What Is the Standard Ground Clearance of the Elantra and Is It Suitable for Pakistani Roads?

Owners sometimes complain about scraping on speed breakers o r uneven roads. What is the factory ground clearance of the Elantra, and is it sufficient for typical urban and rural roads in Pakistan, o r is suspension modification advisable?

The Hyundai Elantra has a ground clearance of approximately 170 mm, which is decent for urban driving but can be problematic on uneven roads, rural areas, o r high speed breakers found in many parts of Pakistan. Owners often complain about scraping underbody panels o r the exhaust system on poorly constructed speed bumps. If this is a frequent issue, installing slightly larger tires, suspension spacers, o r aftermarket skid plates may help, but should be done carefully to avoid affecting handling o r fuel economy.
