My 2013 automatic Elantra is averaging 39mpg. Our differences are explained with only 15% city driving, inflating tires to 40psi (drop down with lots of rain or snow), reduced speed, slow acceleration, getting the tranny into highest gears for a given speed, & my favorite, use of 100% ethanol-free gasoline, which has increased mpg by 3.

Our 2013 Elantra is now in the hands of a family member, who needed a car & loves the Elantra. We got a new 2016 manual tranny Elantra, which performs as well as the 2013 auto Elantra. My first tank of dealer paid, 100% ethanol-free gasoline, I test drove to 40+mpg-calculated. Later, the EPA rated 38mpg-highway 2016 Elantra gave 46+mpg, with ocean stops for pix & beach walks, some hilly interior travel away from the ocean, & some stop&go I-5 traffic, but mostly heavy but steady travel.
