Hyundai is set to redefine the compact sports sedan segment with the refreshed 2024 Hyundai Elantra N, a vehicle that not only promises dynamic driving experience but also boasts motorsport inspired performance and design. As Hyundai continues to make waves in the automotive world, the Elantra N stands out as beacon of exhilaration and combining enhanced ride and handling with distinctive aesthetic that embodies the brand's high-performance spirit.
The 2024 Elantra N showcases meticulous attention to detail in its ride and handling enhancements. reinforced engine-mount membrane reduces vibrations and improves agility and ensuring smoother and more responsive driving experience. G-bushing reinforcement enhances yaw response and steering precision, while new rear suspension S/ABS insulator, now made of urethane instead of rubber, contributes to improved damping and yaw response.
The Electronic Controlled Suspension (ECS) is not left untouched, with updated software optimized for the hardware changes. Hyundai engineers have fine-tuned the steering system, enhancing gearbox tolerances for better feedback and a direct steering feel. low-friction universal joint further increases precision, making every turn a thrilling experience.
New forged alloy wheels play pivotal role, reducing total unsprung weight by impressive 33 lbs. compared to the previous design. This weight reduction not only enhances handling response but also contributes to an overall improvement in ride comfort. Front and rear tire pressures have been adjusted to compensate for higher front-axle loads, striking the perfect balance between ride comfort and handling performance.
The 2024 Elantra N ensures optimal cooling without sacrificing aerodynamic efficiency. duct style air guard channels airflow more efficiently to the radiator, enhancing aerodynamics and cooling capability in extreme conditions. Drawing inspiration from motorsports, front-bumper air guide derived from the racetrack improves stopping performance by directing air directly over the braking system for superior heat dissipation.
Braking capabilities are further elevated with upgraded Electronic Stability Control (ESC) software and the addition of thermal protection on the front brake lines, enhancing endurance during intense driving situations.
Under the hood, the Elantra N houses specially developed 2.0T direct-injected engine, delivering an estimated 276 HP and 289 of torque to the front wheels. Drivers can choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an 8 speed dual clutch transmission, ensuring a personalized driving experience that caters to enthusiasts seeking both performance and control.
The 2024 Elantra N not only performs like sports car but also looks the part. The front of the vehicle boasts enhanced black trim, complementing the bolder bumper design and revised headlamps to create dynamic and aggressive face. N-specific red trim accents adorn the front and rear bumpers, including the side sill mouldings, providing distinctive high-performance appearance. The black-anodized emblem featuring the new identity of the N brand adds the finishing touch, emphasizing the model's sporty image.
