2025 Hyundai Elantra

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 Elantra.

The 2025 Hyundai Elantra is a compact sedan whose powertrain is serviced by 4.2 quarts of oil running viscosity grades of 20W-40, 20W-50, or 10W-30 API, placing it squarely in Hyundai's mainstream four-door lineup. With zero recalls and just 21 owner complaints logged across a model history stretching from 1992 through 2026, this model year stands as the lowest-complaint year on record — a sharp contrast to the 2013 model's 1,325 complaints, the worst in the Elantra's history. That distinction matters for researchers: the 2025 represents the most statistically trouble-free point in the Elantra's long run, even if its top complaint area remains vaguely categorized under "Unknown or Other," suggesting that whatever issues owners are reporting haven't yet coalesced into a recognizable pattern.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2025 Hyundai Elantra sits at the lowest point of a sharp downward trend in federal records for its generation, following a steady decline from 128 complaints and 6 recalls in 2021 down to just 21 complaints and 0 recalls in 2025. Compared to the preceding 2024 model year, which had 52 complaints and 1 recall, the 2025 model cuts complaints by more than half and eliminates all recalls and investigations, indicating substantial manufacturing improvements. The 21 complaints recorded for 2025 are primarily concentrated in the "Unknown or Other" and "Lane Departure" categories with 4 each, alongside 3 crash complaints and 0 fire complaints. Although the data does not specify the root causes for these specific issues, the drastically reduced volume implies Hyundai has successfully ironed out earlier generational teething problems. Given its position at the mature, trouble-free end of the reliability arc, the 2025 model is a highly recommended year to buy on the used market.
