The two choices for engine are the four-cylinder 2.0-liter that can achieve 161 horsepower and the 1.6-liter inline, four-cylinder engine that can get 201 horsepower. The 1.6L is the component that comes with the Sport version of the Elantra, whereas the 2.0L comes standard on the Elantra GT.
To match the more aggressive look of the Sport, there are 18" wheels (versus 17" ones), multi-link independent rear suspension, full LED headlights, and a sport badge. On the inside of the car, cloth and leather seats are available, with the leather coming with the Sport Elantra. In addition, the Sport automatically comes with heated front seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
