Hyundai will offer in the Elantra facelift in three variants: S, SX and SX (O). The base-spec S variant misses out on the 6-speed automatic transmission option while the top-spec SX(O) variant does not come with the 6-speed manual gearbox. It is only the SX variant which gets choice of both the transmission options. 

The five colour options for the 2019 Elantra are: Phantom Black, Marina Blue, Fiery Red, Polar White and Typhoon Silver. In terms of features, Hyundai will offer the BlueLink connected car tech in the new Elantra like the Venue.

A BS6-compliant 2.0-litre petrol unit will likely be offered on the Elantra facelift which produces 152PS of max power and 192Nm of peak torque. It can be had with either a 6-speed manual or torque converter transmission options. Though Hyundai has not mentioned anything about a diesel unit, it may offer the Seltos’ BS6-compliant 1.5-litre diesel powertrain in the Elantra in the future.

Hyundai will launch the Elantra facelift on October 3 this year and has opened bookings for the same. The current pricing of the Elantra ranges from Rs 13.82 lakh to Rs 18.92 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) and we expect the facelifted Elantra to charge a premium of Rs 25,000 more. After its launch, it will continue to rival the likes of the Skoda Octavia, Honda Civic and the Toyota Corolla Altis.
