New Hyundai Elantra N for 2022

As we announced earlier this month, Hyundai has introduced the new Elantra N for 2022.

The Hyundai N division has taken a step forward compared to the previous model. The Elantra N is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine that delivers 276 hp and 289 lb-ft of torque. In addition to the manual 6-speed transmission, the new Elantra will also be offered with an automatic 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, and front-wheel drive. The available engine power allows the car to reach 62 mph in 5.3 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h).

The Elantra is equipped with a new adjustable suspension, electronically controlled limited differential lock (ELSD), 245 / 35ZR 19 Michelin Pilot 4S tires and 360 mm brake discs for better stopping, and red brake calipers. Thanks to Hyundai’s N Grin Shift (NGS) system, the car gets an extra 10 hp for shorter distances.

The Elantra comes in the distinctive Performance Blue. Inside, the seats are lowered by 10 mm, which provides a better connection between the driver and the vehicle. They are made of the best materials, with additional support for the driver. A lot of N branding can be seen inside, reminding us that this is no ordinary vehicle.
