2025 Hyundai Elantra Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 Hyundai Elantra is available in five main trim levels: SE, SEL Sport, SEL Convenience, N Line and Limited. The Elantra Hybrid and the high-performance Elantra N are reviewed separately on Edmunds. The regular Elantra SE, SEL Sport, SEL Convenience and Limited trims come with a 147-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that's paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive. The sporty N Line has a 201-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter engine and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Keep reading for a rundown of the most significant features that come on each trim level.
