The front-drive Hyundai Elantra N looks boy-racerish, and it surely has the goods to back up its aggressive appearance. This is a highly engineered performance vehicle posing as a compact four-door sedan. It blends scintillating performance with family practicality and acceptable comfort.
The Elantra N’s star power comes from a 2.0L turbocharged direct-injected four-cylinder that producing 276 hp and 289 lb-ft of torque. In Sport mode, the exhaust broadcasts a spectacular volley of pops and bangs when lifting off the throttle. The N is available with either six-speed manual or optional eight-speed dual-clutch auto. Both gearboxes are superb. With the DSG, the steering wheel gets paddle shifters and a NGS button that boosts horsepower to 286 for up to 20 seconds. A brilliantly tuned chassis, electronic limited-slip “N Corner Carving differential,” and 19-inch Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires give this sedan spectacular moves.
The Elantra N’s trunk is large and deep, although the rear structural brace does away with the standard sedan’s folding rear seats. The front sports seats are aggressively bolstered yet surprisingly comfortable and supportive. The N is a well-equipped sedan and, as with all Hyundai products, the infotainment interface is easy to use and features clear graphics.
The 2023 Elantra N with six-speed manual starts at $37,499, the eight-speed DCT model starts at $39,099.
