The 2025 Elantra delivers on all fronts. More than just a car, it's an extension of your connected life, designed to make every journey simpler, safer, and more enjoyable.

This isn't just about choosing a new car; it's about choosing a vehicle that enhances your lifestyle, a partner ready for every adventure the Modern Frontier has to offer, and this guide is designed to answer all your questions.
The 2025 Hyundai Elantra
lineup is a thoughtfully curated collection of models, each with a distinct personality designed to perfectly match every type of driver in Oklahoma City.
For 2025, the trim structure has been refined to offer even clearer choices.
The popular SEL trim has evolved into the new SEL Sport , while the features of the former Convenience Package have been consolidated into a new standalone trim, the SEL Convenience
This makes it easier than ever to pinpoint the exact combination of style, comfort, and technology you're looking for.To help you find your perfect match, think of the five core gasoline trims as distinct personas:
SE: The smart, sensible choice for those who prioritize maximum value and incredible fuel efficiency without compromising on essential technology and safety.
SEL Sport: The ideal step-up for drivers who crave a more athletic look and key convenience upgrades that make a real difference in daily driving.
SEL Convenience: The ultimate commuter's companion, focusing on a high-tech cabin experience and all-season comfort features.
Limited: The pinnacle of Elantra refinement, delivering a near-luxury experience with premium materials, immersive audio, and advanced driver aids.
N Line: The enthusiast's pick, offering turbocharged power, track-inspired handling, and aggressive styling for a truly thrilling drive
This diverse family ensures there's an Elantra for you. Whether you’re drawn to the incredible efficiency of the Elantra Hybrid models or the pure, unadulterated performance of the track-bred Elantra N, this guide will walk you through the heart of the lineup to help you discover the model that’s built for your life.
The 2025 Elantra SE is definitive proof that affordability doesn't mean you have to compromise on the things that matter most.
It serves as theintelligent foundation of the Elantra family, delivering a remarkable combination of efficiency, essential technology, and a comprehensive suite of safety features that provides confidence on every Oklahoma road.
Under the hood, the SE is powered by a smooth and reliable 2.0L 4-cylinder engine producing 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque.
Paired with the advanced Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT), it offers responsive acceleration for city driving and exceptional fuel economy that's a true game-changer.
Imagine achieving up to an incredible 41 MPG on the highway during your commute from Moore to Tinker Air Force Base, saving you real money at the pump.
Visually, the SE makes a strong first impression with standard 15-inch alloy wheels and sharp Dual-LED Projector headlights, ensuring it looks modern and sophisticated from every angle.
Inside, the cabin is your connected sanctuary. A vibrant 8-inch color touchscreen is your hub for entertainment and communication, featuring standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™—premium features that let you access your maps, music, and messages without ever plugging in your phone.
For 2025, Hyundai has also made dual USB-C charging ports standard for rear passengers, a thoughtful touch that keeps everyone's devices powered up on family trips.
Every SE model also comes standard with the Hyundai SmartSense suite. This includes Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection (FCA-Ped), which can warn you of a potential collision and even apply the brakes if necessary.
It also includes Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA), features that act as your co-pilot when changing lanes on a busy I-35 or backing out of a tight parking spot.
For first-time buyers, growing families, or anyone seeking incredible value, the Elantra SE delivers uncompromised safety and technology where it counts.
For those who want their vehicle to reflect their personality, the 2025 Elantra SEL Sport builds on the SE's excellent foundation by adding a significant dose of dynamic style and must-have convenience features.
This trim is for the driver who appreciates a sportier aesthetic and wants an elevated experience every time they get behind the wheel.
Convenience is also taken to the next level with the Proximity Key entry system and push-button start.
No more fumbling for keys in your pocket or purse during a sudden Oklahoma downpour; as long as the key is with you, the doors unlock and the engine starts with the touch of a button.
Further enhancing the cabin's sporty feel are alloy sport pedals and the addition of a wireless device charging pad, ensuring your compatible smartphone is always ready to go.
The SEL Sport also introduces a key technology feature designed to reduce driver fatigue: Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go (SCC).
This system is a true game-changer for anyone who navigates Oklahoma City's rush-hour traffic.
It also includes Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA), features that act as your co-pilot when changing lanes on a busy I-35 or backing out of a tight parking spot.
It automatically maintains a set distance from the vehicle ahead, slowing down and even coming to a complete stop before accelerating again when traffic moves.
Imagine a less stressful commute on I-235 or the Broadway Extension—that's the peace of mind the SEL Sport delivers.
As its name perfectly describes, the 2025 Elantra SEL Convenience is engineered to make your life easier, more comfortable, and more connected.
Building on the stylish foundation of the SEL Sport, this trim transforms the Elantra's cabin into a high-tech sanctuary, making it the ideal choice for the daily commuter who values sophisticated technology and all-weather comfort.
