Elantra GT is the third vehicle in Hyundai's 7/11 product
initiative (seven new or redesigned models in the next 11 months). The
first two vehicles in the initiative were the Veloster Turbo and
refreshed Genesis Coupe. The fourth vehicle is the Elantra Coupe.
LIGHTEST FIVE-DOOR HATCHBACK IN THE COMPACT SEGMENT
Elantra GT's widespread use of high-strength steel provides a
37 percent increase in body stiffness at a lower body weight when
compared to the outgoing Elantra Touring model. High-strength steel
allows the suspension to work optimally. At 2,784 pounds, the automatic
transmission Elantra GT is lighter than its competitors, while offering
more interior room than Focus, Mazda3, Golf and Matrix. Elantra GT is
the lightest five-door hatchback in the compact segment. It is 175
pounds lighter than Focus, 151 pounds lighter than Mazda3 and 222 pounds
lighter than Golf.o This weight-efficient unibody architecture allows
for Elantra to achieve an estimated 39 mpg EPA EPA eicosapentaenoic acid.

electric vehicles, helping Hyundai meet its environmental commitments.
Elantra is also available as an Ultra Low Emission Vehicle A ULEV or Ultra-Low Emissions Vehicle
is a vehicle that has been verified by the California Air Resources Board to emit 50% less polluting
emissions than the average for new cars released in that model year. (ULEV).
Additionally, Elantra GT has an ActiveECO System that modifies engine
and transmission control to smooth out throttle response and increase
real-world fuel economy by up to seven percent.
Key Engine Components
* Aluminum block and head
* Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing Variable valve timing, or VVT, is a generic term for an
automobile piston engine technology. VVT allows the lift or duration or timing (some or all) of the
intake or exhaust valves (or both) to be changed while the engine is in operation. (D-CVVT)

fuel injection, and
* Offset crankshaft
The Nu engine features an aluminum cylinder head, crank and block
with a cast iron cylinder liner. The 1.8-liter Nu also offers Dual
Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT) camshafts and hydraulic
engine mounts for optimum power, efficiency and refinement. Using CVVT CVVT Continuously

just on the intake camshaft. With D-CVVT, there is a two percent
improvement in performance (increased volumetric efficiency), two
percent improvement in fuel economy (reduced pumping loss) and a 30
percent reduction in hydrocarbon emissions. In the valvetrain, roller
swing arms and hydraulic lash adjusters reduce valve driven friction to
improve fuel economy by one percent, compared with direct valve driving.
The Nu engine also features a maintenance-free silent timing chain
system to enhance durability and improve Noise Vibration and Harshness

intake manifolds, resulting in a four percent improvement in
performance, a 15 percent reduction in cost and a 30 percent reduction
in weight.
Another tool Hyundai engineers have incorporated into Elantra GT is
an electronic throttle control. The electronic throttle control replacesthe conventional cable and mechanical linkage with fast responding
electronics. This system accurately controls air intake and engine
torque, improving drivability, response and fuel economy.
The Nu four-cylinder engine also has an offset crankshaft design
that reduces friction between the piston and cylinder piston and cylinder
