Monday, July 9, 2012 New on Autos.ca First Drive: 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT Hyundai's Elantra sedan has been a hot seller since its introduction in 2011, for its combination of budget pricing and eye-catching styling. For 2013, Hyundai hopes to expand the appeal of its compact model with the addition of two new variants: a coupe (which we'll profile here soon) and this car, the GT hatchback. The idea, as it is with any automaker offering a variety of body styles, is to attract a wider range of potential buyers. In the case of the hatchback, shoppers who've skipped Hyundai in favour of a Mazda3 Sport, Toyota Matrix or Ford Focus, the cars Hyundai Canada identifies as key competitors.
