2025 HYUNDAI ELANTRA HYBRID Blue, SEL Sport

The vehicle is a 2025 Hyundai Elantra Hybrid sedan with a 1.6-liter GDI Kappa engine and gasoline-electric hybrid system. The VIN decode identifies the vehicle as a Blue/SEL Sport trim manufactured by Hyundai Motor Co. in South Korea. The auction record lists a salvage certificate of title and identifies the primary damage as “UNDERCARRIAGE.” This classification is not confirmed by the available evidence. Stage 1 reports that the undercarriage claim cannot be confirmed from the exterior photos and requires a physical inspection; the visible photos instead show localized damage to the lower front bumper. Visible damage includes a missing section of the white lower bumper fascia at the driver-side front corner. The opening is irregular, with black inner material visible, and is assessed as moderate collision damage. Gray discoloration and surface scuffing are present on the driver-side front fender and front door near the side mirror. Light gray scuffs and thin linear marks are also visible across the passenger-side front and rear door panels. No additional damage findings are provided. The VIN decode lists standard equipment including ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, rear automatic emergency braking, and a direct tire-pressure monitoring system. The undercarriage, hybrid system, and other mechanical components should be physically inspected before purchase. One NHTSA recall is listed for this vehicle series: campaign 26V308000 concerns the hybrid power control unit, which may overheat and increase the risk of fire. Hyundai’s stated remedy is a free software update to the HPCU. Recall completion should be verified with Hyundai or NHTSA using the vehicle identification number.
