2022 Hyundai Elantra N Teased Before Global Launch

Hyundai has released the first two teaser images of the long-awaited Elantra N.

The South Korean car manufacturer has been previewing the Elantra N since September last year and released a handful of images of camouflaged prototypes. A handful of YouTubers have even had the opportunity to test out the sedan in prototype guise. Now we can get a glimpse of the Elantra N without any camouflage.

Unsurprisingly, these two teasers depict the Elantra N in the N division’s customary shade of Performance Blue complete with red accents across the side skirts and rear diffuser. In addition, we can see that the Elantra N features large circular tailpipes like other Hyundai N models while also rocking a unique rear spoiler painted black.

Hyundai has also teased the wheels of the Elantra N which are quite different to those of the i20 N and i30 N and feature sharp spokes finished with silver and black.

“Elantra N is a high-performance sedan that reveals the sportier side of our exceptional all-new Elantra through exciting N brand enhancements,” vice president of the N brand Management & Motorsport sub-division at Hyundai Motor Company, Till Wartenberg said in a statement. “We designed it to be a race-proven sportscar with dynamic driving capabilities and style that performance enthusiasts love. I can’t wait to unveil Elantra N, an outstanding addition to the N brand lineup that offers pulse-pounding performance. Stay tuned for the digital world premiere.”

It is understood that the Hyundai Elantra N will be powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 275 hp. Customers will be able to choose between a six-speed manual or an eight-speed dual-clutch.

Hyundai hasn’t announced a date for the car’s unveiling but is promising to release more details “in the coming weeks.”

2021 Hyundai i20 N Line Has Sporty Looks And A 1.0-Liter With 118 HP

The 2021 Hyundai i20 N Line is the latest model in the automaker’s range to receive some performance-inspired parts and will arrive in certain markets next year.

The exterior of the hatchback is based on Hyundai’s ‘Sensuous Sportiness’ design identity and incorporates some modifications from lesser i20 models. For example, it receives a new front bumper with a grey character line that Hyundai says creates “an even more sporty feeling.” A large black cascading grille equipped with an L Line badge is also featured. The pattern of the grille itself draws inspiration from the style of a chequered flag.

Hyundai’s designers have continued the tweaks at the rear with a new bumper, twin chrome tailpipes, and a triangle-shaped fog light incorporated into the diffuser. A set of 17-inch alloy wheels with a two-tone finish complete the look.

Buyers will be offered Phantom Black, Aurora Grey, Polar White and Brass paint options. Those that opt for the Polar White can also option a two-tone Phantom Black roof.

Alterations continue in the cabin and include N-branded sports seats with the N logo and exclusive red stitching. There is also a dedicated N steering wheel, leather gear shift knob with red inserts, and metal pedals. Much like other i20 models, the i20 N Line includes the latest version of Hyundai’s Bluelink technology that includes a host of Connected Car services like Hyundai Live Services and various remote features through the Bluelink smartphone app.

Powering the i20 N Line is a 1.0-liter T-GDI turbocharged engine producing 118 hp. This engine can be optioned with 48-volt mild-hybrid technology to improve fuel efficiency. Hyundai’s Intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT) is also offered.

“With the all-new i20 N Line, we are bringing our stylish and sporty trim option to the i20 for the first time,” vice president of marketing and product at Hyundai Motor Europe, Andreas-Christoph Hofmann said. “With this new model, we are ensuring we can meet the needs of an even wider customer base by offering exclusive performance-styling inspired by our N brand to emphasize the motorsport roots of our brand.”
