The Elantra (codename J1) was launched in October 1990, and received a mid-term facelift in 1993.

It was sold in Europe from the spring of 1991. It replaced the somewhat larger on the outside Stellar, although that model had not been offered in many markets. The Elantra competed with the likes of the Ford Sierra and Vauxhall Cavalier/Opel Vectra, but at a considerably lower price.

The Elantra was powered by a Mitsubishi-designed 1.6 L (1595 cc) straight-four. This DOHC 16-valve 1.6 L unit produced {{cvt|113|PS|kW|0}} at 6000 rpm and could push the Elantra to {{convert|60|mph|km/h|abbr=on}} in 9.5 seconds. The quarter-mile (0.4 km) run took 17.1 seconds and produced {{cvt|80|mph|km/h|0|disp=flip}}. Top speed was {{cvt|187|km/h|mph|0}}. The Elantra got {{convert|22|mpgus|L/100km|abbr=on}} in the city cycle. Starting in 1993 a Mitsubishi-designed 1.8 L (1836 cc) inline-four option was available; this unit produces {{cvt|135|PS|kW|0}} at 6000 rpm and replaced the twin-cam 1.6 in the home market.

The vehicle featured ABS brakes, front airbags, fog lamps, power-operated side mirrors, and optional alloy seven-spoke wheels.

Between 1995 and 1998, the first-generation Elantra was also produced and sold for the Indonesian market as the Bimantara Nenggala, it is only available in there with 1.6 L engine.

The second generation (codename RD or J2) was launched in 1995, offered as a sedan and station wagon. It was sold in the South Korean market as the "Hyundai Avante" in sedan form and "Avante Touring" in the wagon body style. Some export markets such as Australia and Europe received the series as the "Hyundai Lantra" as per the first generation. Australian market wagons were given the "Lantra Sportswagon" name.

New grilles arrived in 1998 for the 1999 model year. The Lantra in Europe converged into a single-front end design, for both sedan and wagon. The model received the "RD2" or "J3" model codes. A PSA-built 1.9 L naturally-aspired diesel option was also added for some European markets, producing {{convert|68|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

A new 2.0 L engine option became available. In Australia, the GLS model was an upgrade on the GL model and offered the 2.0 L engine, velour trim, softer cloth seats, and alloy wheels. The GLS had body-coloured rear license plate light holder and exterior side-view mirrors.

An all-new model (codename XD) was launched in 2000. The station wagon version was dropped in favor of a five-door Liftback. Starting in 2001, all American models came with standard front and front-side airbags, air conditioning, power locks, power windows, and power steering. This simplified dealer inventories and repairs and also sought to improve Hyundai's image of "value" cars.

In 2004, all models were refreshed (codename XD2); this introduced new headlights and tail lights, a new grille, updated front and rear bumpers with a split lower grille, a redesigned hood and trunk lid, and a redesigned dashboard that added more functionality.

The GLS trim was the base model standard for the Elantra. The top-of-the-line model, the GT trim, came with a stiffer suspension, leather seats, fog lights, alloy wheels, lip spoiler, and blue-lit instrument cluster. Offered as a Liftback since 2001 as a 2002 model year vehicle, the only options for the GT were a power moonroof and anti-lock brakes with traction control. The only major option was a Kenwood MP3/CD deck. The GT trim sedan was introduced in 2003 and discontinued in 2005. The GT trim was replaced for the 2006 model year with the Limited trim, which featured new paint colours, a chrome vertical grille, leather interior with leather steering wheel and leather shifter and wood trim. The Limited trim featured steel rims with a 6-spoke cover featured in the GLS model. The GT trim for the five-door was produced for the remainder of the 2006 model year.

Canadian trim levels differed from that in the US: "GT" models came standard with alloy wheels, four-wheel disc brakes and ABS. Leather upholstery and TCS were only available on the "premium" GT edition.

The XD was available with 1.6-, 1.8- and 2.0-litre petrol engines and a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel. North American models are available only with the 2.0-litre petrol engine. The 1.8-litre engine is a 1.6-litre engine modified for the New Zealand market.

While compact on the outside, it was listed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as a mid-size car because of a spacious interior. Although the basic powertrain design had changed little since the second generation, fuel economy improved for Elantras with manual transmissions from an EPA city rating of {{convert|24|to|25|mpgus|L/100 km mpgimp|abbr=on}}, and further to {{convert|27|mpgus|L/100 km mpgimp|abbr=on}} in 2006. Cars with automatic transmissions returned {{convert|23|mpgus|L/100 km mpgimp|abbr=on}}, a reduction of {{convert|3|mpgus|mpgimp|abbr=on}}.Horsepower improved from {{convert|135|to|138|hp|kW|abbr=on}}, and torque from 132 to 136, mainly due to the addition of continuously variable valve timing (CVVT) in 2004. Originally, the horsepower rating was misrepresented as {{convert|140|hp|kW|abbr=on}}. In 2006, the Elantra was offered with a SULEV emission rated engine in some US states.

