Skoda Slavia vs Hyundai Elantra [2015-2016]

So I have spent nearly two months inat the seat of my Elantra and it has been a truly positive experience. This month I mostly used the Elantra for intra city commutes and the Hyundai felt more than at home.

The Hyundai Elantra diesel has just entered our long term garage in the automatic guise and I am quite excited to call it all mine for the next three months. Despite being launched four years back, the Elantra still looks fresh and makes for a good option to the recently launched Toyota Corolla or even the Skoda Octavia. There is lots of space on the inside, it has a comfortable ride, very good refinement and a car that is genuinely good value.

Hyundai may have earned its name with its range of small hatchbacks and sedans here in India, but here’s a little-known fact: globally, the Korean brand is also responsible for making the BMW-rivalling luxury sedan in the form of the Genesis. Hyundai India’s most luxurious sedan offering, though, is the relatively smaller Elantra – a car that we all seem to like a lot, here at CarWale. And now that Hyundai has brought out a completely new 2016 model, we are looking forward to gauging all the changes and upgrades in the new Elantra.
