Who else is excited for the upcoming Elantra N?! We liked this prototype a LOT! But we actually found the DCT more interesting to drive. Which transmission would you get? 6-speed MT or 8-speed DCT?
Yes, I am excited! I am a little bummed though... I have a 2018 Elantra Sport w/DCT and premium package that is leased. The lease is up in April of next year. Originally I was planning to move to the the full Elantra N that was going to be a 2021 release, but now I'm seeing it has been pushed to 2022. That leaves me in a little quandary unless they will extend my lease a bit until I can get an Elantra N when they come out. My only other options I was thinking about is moving to the midsize Sonata N Line, but I like the way the Kia K5 GT looks better... 🤔
Hyundai/Kia has really been bringing the heat in these past few years. You gotta respect the drive and passion they’re showing for car enthusiasts around the world.
Doesn't matter they won't sell any anyway , in socal you can't even find a new Veloster N on a lot and they have to discount the Forte GT to even move them off the lot
@Randy Jackson no they are not rock bottom cars! Your just butt hurt because recently they have their new performance division “N- Line” to go toe to toe with other manufacturers.
This is the kind of genuine, unscripted car journalism I love to see! I'm so impressed at what Hyundai is able to achieve and offering something different from the competition.
@@klasseact6663 The DCT is faster than the manual I don't blame you lol. I hope to get the 2.0T Bk2 genesis coupe this summer. But when I finish college hell yeah I'm getting the elantra N for sure since both the genesis and elantra N share the same G4KF motor but the N model engine can handle more boost!

@@jerbsherb4391 Sound wise? Yes. Many cars has beaten the Type R when it comes to the exhaust note along with the looks. Which is what they were talking about. They never said anything about performance. Just looks & sound.
The Honda type R looks like a kids car. A kid just out of diapers. One day I might need diapers, but I don't need them now. At my age ,I wouldn't want to be seen driving a Honda Type R, I wouldn't mind being seen in any of Hyundai N vehicles. Especially the Hyundai Kona N!. Don't get me wrong, they are all fun youthful cars, just the Honda type r is too polarizing for my taste . It looks great when young kids are driving them, not someone in my age group.
I am so glad to see what Korean car manufacturers have come out with. Between the new sporty cars Hyundai is making and the more luxury cars with Genesis and the Kia Stinger it looks as though Kia/Hyundai/Genesis are moving way up in the automotive world.
Manual tranny is retro inferior. But some folks also like hammers instead of nail guns. Did you see that stick shift wheel hop, then the automatic just launches like a rocket. Lmao. No comparison
Honda, VW, Subaru, Mazda have several things to learn from Hyundai. 15 years ago no one took Hyundai seriously including myself. But fast forward 15 years now no one takes Honda or Subaru seriously anymore because they lost their original statuses. On the other hand, Hyundai took a totally different direction. Well Hyundai! 👍
you are kidding me right? HAN would never let any body drive a hyundai. Honda actually is elevated in status. Their Type R is what makes japanese cars so awesome....a car that is a compact sport that does battle with cars that are twice its price or more on a circuit. The Evo/STI/GTR/RX7 had those status. Hyundai still has nothing in that status at this time.
@@LoveLikeaHurricane you must be joking. The movie is 15 years old. Times have changed if you haven't noticed. Where is Mitsubishi now? What happened to Subaru? Hyundai is the third largest automaker in the world. Honda has some catching up to do. Value proposition of VW vs Hyundai Korean automaker wins in that contest 10 times out of 10. Looks like you stuck in 2006 too with Tokyo Drift movie. 😂😂😂
@@LoveLikeaHurricane I can't agree with your opinion. Japanese cars these days do not have innovative attempts. Elantra N is the first car since the Golf R32 with a good stock exhaust sound that is not aftermarket. Japanese cars these days have no details. Anyone can make a car that is fast only by tuning. However, not every carmaker can make a car that meets customer needs.
@@alengreen589 He gave just know-how, not teaching, if the excellent engine is being made by one person just teaching. every single automotive companies all over the world has the best engine. but in reality not..
Ok hear me out.... with a stage 2 or stage 3 Korean tune, some sticky summer tires, and a DCT, I swear this Elantra just (might) keep up with an M3.... if not pass it.
Oh man I have been sooo damn excited for this car since it's announcement. This is going to be a fantastic option for people who wanted something a little more practical than the Veloster with the same N flare that makes it so damn fun. I really might consider this for my next car.
I have been dreaming of this kind of car since I bought the Sport model in 2018, and now I am glad I saved my money and didn't do any mods. Although I don't like the looks as much as the 2018 models, it is impossible not to appreciate the performance and price offered by this car.
