FOUNTAIN VALLEY, CALIF., 10/09/2006 - Hyundai Motor America has announced pricing for the all-new 2007 Elantra. Arriving at dealerships this month with a new lower starting price of $13,995 (including freight charges), Elantra brings more refinement, safety and class-leading interior space to the compact car segment.
“The all-new Elantra delivers more interior space than Civic or Corolla – even more space than Acura TL – and a level of ride and handling refinement that’s both agile and comfortable,” said John Krafcik, vice president, Product Development and Strategic Planning, Hyundai Motor America. “Add in great standard safety features like six airbags, anti-lock brakes and active front head restraints and our assertive new design, and it’s clear that Elantra offers unbeatable value.”  All Elantra models are equipped with unsurpassed standard safety technologies, including a total of six airbags, active front head restraints, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD) and 4-wheel disc brakes. Side-impact airbags are expensive options on competitors such as Toyota Corolla and Ford Focus, and are not available on the Chevrolet Cobalt. Side curtain air protection is optional on Corolla and Cobalt and still not available on Focus. Four-wheel disc brakes are a key leadership feature for the segment, as traditional rear drum brakes are still found on the 2007 Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Ford Focus and Chevrolet Cobalt. NEW STANDARD FEATURES FOR 2007 - Roof mounted side curtain airbags
- ABS with Electronic Brake force Distribution
- 4-wheel disc brakes
- Active front head restraints
- Adjustable head restraints for all seating positions
- Rear center armrest with cupholders
