It will be a while before I replace this one.
2016 with less than 53,000 miles that I have owned from day one.
It will be most likely replaced with a new Accent or Elantra based on what is in effect at that time.

This one has shiftronic, but I expect the next will have CVT, as I don't think they make the shiftronic version any more.

The only issues that I have had are brakes and exhaust wearing out over the years that I own them. I think that may be due to the salt on the roads. Brakes we tend to do in the yard (our own shop if too cold) and exhaust depends on what part needs replacement.

California's effect is more on the manufacturers. California residents/business/government buy a lot of vehicles. The State also has about 1.75M b/d of refining capacity.
