Five iterations are available for this year's Hyundai Elantra, each with tech-forward cabins, stylish exterior appeal, and its own set of appointments. Let's dive into what makes each of these 2026 Hyundai Elantra trim levels unique.
The Hyundai Elantra SE is the base model, starting the lineup off with a range of standard convenience and comfort appointments for an enjoyable drive every time you hop inside. While editions of the Elantra are highly efficient, the SE has the highest EPA-estimated fuel rating at 31/40/35 MPG (City/Highway/Combined),1 making it an excellent choice for your morning commute and school pickups and dropoffs. Plus, its robust technology features help you stay connected and safe on the road.
If you're in the area, stop by our Wentzville, MO, dealership to explore the Elantra SE with these and other appointments:
Next up is the second-tier Hyundai Elantra SEL Sport, delivering more convenience, technology, and comfort. It upgrades your compact sedan from 15-inch wheels, standard with the previously mentioned SE, to 17-inch alloys and adds a hands-free smart trunk release. While it carries over many other exterior appointments, such as LED headlamps and daytime running lights, solar glass, and black trimming, you will find some notable cabin upgrades, such as the following:
As the third trim in the lineup, the SEL Sport Premium balances premium amenities with high value. This mid-tier edition sports machine-finished, 17-inch alloy wheels for a more aggressive look, and gives drivers a host of other enhancements, such as the following:

You'll find plenty of elevated technology and creature comforts at this level, like larger displays and premium upholstery. Here's what you can expect with the Elantra Limited:
Last but certainly not least, the new Hyundai Elantra N Line comes with large 18-inch alloy wheels, a more powerful 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that makes up to 201 horsepower, a 7-speed DCT, unique seats, and a multi-link independent rear suspension. Here are some appointments you'll find:
