Hyundai to relaunch 6th gen Elantra hybrid in Pakistan: What to expect

Hyundai is reportedly planning to relaunch the 6th-generation Elantra hybrid with a 2.0-litre petrol engine in Pakistan, giving competition to Toyota and Honda.

According to the PakWheels report, the company is preparing to reintroduce the older 6th-gen model to its lineup for sale.

The 6th-generation Elantra was previously sold in the Pakistani market with the 2.0-litre ICE. However, on October 25, 2024, Hyundai launched the 7th-generation Elantra with a hybrid powertrain and discontinued the earlier 6th-generation model locally.

According to the report, Hyundai will not depend on leftover kits of the 6th generation. The company has planned to locally assemble the new units at the plant.

• The 6th-generation Elantra ICE will target the same category of customers who want to buy a conventional petrol-powered sedan like the Toyota Corolla or Honda City Aspire.
