Hyundai Trim Levels Explained in Morristown, TN

Hyundai’s 2024 Trim Levels Explained at Rusty Wallace Hyundai

Every Hyundai model, from the fuel-efficient Elantra to the robust and spacious Palisade, has a set of distinct trim levels at different price points. Each trim is engineered and designed to suit the needs and financial situation of their diverse customer base. Determining which trim level is right for you depends on several factors, including your must-have features and your budget.

Hyundai uses a variety of trim levels across its lineup, but for 2024 the primary trim levels include SE, SEL, SEL Plus, Limited, Ultimate, and Calligraphy. You’ll find these trims on several 2024 models. Let’s explore each one.

Hyundai SE Trim

The SE Trim is the base trim for most Hyundai models in 2024, and it’s designed to provide an affordable and efficient option for budget shoppers. But don’t let its accessible sticker price fool you. The Hyundai SE trim models still provide the comfort and innovation Hyundai drivers have come to expect. They typically feature a well-rounded list of standard features, including standard power windows and locks, automatic air conditioning, a touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and satellite radio. In addition to tech and comfort features, all 2024 Hyundai models come equipped with Hyundai SmartSense, a full suite of safety and driver assistance features.

Hyundai SEL Trim Models

If you’re after a few more features bumping up to the SEL trim will generally get you add-ons such as alloy wheels, a sunroof, heated front seats, and a larger, more advanced infotainment system.

Hyundai N-Line Trim Models

The Hyundai N-Line offers a more performance-focused version of several Hyundai models, including the Hyundai Kona and the Elantra. These models generally feature more powerful engines with a little more oomph than the base models – more horsepower and more torque. Larger brakes, stiffer springs, retuned suspension systems, and sportier exhaust systems usually mean N-Line models offer a more athletic driving experience.

Hyundai XRT Trim Models

Available on Hyundai trucks and SUVs like the 2024 Hyundai Tucson, the XRT trim is Hyundai’s adventure-ready trim level. It features a more rugged exterior design which commonly consists of a blacked-out grille with equally dark wheels and mirrors. XRT badging can be found throughout. Off-roaders will enjoy the elevated ground clearance of the XRT trim, along with all-wheel drive and practical rubberized floor mats that are easy to clean. Positioned alongside the mid-tier models, the XRT usually includes the same technology and safety features as SEL models with a few added amenities.

Hyundai Limited Trim Models

For several Hyundai models, the Limited trim is the top-tier model, offering the most features, amenities, and the best performance. In most cases, it includes all of the features of the lower trims plus an added level of luxury. These models often sport leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated seats, and a premium sound system.

Hyundai Calligraphy Trim Models

Upping the ante even further is the Calligraphy trim level which is available on the 2024 Palisade and the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The Calligraphy trim is the most luxurious and feature-packed Hyundai trim level. Drivers who fancy the finery of quilted Nappa leather seating, ambient lighting, high-end sound systems, and a host of technology and safety and driver assistance features can’t go wrong with the Calligraphy trim.
