The company has also revealed that the Elantra will be a connected car, which means that it will come with the Bluelink technology. It will come with 34 Hyundai Blue Link features, out of which 10 features are exclusively India specific. The system also offers to Share My Car feature which allows the car owner (Primary user) to share the Blue Link services with his/her family/friends (Secondary user). Blue Link registered secondary user can use the Blue Link services of Primary user’s car from his mobile app.
The car will also offer a bunch of remote access features like – remote engine on/off, remote climate control, along with remote door lock/unlock, horn honk and light, vehicle status and find my car function. In addition to that, Hyundai has also confirmed that the upcoming Elantra will be equipped with a BSVI compliant petrol engine.
Keeping in mind all the updates, the prices of the Elantra facelift are expected to be higher than what they currently are and go upto Rs 14.5 lakh and since only the petrol will be available for now, this will be very competitive pricing.
