Split Elantra dash

Hyundai's are generally standing up well to the Australian conditions, and are getting better with each new generation that comes to the market. The clutch went at over 100,000 km, so you have to think that's in the range of being acceptable. The split dash is a little different and I would be trying to get Hyundai to at least contribute to the cost of repairs.

Hyundai Elantra early clutch replacement

You're right, what the dealer told you is ridiculous. Your description of a car that struggles to reverse up a slight incline suggests a mismatch of engine and gearing, the engine it seems doesn't have enough torque to handle the gearing of the Elantra, and the clutch then becomes the weakest link and the only thing it can do in the circumstances is slip. A slipping clutch is one that wears out quickly.
