About The 2026 Hyundai Elantra Lease
The 2026 Hyundai Elantra is advertised at $249 a month for 36 months on the SEL Sport Plus trim (MSRP $25,745), with $3,599 due at signing and 10,000 miles a year. The Elantra starts at $22,825 MSRP with a dealer invoice of about $22,140 for the SE. It's offered in 6 trims: SE ($22,825), SEL Sport ($23,950), SEL Sport Plus ($24,450), SEL Sport Premium ($25,275), Limited ($27,375), N Line ($29,600). Advertised lease payments assume a selling price near MSRP, so negotiating the price toward invoice lowers your payment. Closing the full $685 gap would cut about $19 a month.

Dealers set the actual selling price.
- 4Estimated lease payment by trim. AutoFinder estimate made by scaling the advertised SEL Sport Plus payment by each trim's starting MSRP. This is not an offer from any manufacturer, lender, or dealer. Actual payments depend on residual value, money factor, incentives, credit approval, and dealer pricing, and exclude taxes and fees.
- 5Finance payment estimate. AutoFinder calculated $439 per month by financing $22,146 (the advertised MSRP less $3,599 down) over 60 months at 7% APR with $0 applied for a trade-in. These are AutoFinder's assumptions. This is not an offer of credit, not a quote from any lender, and not based on your credit history; your actual rate, term, and payment will differ.
