Performance Blue 6-spd on the ground for 1500 miles. Everything I hoped for and more. 53 year old long time sport-compact Gti, WRX,ST, RS, owner......nobody is building anything like this anymore. Just "nice" enough to impress a few passengers, or at least need no apologies....just "hardcore" enough to put a huge smile on your face the rest of the time. Diff, steering feel, brake feel, throttle response, and yes, shameless "I'm that guy" exhaust bangs in "N" mode---- just everything has the right enthusiast's touch....but then you relax the suspension and cruise in Normal/Eco and it does a reasonable approximation of an every day family car.......massively happy with purchase!
zxmuprh, you are cool 53 year old. I can tell you that. I just deposted $500 and waiting for it to arrive at end of this month at my local dealership. I just can't wait bro
@@jfernsten and that’s why I’ve been looking into buying one. I have a Kia K5 GT-Line AWD and that car is fairly fun to drive and can get 38-43mpg in eco mode, but it lacks power and speed. Sometimes I really want to get around some one and it feels like a dog to do so in the K5. There are a couple Elantra AB’s near me so I figured I’d swing by and see what all the buzz is about and if I’m going to be joining the family of owners.
@@official_commanderhale965 Being able to get 38 MPG daily, but push one button on the steering wheel to scream past Grandma going 10 under the speed limit never gets old. Side note: I have 2 kids, so 4 doors with spacious back seat room, and enough trunk space for weekly shopping for family of 4 is why I chose the Elantra N over the Kona N.
@@jfernsten I’m trying to get this car soon, I’ve seen some other videos people saying they are using eco mode for a couple of miles and stuff. What does that do exactly, I don’t know anything about these type of stuff
@@btchidz ECO mode causes the transmission to shift to the highest feasible gear for the speed you're traveling. As a result, the RPM's often sit around 2000 or less, consuming less fuel. With this car, pushing the right silver N button puts the whole vehicle into head-snapping, corner carving mode. When done with fun stuff, pushing the left silver N button puts it back into the mode you were in before.
I got mine today, but because I have a broken arm my mom got to drive it 3.5 hours back home. She’s always had BMWs and currently has an x3 m40i. She was floored by this car and how much I paid for it. As a car enthusiast herself she absolutely loved it.
@@OlJackBurton no I’ve driven stick for years but DC traffic got to me. Don’t regret the DCT for one second tho, it’s pairs with the this chassis incredibly well
Got my black DCT 2 weeks ago. Added red silicone plate frames, red valve stem covers, would love red H badges to tie it all together. Still driving in ECO mode to 1000 miles for break in. Even so, went from 35 mph to 60 on a backroad today (legal, posted limits) in about 2 1/2 seconds. Averaging 38 mpg. I'm nearly 50, and never had a vehicle do so well as a daily driver...that can tear up the road with the push of a button. 300 more miles before I really unleash this thing.
Who would have thought that we would be raving and highly considering this car over all the competitors? I am old enough to remember when the Hyundai Pony was the biggest POS and here we are calling this one of the best car's of the year. What a story. More companies should learn from Hyundai.
I agree. Hyundai has really stepped up their game. Like all young car companies, they had their turds. But WOW, this car is easily the best value out there today! Mine arrives in two days. I can't wait. Black on black. manual tranny. This old guy is excited!
There's protective stickers on the light up N badges on the seats that the owner forgot to peel off. It's a translucent white sticker so it really dulls the emblem and you can't see the black in the emblem because of it. I know this because I literally noticed today that mine had that on it. I asked my dealer not to remove any plastics when it came off the truck, lol.
I’ve been wanting a new car for some time now. I’ve watched and read different reviews and this one has been my favorite so far. The Elantra N wasn’t even on my radar until now. I think that this may be the car I want with all the features I’m looking for
Hyundai are one of my favorite car makes. They do everything right but go under the radar in my opinion. Design are great, drives smoothly. What more can you ask for?
DCT will always be faster and manual will always offer more engagement. Both unarguable truths. Glad that we buyers have two great options. I’ll likely be going for the manual because I prioritize engagement over raw speed.
Who cares which one is faster? Real drivers will always pick the manual. Good luck keeping up with them on the touge/track. You're gonna need way more help than that DCT can offer 🤣🤣
Dealers in Atlanta are adding $5k over MSRP and I refuse to pay that. In my 45 years of driving I have even never paid MSRP so I guess I will wait until the market cools off.
I like both to be honest. I've been driving manuals for years, so I would prefer the 6 speed, but my wife has had surgery on her left ankle, so we can't switch cars if we need to. She physically can't use the clutch. The DCT seems fun as well tho.
