Comfort and Space: Inside the 2026 Elantra
Inside the 2026 Hyundai Elantra, thoughtful design meets passenger-focused functionality. This five-seat compact sedan offers excellent 42.3 inches of front legroom and 38 inches in the rear, so passengers in both rows are comfortable on every drive. Cloth seating is standard, and a leather upgrade on Limited trims is available. The front seats are spacious and supportive, and you’ll find plenty of room for car seats thanks to two complete sets of LATCH connectors in the back.
You’ll have 14.2 cubic feet of trunk space for your groceries, work bags, or road trip luggage. The trunk opening is wide for easy loading, and the rear seatbacks fold down when you need more flexibility. Climate control is another strong point: all models feature automatic climate control, while dual-zone and rear air vents are available on higher trims.