Now I know why I was drawing Honda and Hyundai logos in all of my high school textbooks. I must have known Hyundai was going to get here. They are bringing it. Still a Honda guy but also a Hyundai guy, all the more now.
I was about a month away from buying the veloster n but watching this video literally changed my mind and now I want this. It’s a lot more practical for the same performance!!
I sold luxury cars for 15 years. Mostly Infiniti, Lexus but the he last 5 years of my 20 year car sales career I sold Hyundai/Genesis models! WOW! They have really come a long way and with the addition of Albert Bierman, wow just wow!!! I really like that new 2.5 they got coming out in the Sonata. Dual injection is the answer to GDI technology. I bought a Elantra Limited for me and my wife just before retiring and now I thinking we need to think about what’s next? Sonata N line, maybe.
Sounds sick! N highly impressed. I had a 2017 Hyundai Elantra Sport that I trading in. Only drawbacks on that car where that it had no diff n lacked power. This Elantra covers both of those issues. Thanks a lot Redline now I wanna get one !!!!
I just test drove the 6 speed Elantra N-Line. It was fun...the 1.6 turbo is a peppy little mill...but it handles like a normal (aka pedestrian) compact sedan. I’m going to wait for the N. And when comparing to other competitors, don’t forget, the Hyundai will have that unbeatable 10 year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty. Thanks Sofyan, for another fun review.
This looks amazing but the hatch in my Veloster N has proved extremely useful - still love the new Elantra N as I think it will attract a wider range of buyers
@@YIK-od7rq you don’t need natural resources alone to be a powerful nation. Human capital is what they definitely have which is much more important than natural resources
Damn that exhaust is loud, it been nice in the stinger! KDM bringing the fun back for car enthusiast at a affordable price. Reminds me good old days 90’s area JDM!
Thats a SUPER cool car. Their DCT is fantastic. The exhaust sounds killer. I could do without the pop tune but it will surely put smiles on faces. Great video. Thanks!
Let's all be happy it's a manual and a dual clutch. Most companies don't offer manuals, shit most are barely offering car's. And for Hyundai to make a great performance car with dual mode exhaust,manual,dual clutch,all modern tech and Let's not forget the best warranty on the market.
Well well well Hyundai's bringin' the serious heat. Amazing car, I'm definitely going to check this car out when it finally hit the market. Very nice sound!
So ticked that Hyundai got rid of Elantra GT hatchback. Was a beautiful car and I have a 2018 gt sport hatchback. I think they should of brought the i30N to North America. But the small SUVs killed the hatchbacks. Not a fan of sedans
@@ChuckIttOut I bloody hope so. The gold R is too expensive and I want more variety than just the golf gti and I don’t like the look of the civic. I even miss the wrx hatch Subaru used to have.
I bought a Civic Sport Hatch since the Veloster N was kind of small for me. I regret not waiting longer because this thing looks really cool and is much larger
You can trade it. Traded my Sport Hatch Touring for Tubo Ultimate & everyday driving excitement. Couldn’t stand the CVT. Comments that they won’t last, if it fails, I’ll get something else that’s fun to drive. Life’s short.
Man Hyundai continues to up their game...you know a company is doing something right when it is a legit struggle to decide which product you want to purchase Thats not even including what Kia and Genesis are doing
Yeah. If they stick those fuzzy cloth seats in there again it’s going to kill the interior. They probably will since this is supposed to be GTI competition.
@@computerguy5437 the biggest reason is cost. They aim to keep it below 30K. Now I will say it should look significantly better than the original Veloster N because I have seen the photos of the updated Veloster N with some significantly better seats but I just think they don't believe they can compete with the likes of the Type R so they purposely undercut with price savings and thus interior quality suffers.
This is a nice sporty sedan however adding a sunroof in my opinion isn't necessary because it adds weight being that this sedan is aiming for performance (it also sounds badass)
Lol calm down speed racer a sunroof in a FWD sedan isn't going to many any noticeable difference, you can strip this thing and it still wouldn't touch a Type R on a track. It's not a Lotus lmao
@@thynysan Hyundai/kia keep giving us(US market) toned down versions of their cars. Some examples include the kia K5( no digital cluster among other things) the elantra n line( again no digital cluster, among other things). Where as in korea and other markets they get every feature. The elantra n that he is test driving in this video (korean spec) has all the tech; digital gauge, heated and cooled seats, memory seats, air vents in the rear.
