[Update: Live auto show images added.] Hyundai has unveiled its 2009 Elantra Touring at the Montreal International Auto Show. We first got a glimpse at what the Touring would look like in the form of the Elantra Touring “Beach Cruiser” Concept shown at the SEMA show in Las Vegas.

The production model stays true to the styling of the concept — if you focus on what is underneath the two-tone paint — and is reminiscent of the Mazda3 hatchback. In Europe, the Elantra Touring is sold under the i30 CW nameplate.

The interior appears to be well appoint and of the quality we have come to expect in a Hyundai. The Elantra Touring also features plenty of connectivity for iPods and other electronic devices.

Power for the wagon is sourced from Hyundai’s 2.0L four-cylinder, making 141 horsepower. That power is shift through either a five-speed manual transmission of a four-speed automatic.

Hyundai failed to releasing pricing of availability for the Elantra Touring, but it should hit dealer showrooms later this year.
