I bought a '23 Hyundai Elantra N (DCT) a few months ago - I love how nimble it is, how fun it is to drive on the road, the exhaust never gets old, definitely cool to have a "rare" car on the road - you don't see many of them, and the gas mileage is an added bonus (easily getting 30MPG+ in eco)!😎 The dual personality makes it a perfect daily and a fun "weekend" car! For anyone at all interested in one - test drive it, and you'll be SOLD!

Kona N driver here. Huge fan of the DCT and the tech and UX in general. The displays hold 60 Hz and the software does not crash! People who believe they'd prefer a manual need to think again. You mostly have to jump to something European and spend double to get a DCT. The Japanese options (Civic Type R, WRX, GR Corolla) don't offer DCT. 4 software-definable buttons and TWO custom drive modes. You hold any N or star button and then you pick what it does in nav. Super-fast and every critical feature is a real button! As someone with a UX background, these systems are refreshingly well-designed and quick to use.

I bought my first new car, a 24 Elantra N and couldn't be any more happier. This car is great. I already have a dozen cosmetic mods already on it's way.

I own a 22 N manual and two years later I still get a thrill driving it. I’m grateful that despite me being in my 40s only recently have I gotten into learning about performance cars. And yes I know this isn’t a high performance car, lol. My point though is that I didn’t have any bias against Hyundai like many others who post comments and that is why I bought one. I based my purchase decision on what owners, reviewers, and journalists had to say and they pretty much universally raved about the Elantra N. I couldn’t be happier. It’s been reliable and despite Hyundai’s questionable rep with respect to long term reliability, I have a feeling that this Hyundai is just built different.

Anyone in here talking about how bad the Elantra n is just flat out hasn’t seen one or driven one in real life on the road. This car turns heads and it’s unrivaled in terms of smiles per gallon straight out of the factory that’s is AFFORDABLE. This cars punches above its class.

Their warranties are scoped though. I’ve owned two Hyundais whose engines seized after 60k miles, the engine was repaired under warranty, but the exhaust was shot, and there was a laundry list of other issues. The quote to fix everything comes out to more than the car is worth. But, if you keep it for less than 5 years or 60k miles it’s not too bad

Have had my 23' dct for over a year now. It's always a joy to drive. Tested both Manual and dct , the dct just made the car more alive.

I bought one three weeks ago and I’m never using launch control. A turbo 4 cyl is not a drag racer, it’s a punchy corner carver. This car has just enough fun factor to be engaging, inexpensive enough to not feel guilty using it, and niche enough that only WRX drivers know what you’re driving. For me, it has a few party pieces that help it stand out from its closest competition.

I’ve been using my 2022 Elantra N DCT as a family car for 2 years and it’s more than adequate for family duty. My teen and tween fit comfortably in the back and it has great trunk space for the size of the car. The suspension is completely fine in normal mode, and going down to 18’s helps with ride comfort. I run Continental DWS 06+ on mine and it’s the perfect mix of all season drivability and performance. Launch control can be tricky and I’ve experienced it not working when lining up at the tree at the drag strip, but I’ve found turning traction control off completely by holding down the traction control button for 5 seconds usually helps launch control work more consistently. As far as looks go, I still prefer the pre facelift but that’s just me.

I promise you it's so good. If you're undecided between the Manual and Dual Clutch transmission, the DCT is one of the best in its class, but the manual is the easiest I've ever driven.

Kona N here, launch control is sometimes finicky, but you just have to ensure the steering wheel is perfectly straight. That’s the thing that matters most I found.

The engine in this isn't bespoke, it's a Theta ll which has been around since like 2010. It's tweaked for this application, but it's literally a motor that's gone into stuff like the Santa Fe and Sonata. The DCT is nearly identical to ones going into Santa Cruz and Sorentos. And that's not to say any of this is a bad thing, because sharing parts with common cars means repairs can be done much cheaper and easily. With how long this motor design has been around, it's probably pretty well refined in terms of reliability.

Great video. Might trade in my Civic Si for one of these!

Jersey boy with a 2019 Camry XSE. The Conti DWS06+ is a beast of a tire it smoothed out my ride and grips like a tank in the snow come snowboard season.

I order a Performance Blue 24 in December of 2023. Was told the manuals were on "indefinite" hiatus and I could only get a DCT. Fast forward to April when my car arrived and the dealer threw a $4,500 mark up on the car (tried an $8,000 mark up) and tried to blame Hyundai Canada for it by saying they "lie on their website" to get customers to come into the stores. Then manuals started showing up at the beginning of May. Have had the car for almost 3 months, have done 2 track days and love it. I recommend it to anyone looking for a fun practical sports car. Just stay away from greedy Edmonton dealers looking to charge Type R money.

i just traded in my 23 N for a 24 AMG Mercedes. I loved the N such a great car for anyone looking for fun on a decent budget

Loved this, love the N's, I've got the i20n and absolutely agree that the power is tuned beautifully to everything else about the cars, awesome 💙

I have a 2024 Elantra N and it’s amazing! Tip: don’t launch it at 3500rpm. Yes the tires may still spin at a lower rpm but in my experience, it’s not hard to get a flawless launch if the rpm’s are lower

Guess Hyundai really didn't change the lower engine bushings. It's really a QoL after you change it, completely removes the tire hop. There is a slight increase of NVH after but mostly on idling and when you have music off and listening carefully. I've got the purple (performance) from powerflexusa and its been fun launching it, of course a lot of burning rubber lol

Reason to buy this as a first car: - It is a manual - It adheres to gentleman's agreement in Japan and Europe so you won't lose control

My bad mods from the 90s - flip up head units w/neon lights - grant steering wheels (no airbags) - no fear stickers - cherry bomb exhaust - speaker boxes w/carpet - k&n filters w/sticker to prove you had it. - CD changer in trunk - fake stick on hood scoops (cdntire specials) - big wings on trucks (thanks Ram SRT-10) - fire extinguisher 🧯 (others mods caused fire hazards)

Lol, I like the black wheels way more than the press photo ones.

