The 2009 Elantra Touring is not the same vehicle as the Elantra Sedan. Instead the Touring exchanges the Sedan's bloated forms and curvy lines for new curves that come off as a modern and strikingly European. Though the Touring is neither as sporty as a Mazda3 nor as Cool looking as the Scion xB, it is still a very practical for young small family. In short the Elanta Touring is not a pretentious vehicle but one that is very well built and though out out. On the outside of this wagon you get projector headlamps and chrome accents all around and even extended to alloy rims. Though the chrome on the wheel and elsewhere on the vehicle is just painted plastic it still helps to add value and overall appeal.

On the inside, the vehicle features a simply laid out dash with large easy to read knobs and basic gages. The back seat provides plenty off room and comfort for my six foot frame even with front seat all the way back. The flat folding rear seats add versatility and increase storage volume with ease.
