The seventh generation, 2021 Hyundai Elantra set the foundation for a truly great sport sedan. And in this 2022 Elantra N, Hyundai delivered. It’s not just the 276 hp turbocharged 2.0-liter, or the standard equipment, six-speed manual transmission, or the properly athletic, and adjustable, suspension tune. It’s the way the Korean brand put it all together to give the driver confidence to chuck in to a corner and see what’s what. You’ll have fun in the Elantra N. And you’ll look good doing it too.

In this video, I take you through the car, show you what features are offered and how they work. And then I take you on a drive to get a sense of how well it accelerates, handles, the quality of the ride, and the overall experience.