Finally an option with decent power and transmissions.? I’m definitely going to consider buying one when they come out. The veloster N performance was high on my list of cars to buy but this just passed it
Everyone keeps saying Hyundai is killing it they are going to take enthusiasts away from brands , blah blah blah and in reality they struggle to sell Veloster Ns and my friend got a fully loaded Forte GT (to Uber with) for like 4 grand off because they can't sell them
@@VaunShiz most cars get big discounts. People expect a lot off. And basically you (the buyer) is just paying for the car’s depreciation upfront. And obviously they sold one to him. Kia is selling plenty of Tellurides at sticker. Everyone wins. Honda couldn’t sell Civic coupes so they’ve discontinued them altogether as they are also discontinuing the manual transmissions. These types of things are practiced with all car makers.
@@cloudyview Stinger is nice and power is great but its too big, too expensive, and gets HOT really fast. Hyundai's N division build their N cars for real track abuse and the Veloster N shows it. I'll be more than happy to take delivery of my Elantra N when they come in.
Love it! This will be my next car. I have a first gen vt lightly nodded and I love that thing! Was having a hard time deciding between VN or Mazda 3 turbo. But after seeing this, I know what I want. Thanks for the post!
I'm a honda guy. But I have to say this N versions of the veloster and Elantra seem like a good addition to the segment. And it's nice to hear it will be cheaper than a type-R.
I'm looking at GTIs, SIs, and WRXs right now... I might wait for this. But I just don't understand-why no Elantra GT N??? The hatch is such a game-changer! Regardless, this is very, very cool.
I heard from one of the Korean car review media that this will be the last N version car with an internal combustion engine. Hyundai’s plan for the next few years is to release several mainstream electric cars as volume sellers and create electric N models.
Hyundai, Genesis and Kia alone are the most impressive brand. Not only are they pumping out new cars, models and trims but they are keeping things realistic with price and quality. Their company is constantly improving to bring a sense of satisfaction to there clients that no other brand can really touch. And remember they've only just started.😉
Question, did your camera guy who has the Type R drive the car and his opinion? I've heard different opinions on whether the Kona N will have a manual. Latest I've seen is no and that would be disappointing. Definitely interested in the Elantra & Kona N
They also added a sound generator to the 2020 model Type-Rs. I driven one and it's done better than the Veloster N's sound generator. Just funny they say sound of waste when they added a sound generator.
I want this car soo bad now. And it looks much better than the ugly 2020 version. Great review redline reviews. Love your channel because its no BS just straight facts on the cars for people that want great performance and value in a vehicle.
No matter what you really gotta appreciate and accept what Hyundai is doing with their line up. I respect it, fun, sporty, performance. It’s all great.

Yeah. If they stick those fuzzy cloth seats in there again it’s going to kill the interior. They probably will since this is supposed to be GTI competition.
Yeah I'm sure they will strip out the leather seats, the digital dash and larger infotainment, power seat, the vented seats and the rear seat vents.
@@computerguy5437 the biggest reason is cost. They aim to keep it below 30K. Now I will say it should look significantly better than the original Veloster N because I have seen the photos of the updated Veloster N with some significantly better seats but I just think they don't believe they can compete with the likes of the Type R so they purposely undercut with price savings and thus interior quality suffers.
🥺😩😭
This is a nice sporty sedan however adding a sunroof in my opinion isn't necessary because it adds weight being that this sedan is aiming for performance (it also sounds badass)
Lol calm down speed racer a sunroof in a FWD sedan isn't going to many any noticeable difference, you can strip this thing and it still wouldn't touch a Type R on a track. It's not a Lotus lmao
@@VaunShiz It does make a difference in lighter cars. If you added a strut bar onto a civic the dynamics would be noticeable.
@@VaunShiz calm down honda fan boy. I rather have not fart can car that doesn't cost $60,000 😂😂
I pray to god they give us the full korean spec.
Why?
@@thynysan
Hyundai/kia keep giving us(US market) toned down versions of their cars. Some examples include the kia K5( no digital cluster among other things) the elantra n line( again no digital cluster, among other things). Where as in korea and other markets they get every feature.
The elantra n that he is test driving in this video (korean spec) has all the tech; digital gauge, heated and cooled seats, memory seats, air vents in the rear.
To which God are you praying for such an inconsequential matter in the overall scheme of things?
@@MrUser999999 our K5 does have a digital dash and so does our Elantra
Will probably be spec like the Veloster N
Finally an option with decent power and transmissions.? I’m definitely going to consider buying one when they come out. The veloster N performance was high on my list of cars to buy but this just passed it
The reason why the N division is killing it is because they have a bunch of former BMW executives and engineers running that in-house speed shop.
