Compare The Hyundai Elantra to the Ford Focus in Torrance, CA

 

See How the Hyundai Elantra Compares to the Ford Focus

Buying a compact car in Torrance is a solid choice if you're looking for an efficient vehicle that has no trouble navigating busy streets or getting in and out of parking spaces. The Hyundai Elantra is a sleek and stylish compact sedan that offers an efficient range of engines and a robust roster of tech features, so it's an excellent pick for drivers in the Redondo Beach and Los Angeles areas who want a small, commuter-friendly car.

So, how does the Elantra stack up against rivals like the Ford Focus? We compared the two and found that the Elantra is a stronger contender thanks to its value, efficiency, tech, and sophistication.

Interior Features

One of the joys of driving a Hyundai Elantra is the fact that despite being a compact car, it makes the most of its space so that you never feel cramped or like you have nowhere to put anything. The Elantra has about five cubic feet more passenger space, which makes a difference, especially in the rear seats. The Focus may feel a bit cramped, but the Elantra has legroom to spare!

The Elantra also offers more trunk space so that you can carry more gear along for the ride. With up to 14.4 cubic feet of trunk space, you don't have to worry about finding room for your stuff.

 

Efficiency

Both compact cars offer a variety of engines to choose from, and you can go with either an automatic or manual transmission to suit your preferences. The Ford Focus' base engine pulls ahead of the Elantra's base engine in terms of horsepower but falls behind again with regards to fuel economy. So, if you value efficiency, the Elantra can help you go further for less so that you can spend more time adventuring around Long Beach and Carson, CA.

The Elantra even offers an Eco trim, which offers up to 32 city/40 highway miles per gallon, outperforming the Ford Focus' best fuel economy efforts.

Safety

Hyundai models tend to dominate when it comes to safety ratings, and the Hyundai Elantra is no exception. While both the Elantra and the Focus boast excellent crash test scores, the Elantra edges out its competition with available driver-assist tech that helps it earn recognition from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

The Hyundai Elantra offers a robust roster of advanced safety features known as Hyundai SmartSense. This collection of driver-aids includes available features such as a forward collision-avoidance assist system, lane keeping assist, smart cruise control, a blind spot monitor, and even a driver attention warning system.

Many of the Elantra's advanced safety features are standard on most trims while similar features are only available at the top of the Focus' trim tiers. So, if you're looking for a small car that's packed with the latest safety tech, you can find what you need on the Elantra without having to shoot for the top-of-the-line trim level.
