What do you get for the additional cost of the Hyundai Elantra's tech package?

by @ashutosh.kumarover 1 year ago0 views7 answers
In its higher trims, the Hyundai Elantra is full of tech features. There is a big touchscreen infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, wireless charging and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). These features are impressive, but so too does it add to the car's price tag. But some will argue these tech additions make the Elantra feel more premium, and open up the driving experience. They say others argue that they are unnecessary in a compact car, and prone to problems as the vehicle ages. But the debate doesn't stop there: whether these features actually enhance safety and convenience or are a distraction. But there's also the question of how well Hyundai's tech stacks up against competitors such as Honda and Toyota.

If you love tech like I do, I say go for it. Just be prepared to go through a learning curve – it took me a while to understand the features and make everything work how I want it.

I tested both with and without the tech package, and honestly the base model felt just fine. I think the cool extra features are cool, but not game changers.

This is worth it for me alone with the ADAS features. So much stress is taken out of my daily commute with lane keeping and adaptive cruise control.

I believe it depends upon how long you want to have the car. If it's a lease or you're looking to sell in a couple years the tech package may help with resale value. I would definitely be worried about repair costs on this thing after it's out of warrenty for long-term ownership.

It's nice tech, but there are problems with it. They have had glitches with the digital cluster on my friend's Elantra and the dealership can't seem to fix it. Something to consider.

I didn't get the tech package and don't regret it. I’d rather have better tires or maintenance, and the base infotainment is plenty for me.

Absolutely worth it! The Elantra feels like a much more expensive car thanks to the 10.25 inch screens and wireless CarPlay. That’s one of the main reasons I decided on it over a Civic.
