Had a chance to do quite a few miles in my parents '13 Elantra over the past few weeks out west...

The Good...

Economy! car really gets exceptional mileage, engine is reasonably "peppy", quite roomy, styling.

The Bad...

Rough idle, suspension lacks refinement.

The Ugly...

Sight lines, lots of blind spots (front pillars when turning, high rump when backing up, low seating for entry.