The centerpiece of the SEL Convenience is the stunning transformation of the dashboard. Here, you are greeted by an immersive "glass cockpit" that feels like it belongs in a much more expensive vehicle.
A brilliant 10.25-inch fully digital instrument cluster replaces traditional gauges, offering a crisp, configurable display of your driving information.
It sits side-by-side with an equally impressive 10.25-inch high-resolution touchscreen with built-in navigation, creating a seamless panoramic interface that is both beautiful and intuitive.
Comfort is paramount in the
SEL Convenience, especially with Oklahoma's varied
seasons.
Heated front seats are standard, allowing
you to warm up in seconds on a frosty January
morning before you even hit the road.
For beautiful spring days or cool summer evenings, the standard
power tilt-and-slide sunroof lets you bring the
outside in with the touch of a button.
Practicality is also enhanced with the addition of
heated side mirrors, which quickly clear away ice
and fog, and a
60/40 split-folding rear seatback that provides the
flexibility to carry longer items.
This trim also marks the introduction of
Hyundai's Bluelink+ connected car services and the
innovative Hyundai Pay system.
Bluelink+ allows you to
remotely start your car,
lock or unlock the doors, and even
set the climate control from your smartphone—a
true luxury on a sweltering August afternoon.
On the safety front, the SEL Convenience enhances the standard suite with an upgraded Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist system that adds Cyclist and Junction-Turning Detection, providing an extra layer of protection when navigating busy city intersections in Midtown or around Classen Curve.
The 2025 Elantra Limited represents the ultimate expression of comfort and sophistication in the lineup.
It takes the impressive technology and convenience of the preceding trims and elevates them with a layer of genuine luxury, wrapping you in premium materials, immersive sound, and Hyundai's most advanced driver-assistance technologies.
It’s designed for the driver who wants a premium experience without the premium price tag. If you want to enjoy luxury, comfort, and advanced safety in your next car, the Elantra Limited is built for you.
For music lovers, the
Limited's standard Bose® premium audio system is a
revelation.
With
eight strategically placed speakers, including a
powerful subwoofer, it delivers
rich, clear, and immersive sound that turns your
Elantra into a private concert hall.
The Limited also brings Hyundai's
top-tier technology to the forefront.
It features
Highway Driving Assist (HDA), an intelligent system
that acts as your ultimate co-pilot on long
stretches.
HDA combines Smart Cruise Control with Lane Following Assist to help you maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead while keeping the Elantra centered in its lane, significantly reducing driver stress.
Convenience is further enhanced by the Hyundai Digital Key 2 Touch, which allows you to use your compatible smartphone or smartwatch as your key, and a hands-free smart trunk release that opens automatically when you stand behind the vehicle with the Proximity Key.
Externally, the Limited distinguishes itself with subtle yet effective touches of elegance, including a unique dark chrome front grille and sophisticated chrome window trim that signal its status as the top-of-the-line model.
For the driver whose pulse quickens at the thought of an open road and a responsive machine, the 2025 Elantra N Line delivers.
This trim is not simply a cosmetic package; it injects a potent dose of motorsport-inspired performance and handling into the Elantra, creating a compact sedan that is as thrilling to drive as it is aggressive to behold.
It represents a different path to the top of the lineup, one that prioritizes exhilaration over outright luxury.
The heart of the N Line is its exclusive powertrain. Under the hood lies a formidable 1.6L turbocharged GDI engine, pumping out an impressive 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque.
Crucially, that peak torque is available from a low 1,500 RPM, which means you get thrilling, near-instantaneous acceleration right when you want it—perfect for decisive merging and an exciting rush on any straightaway.
This potent engine is paired with a performance-oriented 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) with SHIFTRONIC®.
Unlike a conventional automatic, a DCT provides lightning-fast, crisp shifts that create a more direct and engaging connection between you and the car.
For ultimate control, you can use the steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters to command gear changes yourself.
True performance, however, is about more than just power. The N Line features a critical chassis upgrade: a sophisticated multi-link rear suspension.
In simple terms, this advanced setup allows the rear wheels to react to bumps and corners independently, providing vastly superior grip and stability when cornering and a more composed ride over the uneven pavement you might find on some of Oklahoma City's older roads.
To rein in the extra speed, the N Line is also equipped with larger 12-inch front brake rotors for confident and powerful stopping performance.
The N Line's performance-focused identity is proudly displayed through its exclusive design elements.
From the aggressive front and rear fascias and unique 18-inch alloy wheels to the sporty chrome twin exhaust outlet, every detail is designed to look the part.
Inside, you’re held in place by heavily bolstered N Line combination leather/cloth sport seats, and the driver-focused cockpit is finished with a black headliner and exclusive N Line branding, completing the track-inspired experience.
To help you easily compare the models and find your perfect fit, these tables provide a clear, side-by-side look at the core performance metrics and key features that define each 2025 Elantra trim.
