2025 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SEL Convenience

The vehicle is a 2025 Hyundai Elantra sedan, VIN KMHLS4DG8SU918639. The VIN decode identifies the SEL Convenience trim, a 2.0-liter gasoline engine, and manufacture in Ulsan, South Korea. Factory-listed equipment includes LED low-beam headlamps and various driver-assistance and safety systems. The auction record lists the condition as “CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE” and the primary damage as “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the FRONT END classification, based on the extensive missing and damaged bumper, fascia, and lighting components. Stage 1 also notes that salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The front end has extensive collision damage. The hood has visible creasing, an irregular raised front edge, and uneven hood-to-fender gaps at both front corners. The leading edges of the front fenders are deformed around the headlamp and bumper openings. The front bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, and associated fascia pieces are missing, leaving the radiator and other internal front-end components exposed. Both headlamp assemblies are absent, with open mounting areas and visible wiring or components at the front corners. Detached black bumper and fascia pieces are visible separately; several have broken edges, separated sections, and damaged mounting points. The findings document significant front-end component loss and panel deformation. The condition of concealed structural, mechanical, cooling, electrical, and safety-system components cannot be determined from these findings and should be verified through a comprehensive physical inspection before purchase.