I like IT! LOVE the exhaust note ... bet it would sound better in person. But the fact that you can hear it! My car, which is the sport version of a different brand.. it's exhaust is too quiet, and when I went to play... and use the paddle shifters ... i have to get automatic cuz my wife doesn't like standard ... but paddle shifters are still fun. But I can't hear it, and I hate having to look at the gauges. Can't shift by sound ... and using the shifters, amps everything WAAAY up. Cornering is bumped up huge. I'd love this car almost just for that reason ... so I could hear when to shift. Told my wife, "Mannnn, using the paddle shifters I can corner even FASTER!" ... annnnd! I agree with your son on the red. He has some good taste (and im older then you) ... Okay, okay! I'll subscribe... this is the third or forth video I've watched this morning.
Another great review, love your channel! BTW I'm 42 and this is exactly the type of over the top styling I want in a sports car! Love BMW and love Hyundai!
I have a 2011 Elantra did many repairs since 97k miles when I buy it in 2015 now have 268k miles . I replaced da valve gasket , alternator, neutral safety switch , plugs, myself n now it needs , position crank sensors intake n exhaust . But still runs strong n this N car is way cool n runs strong n at da dealer I saw a guy who ordered this car earlier in 2022. In white . I am waiting to see what the ionque 6 looks like. Da 5 is cool too.
It's a shame that here in Korea, we have several options like ' back seat air bent' . This happend exactly same for Veloster N when Hyundai sell them to America.
vent* North America*(US&Canada) + Australia I do agree though, especially the non-choice with the sun roof. That's a huge dead weight, and if people wanted to run this at track, that's going to be an issue. However, it is also a marketing strategy to trim out the branches and just stick them with 'one choice' package, since most consumers in places like NA or AU rarely feel the need to go to a circuit to test these out as they have a vast land and road. Also... it's Namyang's way of saying 'yeah come to Korea if you are a type of customer that really wants a fucking back seat air vent for a fun piece like this because we sure have lot of those people around here', direct quote translation from the sales rep.
Awesome review and you got yourself a subscriber! You got the same combination that I ordered (Cyber Grey + 6MT). I'm happy to see so many comparisons to the Integra Type-R, my first car was a 1999 Integra with the non-VTEC 142hp 1.8L. Even that handled extremely well, without any trick LSD.
I always appreciate your reviews. Nice to see someone local as well. Would be nice to see a 2022 Rogue SV trim review with the new engine. I expect they are hard to come by though.
I like it, but I wish NA got the i30 instead. The styling is just too over the top for me, where as I feel the i30 is just perfect. Plus a hatch has more space / usability
I bought an Excel back in the day. Literally my first new car ever. Within 5 years... It was beat. And I mean beat. The interior had disintigrated, it was starting to rust in 5 or 6 spots, just a real piece of crap. It was the last Hyundai I bought, until this year when I had the opportunity to trade my Chrysler 200 for the new Elantra. I was still gun shy from 35 years ago, still had a little anxiety telling people it was a Hyundai. Well, the got me back. Double the fuel mileage. Gorgeous style. Really decent power for the milage. Nice entertainment system. Just really nice car. And I like the extra kit. LOL
Disagree! I'm in my 50s. Had two R35 gGTR's and an m2 competition. I love the red. Love the classy, aggressive look. And all for $40,000 Canadian. This leaves endless money to modify. Additionally its affordable enough to become a daily and not a garage queen. Best value on the market today, in my humble opinion. I get mine in two days.Black with the manual. Carbon hood, carbon mirrors, bronze wheels all incoming. Best Christmas ever.
Great car but that red trim has to go one look and you immediately think of GTI and that spoiler has to go a lip spoiler would be nicer not some big thing from the 90s.
Great review, love the energy & passion you portray as you point out the great features the vehicle has! 👍🏼 My wife and I are into our 60’s now and we just signed up for a new Sonata N-Line here in Australia and to be truthful my wife spotted an Elantra N and says hey! What about this one? Lol We have had many Hyundai vehicles and never had one major issue with any of them, and the customer service and after sales support has been fantastic! You earned a sub from me, keep up the great energy and passion! Respect from Down Under 🇦🇺🦘👍🏼
We have both the i30N and Elantra in Australia, for some reason they renamed the Elantra to “i30N Sedan” when the two cars don’t even share the same platform…. I much prefer the Elantra name.
BMW and Audi talent like BMW M's, Albert Bierman went to Hyundai and KIA. Now the only way BMW can get attention is by making them extremely ugly with those hideous grills.
I have the dct. I really like this car. I've seen a lot of reviews and everyone talks about the exhaust sound being so bad ass. I hate to burst your bubble but most of that bad ass "active sound design " is coming thru your back speakers. And if you do the update for your navigation it gives you a rally car sound also. I turn that crap off. I still like the sound of the actual exhaust.