This table offers a quick reference for the fundamental performance and efficiency of each trim, allowing you to instantly see the powerful advantage of the N Line and the exceptional efficiency of the standard engine.

Whether your priority is sipping fuel on a long commute or carving through corners with enthusiasm, the 2025 Elantra offers a powertrain and chassis tuned to make every drive a rewarding one.
The standard engine in the SE, SEL Sport, SEL Convenience, and Limited trims is the highly efficient 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, producing a capable 147 horsepower. This engine is paired with Hyundai’s Smartstream® Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT). This is not your average continuously variable transmission.
The IVT is engineered to provide a smooth, linear, and responsive feel that mimics the shifts of a traditional automatic, eliminating the disconnected "droning" sensation found in some older designs. It’s the perfect partner for relaxed city driving and provides effortless, quiet cruising on the highway, all while delivering truly impressive fuel economy.
Exclusive to the N Line, the 1.6L turbocharged engine transforms the Elantra’s character. Using Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) technology for optimized power and efficiency, it generates an exciting 201 horsepower. This engine is mated to a quick-shifting 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT).
The DCT offers a level of driver engagement that is simply unmatched by a conventional automatic or IVT. Shifts are executed in milliseconds, providing a direct and sporty feel. For those who want full control, the steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters allow you to command gear changes with a flick of your finger, delivering a truly hands-on driving experience.
A great car is built on a solid foundation. Most Elantra trims feature a coupled torsion beam axle rear suspension, a design that is reliable, simple, and space-efficient, providing a comfortable and predictable ride for daily driving.
The performance-focused N Line, however, receives a significant upgrade to a more sophisticated multi-link rear suspension. This advanced setup allows each rear wheel to move independently, which dramatically improves both handling precision in corners and ride comfort over bumps and imperfections in the road. It’s a true performance enhancement that you can feel every time you take a turn.
Furthermore, every 2025 Elantra comes equipped with Drive Mode Select, allowing you to tailor the car’s personality on the fly. Choose between Normal for a balanced feel, Sport for sharpened throttle response and steering feel, or Smart mode, which intelligently adapts to your driving style.
Step inside the 2025 Elantra and you'll discover a thoughtfully designed, driver-focused cockpit that seamlessly integrates advanced technology with surprising space and premium comfort.
The dashboard of the Elantra evolves as you move up the trim line.
This stunning feature pairs a 10.25-inch fully digital instrument cluster with a 10.25-inch navigation touchscreen, creating a single, sweeping glass panel that puts all your critical information and entertainment in one beautiful, easy-to-read location.
On the Limited and N Line trims, the Hyundai Digital Key 2 Touch takes convenience a step further, allowing you to leave your key fob at home and use your compatible smartphone or smartwatch to unlock, start, and drive your car.
You can even securely share a temporary digital key with a friend or family member via text message.
Don't let its "compact" classification fool you; the Elantra's interior is remarkably spacious.
With 99.4 cubic feet of passenger volume, it offers ample headroom and legroom for everyone on board.
And with 14.2 cubic feet of trunk space, it boasts one of the largest and most usable cargo areas in its class, easily accommodating groceries, luggage for a weekend getaway to Lake Hefner, or gear for a family outing.
The cabin experience is defined by your choice of materials and features.
From the durable and comfortable cloth seats in the SE and SEL trims to the premium H-Tex™ leatherette in the Limited and the aggressively bolstered sport seats in the N Line, there's an option for every taste.
You can further personalize your driving environment with available features like a power tilt-and-slide sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and the mesmerizing 64-color customizable ambient lighting system on the Limited trim.
When you're navigating the busy streets of Oklahoma City, there is no substitute for confidence. That's why every single 2025 Hyundai Elantra—from the entry-level SE to the top-tier Limited and N Line—comes equipped with Hyundai SmartSense, an advanced suite of safety and driver-assistance features designed to be your vigilant co-pilot.
Hyundai believes that the most critical safety technologies should be standard, not locked away in expensive packages.
This system uses a forward-facing camera to monitor the road ahead. It can provide audible and visual warnings if it detects a potential collision with a vehicle or pedestrian in your path and can even automatically apply the brakes to help mitigate or avoid an impact.
Think of this as a second set of eyes. Radar sensors in the rear bumper detect vehicles in your blind spots. If you activate your turn signal to change lanes, the system will provide an alert, helping you avoid a potential collision on a multi-lane highway like I-235.
This feature makes backing out of parking spots at busy places like Penn Square Mall significantly safer. It warns you of vehicles approaching from the left or right that you might not be able to see, and can even apply the brakes if necessary.
These systems work together to reduce driving fatigue. LKA provides gentle steering corrections to help prevent you from unintentionally drifting out of your lane, while LFA helps keep the vehicle centered, making long drives more comfortable and secure.
As you move to higher trims, you can access even more advanced convenience-focused features:
