The Hyundai Elantra average ($155) runs 35% above its median ($115), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 10 model years for the Hyundai Elantra (2015–2025) but only 1 for the Kia Seltos (2021–2021), so the Hyundai Elantra data reflects a broader range of generations.

The Hyundai Elantra center console is interchangeable across 13 model years versus just 5 for the Kia Seltos — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Hyundai Elantra is 33% cheaper ($110 vs $165) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used center console

  • Check shifter configuration compatibility, accounting for floor-mounted automatic shifters, manual transmission boots, or rotary dial selectors.
  • Match interior color codes, stitching, and trim finishes (woodgrain, brushed aluminum, piano black) with your vehicle's dash and door panels.
  • Verify that all electrical features—such as rear climate controls, USB charging ports, ambient lighting, and seat heater switches—have intact wiring harnesses.
  • Inspect hinge mounts, latching mechanisms, and cupholder assemblies for broken plastic tabs that prevent smooth opening or secure mounting.
