    I bought a 2023 Elantra SEL with the convenience package in September of 2022, driven over 20k miles and I love it. Drives very smooth, i dont even feel it shift. I got the SEL so not hybrid but i get 46 mpg at 75 mph, 52 mpg at 60 mph and 38-40 mpg in the city. The driver assist features are great, i basically dont have to do anything when i get on the highway until i leave the highway or if the lines break. It's the best handling car I've driven by far, I've driven a couple of bmws and Mercedes. I also have a 100k mile warranty on everything and a lifetime powertrain warranty which was the biggest selling point tbh

      The U.S. launch of the Civic Hybrid is still months away, so there are as yet no EPA fuel consumption numbers available. But on Europe's WLTP combined test cycle, the Civic e:HEV hatch is rated at 50 mpg, and road testers running long term cars in the UK have reported between 38 mpg and 48 mpg in real world running conditions.
      For context, the CR-V Hybrid's official EPA city/highway/combined fuel economy numbers are 40/34/38 mpg.

    You can tell Scotty hasn't driven that generation Elantra with a CVT. My wife has a 2022 one (and I hate CVTs too). But that CVT is awesome. They call theirs IVTs. But when you are a little aggressive with the throttle, it changes the transmission to preset shift points and it feels identical to a standard geared transmission. And it's QUICK. And it's a non-turbo.

    Scotty my 2024 Kia Soul CVT tranny doesn't seem to have any hesitation TBH about it. However I'm an 81yo rather conservative driver that strays basically no more than 10% over the limit. Its very smooth in fact. Longevity? Of course I have no clue but I needed that big warranty in case something serious goes amiss. Like it or not CVT is here to stay and in fact within 5 years you're gonna be hard pressed to find a geared auto tranny. Yep the writing is on the wall. My suggestion regarding these things is to keep the lead atta your foot! My brother recently rode with me and he could not believe the easy egress for such a physically small exterior. He was impressed with how quiet it was as well for such a "cheap" (if you can call ANY new vehicle cheap) vehicle.

    I got a similar set-up, (I believe), with a 2017 Kia Niro PHEV with the dual-clutch and 1.6 liter engine. Been changing fluids regularly and so far nothing amiss. Transmission fluid was quite easy to change because if you overfill it will drip out, so you know when you are done. I think best to be wary of the dual clutch "actuator" fluid which seems to get dirty quite fast. But also very easy to check, drain and refill.

    My only experience with a CVT really is on my new-ish Civic, and after getting used to it, I honestly like it better than every other automatic transmission I've used. Now when I drive cars with automatic transmissions, it bugs me how the torque drops off momentarily while it shifts gears, to the point where I'd rather have the "lag" (albeit minimal) with more constant torque of the CVT. Am I crazy?

    Ideally, I wouldn't get either a CVT or a DCT in my car, but if I have to choose, I'd much sooner pick the former. Both have their drivability issues, but CVTs are far more reliable, especially the eCVT used in Toyota hybrids (which is a different design than regular CVTs). Hyundai has had a lot of issues with the DCTs used in their gasoline vehicles (I think there's even a class action suit) and there's no reason to think that the DCT on this hybrid would fare any better. And this is not a Hyundai-specific problem either since there's no car brand that I can think of that hasn't had issues with their DCTs! So, I'm surprised by Scotty's positive review to say the least, especially since he always trashes Hyundai's! Maybe the 'big' owner standing by was a factor, lol.

Coil pack issues around 52,000 miles...i was told the 2018 had a recall but not the 2017...coil packs were replaced under warranty though. Last winter, around 105,000 miles, it started having cold start issues. Thing sounds like it wants to die until it's warmed up. Someone recommended i try keeping it in my garage to see if that helps, but I don't think that person recognizes their privilege because my house doesn't have a garage 😅 outside of these issues, it hasn't been a bad vehicle.

    If Hyundai/Kia would pull their heads out of their full point of contact and fix the engine issues they have had now for several years now, they would be solid cars. Have a 2018 Sorento and other than the oil burn issue, it's been a good vehicle. Son has a 2018 Forte (Elantra sister) and it's been ok as well and it has a regular 6 speed trans. If you don't know what I mean about oil burn issue, look it up.

    Hello.. Automatic with double clutch can also be a variant of the horrible POWERSHIFT that Ford started with on the Mondeo mk4
    A gearbox with a lot of problems!
    It's the double clutches in oil that are the big problem here.
    they are not designed to be easily replaced.
    1. Can't pull as heavily loaded behind the car.
    2. Have to change the oil relatively often.
    3. Problems with oil solonoids, valves.
    4. Vibration during acceleration caused by clutch.
    Avoid cars with powershift. There were more than just fords that used powershift!
