2017 Hyundai Elantra Photos Leaked

Hyundai wasn’t kidding when it said that the all-new Hyundai Elantra, called Avante AD in its home market, is “just around the corner”, as shots of an undisguised model surfaced on Korean Internet websites.

These pictures are of the Korean Domestic Market (KDM) Avante AD, but there shouldn’t be any notable styling differences over the international 2017MY Hyundai Elantra sedan that will make its US debut at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show in November, before going on sale during the first quarter of 2016.

The all new generation of the Hyundai Elantra borrows plenty of styling cues from the Hyundai Genesis luxury sedan on both the outside and the inside, with more angular designs and a more mature appearance overall.

The smaller compact model will ride on an improved chassis with a retuned suspension. There are no official details on the powertrain options, but it’s believed that Hyundai will offer its new 175 horsepower 1.6-liter T-GDi gasoline engine mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, with the United States also likely getting a 164 horsepower 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four (both units are available on the North America Tucson). Other markets such as Europe may get a 1.4-liter turbocharged gasoline and a choice of diesel units.
