Multiple. International. Awards. It. Has continued, to win awards in, the years since. One.

And Customer. Oriented features, in. A segment with, fierce competition we've, made many recent, improvements. To advanced elantris, market, position, and maintain its status as a potent weapon in our product, arsenal and today. We. Bring you an all-new. Model redesigned. From, the ground up. For.

Are daring, with, cutting-edge design and advanced, technologies, and we, are returning, Elantra. To, its sporty. Roots for. All the junk disruptors. Who, are ready to challenge the status quo. We. Are supremely, confident, that, the all-new, Elantra, will, hit its, mark, watch. Ladies. And gentlemen, introducing, the all-new. 2021. Hyundai. Elantra. Introducing. The senior designer, of Hyundai design North America. Davis, Lee. Wow. That. Was, cool. Do. You feel the passion we have for the new Elantra, I sure. Do. Hello. Everyone, and thank. You for joining our livestream. Ever. Since we were first inspired, by the initial, concept, for the new Elantra. We. On the design team have eagerly, awaited. This global reveal moment. Now. Let's, go back to the past for a second in. 1990. Exactly. 30 years ago the. First Elantra. Made its world debut full. Of passion, and aspiration. It. Seemed, that nothing. Could dentists confidence, even. If that something was. A portion. As. Hyundai's, first. Sports. Sedan. Elantra. Has been loved around, the world. Compact. Yes. But. More charismatic than, anything. Today. I cannot. Hide my excitement, to, introduce, the second, model infused. With Hyundai's, new design identity. Sensuous. Sportiness. Which. Maximizes. Emotional. Value, to customers, and, harmonizes. With innovative. Engineering, solutions. Elantra. Is a perfect, combination of four design elements. Proportion. Architecture. Styling. And, technology. Some. Might think that a launch was vivid, lively. Character has, faded over the years well. Our. 2021. Redesigned. Brings, Elantra. Back, to its roots as a, statement, of ambition. We're. Returning Elantra, to, its origin, as a sporty. Dynamic. Fun. To drive car and we're. Giving it the most progressive in vehicle. Experience, in its class. The. Seventh, generation Elantra. Is a six that, never forgets its beginning. And spirit. We. Proudly, say its design, will, rock the boat in the, compact, sedan, market.
To. Do so we've, based our new model, on an all-new. Third, generation. Platform. The. New platform, dramatically. Changes, Elantras. Proportions. Its. Shape is wider. Longer. And lower. Than ever. It. Has what we call a, sporty. Four-door coupe look with, the sleek fastback, roofline and, a, forward leaning wet stance it is. More, emotionally. Expressive and more. Exciting, to drive, so. What. Makes a new Elantra, so special. What. Makes it stand out of the crowd, first. It dares, to break the established, rules. Triangles. Are seldom used in car design they're, taboo, and most designers, try to avoid them, but. Our sixth, generation launched, our facelift, in, 2019. Helped, us transition, to the ultimate, example of. Triangular. Design that, you see before you now the. Second, thing that makes a launcher special, is that it, is a perfect, expression, of digital. Design technology. We. Use cutting-edge, engineering and, molding, techniques, rather, than conventional. Drawings, or sketches. This. Is the integration, of design, and engineering, solutions. That we strongly, emphasize, all, the time, our. Goal was to give elantra more, character, and emotional. Appeal, and we, did that with a strategy called, parametric. Dynamics. We. Use parametric, shapes, and textures, to give it an edgy. Aggressive. Look and we. Cascaded, those shapes throughout, the entire car. You. First notice them on the front end in the, parametric, jewel pattern, grille. Also. We created, an integrated. Architecture with. The LED, headlamps, and harmonizes. Shades of the air curtain, and lower, fascia to, create a strong, graphic. The. Funnin feels very, charismatic. And futuristic. Edgier. And more. Aggressive. From. The side the, long hood and for, leaning, profile, create, a feeling of tension and define. Elantra as a car, with attitude. A bold. Edge runs from the front of the car to, the rear and well, refined, crystal, shapes cascade. Throughout even. Into the wheels reflecting. Lights we. Accented, the parametric. Surfaces, with three sharp, lines that meet, this. Staring, figure. Usually. Avoided in car design is, a, mark, of Elantras. Disrupter. Spirit. We. Kept the angular, theme going, in the rear of the car, extending. One, horizontal, line across the, centre of the trunk to, the edges, and we. Used hi-tech. Taillights, to form a flying H logo, shape. To. Enhance the fastback, coupe look we, gave the rear glass a black, deck accent, and added. A wing type lower, bumper treatment. The. Wide proportions. That define, the, outside, of the car, continued. On the inside. We. Connected, low and wide structures, from the door to the center console to, create an immersive cocoon. That, surrounds, the driver like, an aircraft cockpit. The. Immersive interface. Consists. Of two white displays. Harmoniously. Connected, under single elegant. Piece of glass. The. Angled touchscreen, is easy for the driver to see and control. The. Interior, gives a driver access, to the latest technology and, the, confidence, to use it. We. Finish the driver or into layout with a high console, and framed. It on the right with the unique, passenger. Cornering, grip, we. Gave the interior, slim. High-tech, vents and, customizable. 64. Color move lighting to enhance the futuristic. Feeling, of the, car. Now. Before, I finish I like, to share my story. I've. Worked here in America, for about eight, years and I. Actually quite, enjoy, sitting, in my car driving. On the highway for. Hours. Seriously. Maybe. It's because I, can see at a glance. Hundreds. Thousands. Of cars all. With, different looks in a, huge space. As. A young and passionate designer, I, always. Think in, this, very crowded. And highly. Competitive market, I want. Something new. Outstanding. And, destructive. Of the, status, quo. Ladies. And gentlemen I dare. To say it was, very rewarding for us to be part of writing new. History, in Haeundae. You.
