Looking to cruise around St. Petersburg in a fuel-efficient vehicle that is stylish and affordable? You may find yourself considering both the 2015 Hyundai Elantra and the 2015 Toyota Corolla in your search. While these cars are similar in some ways, they are more different than alike when it comes to the things that matter most.

Power and Performance
With more torque and more horsepower, the 2015 Hyundai Elantra packs a lot more punch than the Corolla while maintaining impressive fuel efficiency. A tighter turning circle gives you greater control and maneuverability when every inch counts. The Elantra also features disc brakes in both the front and rear, while the Corolla still runs drum brakes in back.
Reliability and Value
Value doesn't just refer to a vehicle's starting price. A car's value is figured in consideration of how much you get for each dollar you spend. This means you really have to look at how something is going to hold up over the long haul. Any new car is great for the first year or so, but a truly valuable vehicle will stand the test of time and keep coming through for you year after year. A good indicator of how reliable a vehicle is going to be is what kind of warranty is offered by its manufacturer. Hyundai steps far ahead in the warranty department, giving you a warranty that covers more than 20,000 additional miles or 2 extra years than the one you'll get with the Corolla.
Comfort and Convenience
For most owners of compact and mid-size cars, trunk space is kind of a big deal. That's why you should know that they Elantra has more cargo volume than the Corolla, allowing more space for groceries, luggage, and whatever else you need to carry. The Elantra also provides a more serene cabin space than its competitors, with many reviewers praising the smooth ride and absence of road noise.