I'm still a bit baffled by why they offer a sunroof on the manual for the Canada market, but not in the US. That doesn't make any sense, at all. Also, i'm 48 and bought the car 1 month ago. Has nothing to do with age, had everything to do with an affordable, fun car.
I’m 47 and I don’t give a shit about how it looks. I’m not a huge fan of the looks but it seems like others are. I just LOVE the way this 6sp manual feels to drive. I drive like I’m always in a rush and this car helps me with that.
@@lovejoyb20 it is wet DCT if it’s an Elantra and likely Avante; the i30 Sedan N just says 8 speed DCT which I’m pretty sure is the wet version. The dry DCT is < 8 gears and in other cars.
Hmm not sure what you are talking about because I'm 50 years old and just bought an automatic of the car in your video. Lol 😀 Only way to get one right now is to buy one that's still in Transit so will not get it until June 9th.
I kind of hate the exterior design. I love that Hyundai/Kia are trying different things out and their designs are anything but boring, but sometimes it just doesn't work. I love how the Veloster N looks, but the Elantra N looks weird. Kind of flat, stretched in weird ways, too busy in the front. Overall, it looks like too many different design elements weaved into 1 car and something just doesn't look cohesive.
Hyundai’s ‘N’ represents two important elements. First, the Namyang district in South Korea, the birthplace of the N brand and location of Hyundai’s Global R&D Center. Second, the Nürburgring racetrack in Germany, which is home to Hyundai’s Technical Center which is used to test the N vehicles. Finally, the ‘N’ logo itself is also a representation of a classic chicane or tight serpentine turn in the road.
Hyundai Elantra N or Volkswagen GLI??
Elantra N
Elantra N until I turn 40 years old, then the GLI after XD
EN. I've heard that the Kona N and the DTC variants are faster than the manual EN.

I just purchased my first car which is a 2017 Hyundai Elantra and already the 2022 version is my dream car!
Lol a Hyundai as a dream car 🤣. Dreams ars free . Aim higher.
It's great companies like Hyundai still make the manuals.
I'm turning 50 in november and i brought one.....
In Australia we do get the Elantra N except it’s called the i30 Sedan N.
We have the Elantra N in Australia, it is badged as an “i30 Sedan N”

I got a liquid metal . Not available in the states.

Almost the same as the Veloster N, but the engine is revised, the turbo is bigger, and the auto comes with a wet dual clutch
All of the automatic N models are wet dual clutch. In North America anyway. Not sure about the rest of the world.
@@lovejoyb20 it is wet DCT if it’s an Elantra and likely Avante; the i30 Sedan N just says 8 speed DCT which I’m pretty sure is the wet version. The dry DCT is < 8 gears and in other cars.
Dream car😍
Hmm not sure what you are talking about because I'm 50 years old and just bought an automatic of the car in your video. Lol 😀
Only way to get one right now is to buy one that's still in Transit so will not get it until June 9th.
It's my dream car ‼️‼️❤️
Did they add track warranty in the USA? I thought I read they confirmed it
and with only a stage 1 software tune, you have funny 340 PS and 480 NM of torque under the hood to ruin the front tyres easy.
Very beautiful and powerful car 😍
Which did you have more fun in, Elantra N or CT4-V (not blackwing) with the rear drive?
That’s an excellent question that I would also like to hear an opinion about.
I kind of hate the exterior design. I love that Hyundai/Kia are trying different things out and their designs are anything but boring, but sometimes it just doesn't work. I love how the Veloster N looks, but the Elantra N looks weird. Kind of flat, stretched in weird ways, too busy in the front. Overall, it looks like too many different design elements weaved into 1 car and something just doesn't look cohesive.
I like it alot. Its got the mean look that most cars lack these days.
Front looks messed up drawing
How will this handle a Canadian winter with snow tires?
The Back is Top Notch indeed. At the level of BMW I would say.
performance blue is the only colour to get in one of these
The black out all black even if the logos with the red line on the down side
love this car danggg
I’m 42. It’s my front runner.
The Elantra N is not a bad car. But it has been underrated for quite some time which is sad
Actually Elantra N is making 300+ hrps
It's definitely not underrated. Its been getting attention and praise. lol
What does the “N” stands for?
Hyundai’s ‘N’ represents two important elements. First, the Namyang district in South Korea, the birthplace of the N brand and location of Hyundai’s Global R&D Center. Second, the Nürburgring racetrack in Germany, which is home to Hyundai’s Technical Center which is used to test the N vehicles. Finally, the ‘N’ logo itself is also a representation of a classic chicane or tight serpentine turn in the road.
