Elantra timing belt

How often should the timing belt of an '01 Elantra be changed? Also, does it matter if the majority of miles are highway or city?

Thanks,

Ed

Every 60k miles.

What if the timing belt goes on this car?
Is the engine done?

The engine is not destroyed in all cases, but you can assume if you break your timing belt, then that's really bad. It's probably the leading cause of Hyundai death.