In China, the Elantra XD was produced by Beijing Hyundai from 23 December 2003 to 2011. This car has been used as a taxicab in Beijing since 2005 and replaced the popular red Tianjin Xiali taxi in 2006 in an effort to cut down pollution. The Elantra is available in 5 door Liftback for 2007 and sedan form from 2003 to 2010. Pre facelifted models of the Elantra XD were produced for the 2004 model year and had a facelift in 2007 consisting of new headlights, radiator, rear foglights on the rear bumper, and new wheels. Production ran up to 2010.{{Cite web|url=https://car.autohome.com.cn/photo/2908/1/363026.html#pvareaid=2042264|title=2007 Hyundai Elantra front|website=car.autohome.com.cn}}{{Cite web|url=https://car.autohome.com.cn/photo/2908/1/363019.html#pvareaid=2042264|title=2007 Hyundai Elantra rear|website=car.autohome.com.cn}} It was facelifted again for the 2011 model year featuring new front and rear lights, bumpers, a single rear bumper fog light, radiator and power-folding mirrors with integrated turn signals. A 1.6-litre engine is available on taxi and passenger cars paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. A 1.8-litre engine was available until 2007.

A redesigned sedan (designated HD) debuted at the 2006 New York International Auto Show for the 2007 model year. As before, the HD was sold under the Hyundai Avante name in its South Korean home market. It had a more rounded, jelly bean-like design used in the US in the 1990s.[https://motorweek.org/fyi/35-years-of-automotive-style/ 35 Years of Automotive Styling], Motor Week, Episode 3505, Episode 3517

The engine lineup included 1.6- Gamma and 2.0 L Beta II petrol inline-four engines, and a 1.6 L turbodiesel inline-four. All engines featured improved fuel economy. A five-speed manual transmission was standard with an optional four-speed automatic.

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) the Elantra received a Good overall score in the frontal crash test and a Marginal overall score in the side impact test, but all Hyundai Elantras manufactured after November 2009 earned a Good overall score in the side impact test.{{cite web |url=http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=739 |title=IIHS-HLDI: Hyundai Elantra |publisher=Iihs.org |date=17 December 2008 |access-date=29 October 2009 |archive-date=10 October 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091010234406/http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=739 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web |url=http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=1079 |title=IIHS-HLDI: Hyundai Elantra |publisher=Iihs.org |date=17 December 2008 |access-date=29 October 2009 |archive-date=10 October 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091010233821/http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=1079 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web |url=http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=1286 |title=IIHS-HLDI: Hyundai Elantra |publisher=Iihs.org |date=23 February 2010 |access-date=22 March 2010 |archive-date=7 April 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100407195423/http://www.iihs.org/ratings/rating.aspx?id=1286 |url-status=dead }} Standard side airbags included front and rear head curtain airbags and front seat-mounted torso airbags.

Beijing Hyundai launched a redesigned Elantra called the "Elantra Yue Dong" for the Chinese market with an updated exterior and a separate facelifted 2011 Elantra model. The model was later updated in 2017 and is currently known as the Hyundai Celesta.

Only the 2.0 L engine was offered in North America. Unlike the 2006 model year XD series, the 2007 model year base Hyundai Elantra GLS trim did not include air conditioning as standard equipment, but added side curtain airbags (previously front and side only), active head restraints and all-round disc brakes with four-channel ABS. The Elantra offered the most interior room in its class, leading the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to classify it as a mid-size car.

Hyundai offered the Hyundai i30 wagon in the U.S. and Canada marketed as the "Elantra Touring". Elsewhere, the same vehicle was marketed as the Hyundai i30cw.

• 2008 model year: the "Limited" trim level was dropped, leaving "GLS" and "SE" trim choices. The SE trim included features not available on the "GLS" such as a telescopic steering wheel and electronic stability control (ESC), with sunroof and leather upholstery as options. According to Consumer Reports testing, the "SE" trim has significantly better handling and braking than the base "GLS" trim.
• 2009 model year: iPod and USB interfaces became standard on the "SE" models. On the instrument panel, the gear shift indicator moved to the trip computer display, and the coolant temperature gauge was removed. "GLS" models received new wheel cover designs, and "SE" models had a rear garnish on the rear registration plate border. Exterior colour choices now included Natural Khaki. The 2009 model year was J.D.

• 2010 model year: a new "Blue" trim was added, a basic model modified for increased fuel economy. The grille design was slightly modified and "Blue" and "GLS" models received chrome rear garnish. The interior received chrome door handles, new metallic interior finish, cup holders, and a chrome-trimmed gear selector for "SE" models. On "GLS" and "SE" models automatic transmission became standard, while the lesser "Blue" models only offered manual. The "GLS" offered sunroof or an LG navigation system; "SE" included a choice of two packages: a sunroof with heated seats or a sunroof with heated seats, LG navigation and Bluetooth. iPod and USB connectivity became standard on the "GLS" and available on the "Blue". Exterior colour choices were slightly changed, with Nordic White and Black Noir Pearl replacing the Captiva White and Black Pearl, respectively; Purple Rain was deleted.

