[Elantra GT] Write up on the 2007 Elantra

[Paul H.]

Actually, not necessarily.  

The XD Elantra sedan is 177.6 inches long; the hatch is 176.9.... just about
the same.  The Spectra sedan is 176.4 inches while the hatch is only
170.9... almost 6 inches shorter!  Sure a fastback hatch loses a little room
at the top, but a wagon that's six inches shorter is losing a lot, too.  

The Elantra hatch cargo area volume is 20.1 cu ft while the Spec5 is only
18.3 cu ft!

While impressive, if the back were more boxy you'd be able to fit even more
into it.  :-)
