2022 Hyundai Elantra N for Sale in Hyannis, MA
Overview
The 2022 Hyundai Elantra just got a whole lot more exciting with the debut of the all-new high-performance N variant. Hyundai’s N division – which traces its origins from the Namyang R&D Center in South Korea and the legendary Nürburgring racetrack in Germany – is a performance-plus sub-brand that provides versions of well-established Hyundai models for true driving enthusiasts. Along with the Veloster N hot hatch and the high-output Kona N subcompact crossover, the Elantra N now stakes its claim to the suffix. And while it’s certainly bred for the racetrack, the Elantra N is also a terrific vehicle for everyday driving. Plus, it’s backed by the best warranty in the industry (5 years/60,000 miles basic and 10 years/100,000 miles powertrain) and boasts a complimentary maintenance plan that covers routine oil changes and tire rotations for 3 years/36,000 miles.
Performance Specs
The Elantra N performance sedan has a sport coupe profile and signature red accents that contribute to its aggressive look. That said, it has the bite to match its bark thanks to a potent turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that whisks out 276 hp and 289 lb.-ft. of torque. A six-speed manual gearbox comes standard to delight the typical N Line customer, but an eight-speed wet dual-clutch automatic with paddle shifters is optional. No matter which transmission you choose, it’ll feed power to a front-wheel drivetrain.
In addition to high-performance brakes, an electronically controlled sport-tuned suspension, and a standard rear chassis brace, the Elantra N has a few other performance-enhancing qualities, including Launch Control. The thrilling drive mode called N Grin Shift (automatic transmission only) increases power for 20 seconds, and N-Corner Carving Differential reduces understeer to enhance traction and turning speed.
Noteworthy Attributes
The ’22 Elantra N’s outward appearance shows off automatic LED headlights, 19-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S summer performance tires, performance brakes with class-exclusive 14.2-inch ventilated front rotors, a matte black grille and rear diffuser, gloss black window trim and heated fold-away side mirrors with turn-signal indicators, body-color door handles, a wing-type rear spoiler, unique front and rear bumpers and side sill moldings, a roaring variable exhaust system with dual outlets. Hyundai’s Digital Key comes standard as well, letting you lock, unlock, and start the vehicle directly from your smartphone.
Inside the Elantra N, you’ll find class-exclusive light leather-and-microsuede black sport seats (heated in front) with blue contrast stitching and an illuminated N logo, an N-embossed leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, a sunroof (automatic transmission models only), alloy door sill plates and sport pedals, a 10.25-inch digital gauge cluster, a high-performance data screen (displays a shift indicator, lap timer, track map, and other performance content), dual USB ports (one for charging and the other for data), a wireless phone charger, dual-zone automatic climate control, and 64-color customizable ambient interior lighting.
Infotainment and Driver Aids
