: [MD/UD] New Elantra Touring! based on the 2011 Elantra Sedan only1db 11-15-2010, 02:29 PM link at Gencoupe.com (http://www.gencoupe.com/autoblog/49511-hyundai-planning-new-elantra-touring-based-2011-elantra-sedan.html) pretty much it says that they will be coming out with a 5 door based on the NEW md...:laugh: OMG a GT replacement? SuperGLS 11-15-2010, 02:42 PM Yeah, Krafcik said there would be "3-4 variants" so it makes sense. It's too bad it wasn't available in time for a 2011 model. My guess is that it will be an early 2012 maybe during the summer or early fall. only1db 11-16-2010, 06:51 AM thats what i'll venture to say...even heard about a 2 door model? uh? SuperGLS 11-16-2010, 09:36 AM Not sure, though with the Veloster coming out it doesn't make sense to me for them to offer a two door Elantra.

Our friends at Autoblog had this to share: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/11/elantracomic630.jpg It would be nice if the sheetmetal from the rear door forward had the same style as the sedan. EDIT: And the 2.4 liter engine as an option. SuperGLS 11-16-2010, 10:42 PM I agree with your styling hopes. Engine wise, doesn't look like that'll happen gauging by the engine news they just released. only1db 11-17-2010, 06:53 AM yeah....and the 2.0t would be too hopefull as well. cclngthr 11-17-2010, 10:20 PM yeah....and the 2.0t would be too hopefull as well. That engine is in the new 2011 Kia Optima SX. 275 hp at the crank. They need to have a FWD car to compete with the Mazdaspeed 3 and the VW Jetta turbo. The Gen Coupe may not be as comparable in that regard. | |
