2025 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SE

The vehicle is a 2025 Hyundai Elantra SE sedan, VIN KMHLL4DGXSU991816. Factory VIN data identifies a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with multipoint fuel injection, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Co. in Ulsan, South Korea. The auction record lists the vehicle as “CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE,” with “FRONT END” recorded as the primary damage classification. These are auction designations and should be independently verified. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the stated front-end damage claim, based on extensive damage to the hood, bumper, grille, headlamp areas, and adjacent front body panels. Stage 1 also notes that salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The front end has severe collision damage. The hood is deeply crushed, with multiple pronounced creases and deformation across the front and center sections. Its leading edge is raised and uneven, and the hood sits substantially above the surrounding panels. Large, uneven gaps are visible at the hood-to-fender and hood-to-bumper interfaces. The front bumper cover and upper fascia are severely displaced and broken, with separated sections, open gaps, and components exposed behind the fascia. The center grille is fractured and displaced, with irregular openings and loose-looking sections. Both front headlamp areas show broken or displaced lamp and mounting components, with gaps and internal parts visible around the assemblies. The adjacent visible front fender edge has sharp creases and a moderately uneven contour near the headlamp and wheel opening. The supplied findings document extensive exterior front-end damage. A physical inspection is required to determine the condition of structural components, cooling and lighting systems, sensors, wiring, steering and suspension components, and the vehicle’s mechanical and safety systems.
