How hard do you want to toss your car around in the corners? The Hyundai Elantra N is an extremely tossable, fun, and athletic car for you to let out your wild side.
If aggressive driving is what you’re after, this sporty version of the Elantra could be everything you desire. This car cuts through the corners, rockets on the straights, and dives out of turns in such a way that it seems to always be on full tilt. Put this car through its paces and see what it does for you.
This car will bother the neighbors
Are you that neighbor with the loud, obnoxious car? If you drive this Hyundai, you will be. The Elantra N makes no apologies for being rowdy, aggressive, and playful. Reve up the engine and listen to the exhaust that makes your car one of the loudest on the street. You’ll love rowing the gears of the standard six-speed manual transmission and riding in the bolstered sport seats, which are much more comfortable than some would expect. This car might bother the neighbors, but don’t let that bother you; it’s time for you to do you with this sporty and fun Elantra.
Does the Elantra N have a practical side?
The Hyundai Elantra N doesn’t take away everything that makes it an Elantra. That would go against everything this car stands for. It might be sporty and fun, but it’s also a roomy, comfortable, and practical four-door sedan that makes daily driving easy. This means you can take the Elantra N to work every day and know that you’ve got the right car for some open-road driving when the workday is done. Will you take this aggressive machine to the local track to show what it can do?
The N name is a dying breed
It seems like only yesterday that the N name was coming into its own for Hyundai. The original plan was for an N model for every vehicle in the lineup, but things changed. The transition toward electric vehicles caused a bit of an uproar for this brand. Now that Hyundai has discontinued the Veloster N, the Elantra N and Kona N are the only N-brand vehicles left. While short-lived, we can certainly admire and enjoy what this sub-brand brought to the market for a few years.
What does this Hyundai offer?
You won’t have to choose from various options, packages, or features to enjoy what the Hyundai Elantra N delivers. This impressive car comes basically fully loaded for you. You’ll find a large 10.3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 10.3-inch infotainment screen, and the connectivity of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to give you what you’re after. The in-dash navigation system will help you find the local track, and the Wi-Fi hotspot can make sharing your race videos much easier with your friends on social media. This could be the most fun and energetic little car you’ve ever driven.
What powers this Elantra?
Every Elantra N is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that pumps out 275 horsepower and 289 lb-ft of torque. This power is sent to the front wheels through either the standard 6-speed manual or 8-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. A little secret overboost feature called N Grin Shift pushes the Elantra N to 286 horsepower for some quick bursts when you need it.
This car reaches 60 mph in only 5.1 seconds and can finish the quarter mile in 13.8 seconds at 105 mph. These are not your typical performance numbers for a compact sedan. It’s easy to see how this car is tuned up for performance.
Is the Elantra N efficient enough for daily driving?
If you want to drive the Hyundai Elantra N every day, you can. This car achieves 22 city/31 hwy mpg when you include the manual transmission and 20 city/30 hwy mpg for those models with the automatic transmission. This means you’ve got the efficiency required to drive this car during your daily commute.
If you’re looking for a sporty, small, active sedan that provides you with plenty of fun and driving pleasure on the roads and tracks in your area, it’s hard to beat the Hyundai Elantra N. This small sedan brings the fun, offers ample power, and delivers the performance features you want to take with you when the itch to drive fast and hard needs scratching.