Great review! Only thing I disagree with is the ride comfort not being as good as the type R. In the softest (or even medium) setting, I can cruise with the kids in the back; no complaints. Other than that, agree with all the other issues, including launch control! 😂😂

Need to hold traction control button until it’s fully off, there you go. That’s literally the only thing you were missing. Keep wheel straight, ensure traction control Is fully off, activate launch control and your good. Also launch control can be re-engaged after a small period of time, just like ngs for the dct. The wheels are 8lbs lighter per corner, and forged so they are a significant upgrade performance wise. The wheel hop can be eliminated with a $40 bushing for the lower engine mount that takes 15 mins to install.

@11:14 The reaction to launching at 3500 rpms was hilarious...I felt that. 😂😂

I’m so happy you showed the launch control not working. I’ve had the same issue with my 2022 Elantra N DCT since the day I bought it. It’s very frustrating. I can launch my wife’s Veloster N with no issue, but for some reason the Elantra N doesn’t let me do it.

I am about 3 months from picking mine up. Can't decide what color but I'm really starting to feel that red. It looks a little more elegant on the N. Almost understated.

Launch control can only be engaged on flat ground so the car can’t roll AT ALL when off the brakes.

I just got the DWS06+'s for my '18 Elantra GT Sport, here in the Lower Mainland, BC. They're quite a bit firmer/rougher riding at recommended pressure than the OG Hankooks, and on-center is a bit squirmier, but that is possibly improving as they wear in. Or I might just be getting used to it. Dry grip is astounding. Much more than you'd ever need on the street, unless you street drive like a fool. Wheel hop during launch is basically gone on a dry road. Wet grip is also amazing. I really have to try to spin, rather than the OG's which really made wet launches impossible. They're no more loud than the Hankooks, and actually quieter than worn ones. That's what finally made me switch, other than the hydroplaning starting to creep in more than I'd like. Got almost 80k out of em, and probably could have squeezed another few thousand summer KMs. Can't complain. They had good feel and manners at least. If these Conti's last as long as the Hankooks, I'll be pretty happy.

From my personal experience, these hyundai turbo petrols are fun to drive for the first few months and then the novelty wears off and it gets especially annoying once the GDIs start self destructing as they near 100k miles. I learnt my lesson the hard way, I went ahead and sold it and then bought a corolla, because the service center was sort of becoming my second home. My corolla feels dead in comparison, no doubt about it. But atleast it won't leave me stranded at 1 am waiting for a tow truck in the middle of nowhere.

Looks way better!! Glad Hyundai is really embracing what they do well, and continuing to be very disruptive in the budget enthusiast car segment.

hyundai has come a long way and im loving the brand. their i20N is gorgeous, giving me a modern feel of the first honda type r

Like the elantra N and N line

The black wheels look great and save weight. Much better than the older ones they replaced. The alfa romeo style wheels look really bad; glad they didn't end up going with those.

I added some red rims to my cyber grey 23 elantra N, and it really brings out the red on the side skirt. I didn't wanna go black because it seems like the heavy trend now. I had my Genesis coupe rims powder coated satin black a few years back, and while I love the look with the black spoiler on it, carbon fiber hood, and black grill, I didn't wanna do that with my Elantra

Color doesn't save weight whatsoever.......

@@stealth.gr4 agreed, but a totally different design and material (alloy vs aluminum) nets 33 lbs of weight savings for the new black wheels vs the older machined ones.

Have to turn traction all the way off with the traction off button, full N mode isn’t enough, more consistent with DCT version at least

FWIW, the wheels in the press photo that you showed at ~7:05 are identical to the ones on your test vehicle, except the press photo wheels appear to have been diamond turned. You can see the same 3-slash motif at five points around the wheel, and the spokes are in the same alignment.

Yes. Makes them look totally different

Family person here, I've had multiple STI... Would consider this vehicle yes

Just found my accord replacement ! #SaveTheManuals

I've never had any launch issues with mine. That said, I've probably only launched it twice, it's not really the car for that anyways.

Note, the Elantra N makes over 30 more whp than the VN on the same dyno but is super underrated from the factory. The 276/289 HP/tq is actually a call back to the gtr, that famously also sandbagged its power numbers to stay under the gentleman's agreement. Just a fun fact

Great video! If you think launch control is hard to get, try octane learning! I've had my 6MT EN for almost 10 months and have never gotten it to octane learning once. And that's following the steps in the owner's manual as well as trying different methods others have used successfully. Very frustrating!

Got mine to octane learn 3 times in less than month on the 24

Maybe it’s been improved with the 24. I got my dct to octane learn every tank with ~5 mins of highway driving.

Same, I could never achieve octane learning in my 6 speed EN

@@SangatSingh01 From what I have seen with other owners, it seems the DCTs are much much easier to OL. 5-10 mins on the highway and done. For the 6MT guys, it's hit or miss.

I had no idea that you had to do that! Suuuper lame!

It looks a million times better

I want one so badly 😅

It looks best in white imo

Those are the wheels from the press release they look great. It's the same style thats on the cayenne turbo gt.

The older one looks way better!
