The 2005 Hyundai Elantra is a compact car that stands out for its value and comfort. This model year is part of the third generation which was introduced in 2001 and remained in production until 2006. It offers a single 138-horsepower 2.0-Liter I4 engine that pairs with either a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual transmission. With two trim levels, GLS and GT, the Elantra comes well-equipped with keyless entry, power windows, and power door locks as standard. The GT trims add on amenities like leather seating and a sport-tuned suspension. Notably for 2005, the Elantra saw the addition of standard front seat-mounted side-impact airbags. Its infotainment system doesn't offer modern amenities like a touchscreen or smartphone integration, as those technologies were less common in 2005.