Canadian trim levels were different from the US models. The base model "L" offered a base package with a four-speaker CD/MP3/Auxiliary stereo and front airbags. This trim included power windows in the front with manual windows in the rear. The "GL" added heated mirrors, air conditioning, power windows, heated seats, a six-speaker stereo, wheel-mounted cruise control, and keyless entry with alarm. The "GLS" trim added wheel-mounted audio controls, ABS, all-round disc brakes, and front seat-mounted side-impact and roof-mounted side curtain airbags. The "GLS" with the Sport Package included a rear spoiler, power sunroof, 16-inch alloy wheels, fog lamps, trip computer and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and leather shifter. The final trim level, the "Limited", added leather seats, a telescopic steering wheel, and automatic climate control air conditioning.

Hyundai presented the LPI Hybrid at the 2009 Seoul Motor Show, and sales began as the Avante "LPI Hybrid" in the South Korean market in July 2009. The LPI Hybrid (liquefied petroleum injected) is a mild hybrid and is the world's first hybrid electric vehicle to be powered by an internal combustion engine built to run on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as a fuel.{{cite press release|url=http://www.hyundai-blog.com/index.php/2009/07/10/hyundai-elantra-lpi-hybrid-official-press-release/ |title=Hyundai Elantra LPi hybrid official press release |publisher=Hyundai Motor Company |date=10 July 2009 |access-date=23 March 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20090717044912/http://www.hyundai-blog.com/index.php/2009/07/10/hyundai-elantra-lpi-hybrid-official-press-release |archive-date=17 July 2009 }}{{cite press release |url=https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/releases/324 |title=Hyundai Unveils Elantra LPI HEV at Seoul Motor Show |publisher=Hyundai Global News |date=2 April 2009 |access-date=23 March 2010}} Hyundai developed the technology and all key components in the LPI Hybrid, together with its local partners including the electric motor, battery and low DC/DC converter. The lithium-ion polymer batteries, which the LPI Hybrid was the first hybrid to adopt, differed from lithium-ion batteries, using a claimedly more stable and fire-resistant dry polymer electrolyte from Korean company LG Chem instead of a liquid or gel.

The LPI Hybrid came equipped with the 1.6 L Gamma engine, a {{convert|15|kW|hp}} electric motor, and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The LPI Hybrid delivered {{convert|41.9|mpgus}}. Compared to the conventional 1.6 L model, and considering South Korean petrol prices, the LPI Hybrid can travel {{convert|39|km|mi}} for the price of one litre of petrol, while the conventional model would be able to travel only {{convert|15|km|mi}}. The engine emitted 99 g/km of {{CO2}}, which allows the car to qualify as a Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle (SULEV). The LPI Hybrid produced 90 percent fewer emissions than an equivalent standard petrol powered model, and LPG is a low carbon emitting hydrocarbon fuel that burns more cleanly than either petrol or diesel, and also is free of the particulates associated with diesel.{{cite web|url= http://www.hybridautonews.net/hyundai-lpi-elantra-hybrid.html |title=Hyundai LPI Elantra Hybrid |publisher=Hybrid Auto News |date=16 June 2009 |access-date=8 October 2010 }} {{dead link|date=April 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} The LPI Hybrid shares its powertrain with the Kia Forte LPI Hybrid.{{cite web |url=http://www.goauto.com.au/mellor/mellor.nsf/story2/716D7EE067B3EC81CA2575E5000A15A4 |title=Next-gen battery technology set for market debut in Hyundai gas-hybrid |publisher=GoAuto.com.au |date=30 June 2009 |first=Philip |last=Lord |access-date=18 October 2010 |archive-date=14 October 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091014203255/http://goauto.com.au/mellor/mellor.nsf/story2/716D7EE067B3EC81CA2575E5000A15A4 |url-status=dead }}

The sixth generation Elantra was launched in South Korea as the Avante in September 2015. The design of the car was resculpted to a more conservative appearance compared to the previous generation. The "fluidic sculpture" design that had persisted across the Hyundai portfolio since 2011 was reshaped with the sixth generation Elantra. The car is now more like a fastback with its roofline sloped from the windshield to the rear of the car and it has fewer curves overall with pentagonal head and taillights, a hexagonal grille, and redesigned body panels and bumper emphasizing straight lines along the body. The windshield is drawn back from the hood further than the prior generation, making for a more traditional sedan look. The interior is also less curved, with a cockpit, audio/temp controls, and glove compartment in a single bow line across the dash. This was done without reducing the interior cabin space of the prior generation.

In India, the AD series Hyundai Elantra launched on 23 August 2016 with petrol and diesel engine options.

Mitsubishi Motors Australia complained that the Hyundai Elantra was too close to the Elante trim level, which was last used on the 1991 Magna. British Lotus Cars and South Korean Kia Motors said that the Elantra name was too close to the Lotus Elan and its Kia counterpart. Germany's Audi, meanwhile, complained that "Avante" was too close to Avant (used for Audi station wagons/estates). In 2001, both the Elan and the Elante had ceased production but the Avante's renaming remained necessary as Audi owned the Avant name in Europe and continued to produce it. Because of these naming problems, the Elantra received "Lantra" badges in many markets while "Avante" was mainly used in the South Korean domestic market.
