The timing is a bit too early for a facelift but saw a shot of an Elantra with a different front. Looks like a preparation of an auto show:

I talked to a Hyundai dealer today, and was told that the 5-door should be in the showroom in February. I hope he is right.

I wonder how this compares to what we'll get in the U.S.? For example, will it offer the auto climate control here (I doubt it), and will it have ESC standard (I recall seeing something about that in an earlier announcement)?

I actually hope that it will not have the automatic climate control. On in our family has that, and it seems rather complicated. I think it was Hyundai who said it would have ESC as standard. Only car to have it for under $15000. An earlier photo shows the Touring with a luggage rack, and that looks much sportier imo. Can't wait to see the real thing.

You are talking about under $15,000 after discounts/rebates, right? I doubt the Elantra Touring will start at under $15k with the equipment that has been described in Hyundai press releases. I figure it will go for at least $17k with the MT, maybe a little more since the SE sedan starts at just under $17k including destination.

Backy. I saw it on Edmunds.$13995 incl. $600 dest. for the GLS and $15000 for the Touring. Google 2009 Elantra Touring.
Maybe Hyundai will have a GLS and a SE Touring model.

$17K MSRP may be too high to be competitive against Matrix and Vibe as they are both LOWERING their prices for the 2009 models due next month.

OK, I thought we were talking about an Elantra Touring that will have ESC and alloys standard, i.e. equipped similar to the SE sedan. If there is a version of the Touring under $15k, and it has ESC/traction standard (unlike the base sedan), that will be an incredible bargain. I wonder if that means that Hyundai will add ESC standard to the GLS sedan for 2009?