And Audi engineers too. But yes. That’s the story we’ve all been told for the last few years. No breaking news there
Everyone keeps saying Hyundai is killing it they are going to take enthusiasts away from brands , blah blah blah and in reality they struggle to sell Veloster Ns and my friend got a fully loaded Forte GT (to Uber with) for like 4 grand off because they can't sell them
@@VaunShiz, impractical cars do not sell. Overseas they have the i30 N and it sells very well. The Veloster is a waste!
@@VaunShiz most cars get big discounts. People expect a lot off. And basically you (the buyer) is just paying for the car’s depreciation upfront. And obviously they sold one to him. Kia is selling plenty of Tellurides at sticker. Everyone wins. Honda couldn’t sell Civic coupes so they’ve discontinued them altogether as they are also discontinuing the manual transmissions. These types of things are practiced with all car makers.
also helps that they can just carryover engines and stuff. They are only really in the compact sports segment right now.
Finally a car I will be excited to replace my Accord Sport 2.0T 6mt.
Stinger 😁
@@cloudyview Stinger is nice and power is great but its too big, too expensive, and gets HOT really fast. Hyundai's N division build their N cars for real track abuse and the Veloster N shows it. I'll be more than happy to take delivery of my Elantra N when they come in.
I need this car . With the performance package with the dct
Welcome to my faNily
I don't even car if people are hating the fact that they are shows how much of an impact hyundai is having on the industry!! Team blue all the way!
You are having soooo much fun!
Thankyou for the first look of the Elantra N redline Reviews. I cant wait for the world release of the full N model!
Canada gets the korean spec models with everything included
How do you know?
I’m holding off trading in my 2016 Veloster Turbo, waiting for this Elantra N to finally come out!
Love it! This will be my next car. I have a first gen vt lightly nodded and I love that thing! Was having a hard time deciding between VN or Mazda 3 turbo. But after seeing this, I know what I want. Thanks for the post!
the future used car market is going to be so amazing!
Thats sound of Pleasure!, cant wait to get it
I'm a honda guy. But I have to say this N versions of the veloster and Elantra seem like a good addition to the segment. And it's nice to hear it will be cheaper than a type-R.
The Manual transmission 👍👍👍
No better endorsement than the huge smile on your face.
08:01 N stock exhust sound 🔥🇰🇷
I was smiling all throughout the driving segment
I'm looking at GTIs, SIs, and WRXs right now... I might wait for this. But I just don't understand-why no Elantra GT N??? The hatch is such a game-changer! Regardless, this is very, very cool.
They have the veloster N
I heard from one of the Korean car review media that this will be the last N version car with an internal combustion engine. Hyundai’s plan for the next few years is to release several mainstream electric cars as volume sellers and create electric N models.
Holy shit lmao. The exhaust man. This car is a instant win
Hyundai, Genesis and Kia alone are the most impressive brand. Not only are they pumping out new cars, models and trims but they are keeping things realistic with price and quality. Their company is constantly improving to bring a sense of satisfaction to there clients that no other brand can really touch. And remember they've only just started.😉
Question, did your camera guy who has the Type R drive the car and his opinion? I've heard different opinions on whether the Kona N will have a manual. Latest I've seen is no and that would be disappointing. Definitely interested in the Elantra & Kona N
Great job on securing the prototype N. The first person I’ve seen with this car. Also looks like you had a lot of fun driving that car 🤣
Sound of waste? Adds fake vents for drag.
right? Lame excuse imo
Honda claims most of it is done for aerodynamics 🤷🏼♂️
This is the same company that makes the Type-R look like a Transformer😋
They also added a sound generator to the 2020 model Type-Rs. I driven one and it's done better than the Veloster N's sound generator. Just funny they say sound of waste when they added a sound generator.
@@PiroFyre that's true I completely forgot about that one as well ... Isn't it wasteful to add unnecessary weight?
This guy is very good at explaining the car and that wrap is 🔥
8:00-8:11 those pops 😭. i’ll be trading in my 18 lantra sport if we get everything that comes in this version
Me too. I have a 2018 es too and want this car
I have a 18 ES as well. Looks like this we’ll be the move in 2021 as well.
I want this car soo bad now. And it looks much better than the ugly 2020 version. Great review redline reviews. Love your channel because its no BS just straight facts on the cars for people that want great performance and value in a vehicle.
Who knew I would watch the N-Line review and then be treated with a foreshadowed Elantra N video?
No matter what you really gotta appreciate and accept what Hyundai is doing with their line up. I respect it, fun, sporty, performance. It’s all great.
