Unless you're on a track, there is absolutely no reason to use that DCT in manual mode for straight line racing. It's faster letting the car do it.

Finally, a video that I've been waiting for. Thank you, Sam! Bravo! Another great video and great match-up between the Elantra N vs the Civic Type-R. Amazing results. I can see you having trouble with the initial launch of the Elantra N.... Hyundai designed its own DCT and it does not like hard launch of its transmission. Probably to maintain its longevity/reliability. Also, when driving in a straight line, no need to do a manual shift on a DCT. Regardless, great job on the friendly matchup. For under $35k, the Hyundai Elantra N is a lot of car for the money. Respect to the Civic Type-R... a legend and great car.

When doing the rolls, your NGS feature is already off by the time you get to speed since you press it so early. Also, I believe the manual is gonna keep up MUCH better in the rolls compared to the DCT auto. Still crazy how much car you're getting for under 35k an with a few minor upgrades it's gonna be hard to stop.

Miata and brz are not fast but are the pinnacle of daily driver sports cars. Porsche 718 is a sports car In manual or auto.

Coming from a Honda Civic Sport 2019, I was looking to upgrade and my options were the type r or elentra n and I went with the N simply due to the price point with the crazy mark ups. MSRP 22 type r going for 58k while elentra n is 42k (Canadian).. 15k difference but you guy a car thats underrated at 286hp its def pushing 310-320 to the crank (there videos of stock N being dyno'd pushing 282 whp) with 15-20k you can do alot and still have lots of fun. Had my N for about two weeks and its amazing , exhaust sounds awesome, already got a few runs and safe to to say bang for buck you wont find a car at this price with this much power, let alone the customization options are amazing. Im a huge honda fan and always have and will be but hyundai is up coming, along with the 5 year engine/turbo warranty its safe to say im happy with my choice. Also love that it comes with manual and dct.. If type r came in dct it would be really interesting on a dig with the gulf.. Type R and Elentra N are the leaders for FWD technology.

Kind of tough to compare based on this vid because the Type R got a head start first race but then made a sandwich on the 1-2 shift at 4:27 (you can watch the palpable loss of acceleration the R had on the way to second at 3:57). Then the first roll seems solid but the second the Type R really got the jump at 6:23. So it's like combine that with the whole NGS button and launching business, and it seems like a race would be better had between drivers with a little more seat time in each car. But I guess that also kind of represents the real world if you encounter one another on the streets (of Mexico haha). Electronics are finicky to manage, shifts get f'd up, pacing get jumped, you kick yourself for riding the rev limiter, etc. Would love to see an on-track comparison and also how these cars times will compare at autocross this summer (I think they are in the same class to boot). My friend with an Elantra N tells me it loves to playfully oversteer and is a handful, but a good handful when the back end likes to slide a bit and it's practically yelling at you to mash the throttle! My R stays delightfully neutral even when the laws of physics say it shouldn't.

Basically feels like the car is always stuck in sport mode with sharp/snappy shifts. You won't win any races in it but it's not a slouch by any means. 6 speed may be the best way to go

REALLY hoping you can repeat this race when the new Civic Type R becomes available 😄

There it is folks from a dig Elantra N will win, but from a Roll and up, Elantra falls shorts…. Finally!! Thanks brother 💯💯💯🙌🏼

Solid solid stuff. I had a feeling the N would take it because of how well the owner was launching it. Wish there was more pops and burbles included from the N cause in person they were sublime

Important lesson: a car is only as fast as it’s driver

Thank you for doin mph conversion 🙌🙌

Perhaps not engaging NGS at the start would help. Then using it the second the tires hook up to benefit from the extra power, without compromising traction.

Hello Sam, thanks for your videos and since you have the possibility of being able to face these cars, I would ask you to face the Hyundai Elantra N vs the Kia K5 GT in a drag race the next time, since they basically have the same engine, the same front-wheel drive and a very similar power, it will be very good to see these two cars from the great Korean manufacturers compete.....greetings!!!

I bought my first Honda after they became official PU suppliers for Red Bull. Since then I m enjoying my Civic hatch and always wanted to buy the Type R but due to lack of transmission choices, never was. Looks like Honda is gonna be lazy with next gen as well. So Elantra N with a DCT it will be, I’ll just slap on some HRC stickers on the back window just like Red Bull did on their cars after Honda’s exit from the sport 😄🤷🏽‍♂️ P.S. Well done Sam, I wanted to see this comparison since this N was launched. So thank you and looks like I have found an another RBR fan 😄

@@msrr1303 I guess the real question is, is the performance difference of the new Type R going to be worth an additional 10-12K? I'd be surprised if you're able to find one for less than 50k.

Seems like a drivers race between these two cars however the N has better 1/4 mile times on paper from what I'm seeing in other videos (stock vs stock).

I wonder if the Elantra was in octane learning

To be fair first race the Type-R looks to have the jump and the N bogged really hard. Second race it looks like it is closer on the start but the Type-R had a little shift issue from first to second unless the N is just faster there due to the DCT. On the 30MPH roll, not surprised looked good on launch of both with the Type-R starting to go. The 60MPH roll well, I think Sam upshifted too soon and really flattened out the launch for the N. I would like to see another 60 roll with a driver change. I think it would be similar to the 30 roll with the Type-R having a car length lead at the end. But for the extra 12k in price difference, you can get some really nice mods on the N that I think would make a bigger difference then on the Type-R. The issue I have is in the Type-R price range, your looking at a Golf-R or a Audi S3. And the 2022 Golf R eats all of there lunch at that price point. The N wins it for me at a lower price point, better warranty. I can put that 12k into mods down the road and the sounds from the N well it just has more fun factor then the Type-R. This also coming from a Honda owner.

60mph roll: the Elantra was probably spinning at 3k rpm cuz it sounded like it took a long time to rev up which means it wasn’t in the power-band. While the type r looked like it jumped just a little and was probably already spinning at 5k rpm. So it was already in the power-band which is why the type r was so far ahead. But as you said the result would have been the same as the 30mph if everything was done right.

Great race!

Cai't wait to see the new Type R !

I would like to add that I cant wait to see the results of the manual vs manual.

The N is equal or even a bit faster. I honestly feel the N needs better drivers lol. When racing straight line there is no reason to shift the car yourself.. Just launch control and go.. As far as the roll races. Drop the N down into 2nd (30 roll) and 3rd (60 roll) and just floor it and have the car do the rest of shifting. The manual N won't be faster than the dct N either.

Type R is much powerful in 3-4th gear. Have been knocked out badly by Type R few times while driving my civic 1.5T.
