the bumper, which is a little more pronounced. Added to this is a discreet diffuser and a silver U-shaped element that extends across the entire width of the rear. There are also some elements in black.

The side view remains virtually unchanged, with the exception of new wheel sets. On the other hand, the plastic C-pillar panel now has a more intricate pattern, while the chrome beltline is a little thicker towards the end.
