Hyundai has launched the Elantra facelift in India, seeing subtle changes to the exterior as well as the interiors. These are the changes on the facelifted sedan.
Hyundai Elantra facelift has been introduced in India, after its last update in 2017. As expected, Hyundai has pumped up its C-segment sedan with many new features following changes to the exterior as well as the interior.
Another important change comes in from under the hood. Now, the Elantra only comes with a petrol engine, skipping its 1.6 Litre turbo-diesel engine. It is now the only car in its segment, to come with a petrol engine.

The new Hyundai Elantra facelift starts at Rs 15.89 Lakhs, going up to Rs 20.39 Lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi). With this, the prices have nearly increased by Rs 1.5 Lakhs – 2 Lakhs, on each variant.
