Thanks for these tips especially the speaker one. Tried on mine and the sound quality did improve quite a bit. Honestly there's so many menu items in this car that if you can make a quick video on various interesting infotainment settings it might benefit the owners.
Hey glad it helped! Yeah, the menus do get overwhelming at times. There’s still probably a ton I don’t even know about. I’ll definitely consider making a video about navigating the menus though. Thanks for the idea!
I've been looking at N's trying to shop between these and the WRX, but I also own a Santa Fe and your tip about the wipers just blew my mind, THANK YOU! Washing my car and trying to clean the blades were so frustrating but I never bothered to check the manual to see how you adjust them (note to self: peruse the 500 page manual again sometime). Great content thank you!
That’s awesome! Glad it helped!
Wow that’s amazing how Hyundai has made it so the turbo isn’t a killer to the car and honestly I think that’s awesome that Hyundai has thought of fun sporty car but also some what still practical and won’t kill its self like most cars
i'll be picking 1 up in about a month. Cant wait! Awesome ride man.
Congrats! And thanks!
Hopefully I will be grabbing one of these Monday, thank you for taking the time to show off the features and drawbacks of the car. It is so helpful for us with limited time in the car before purchase
Glad the videos help! What color/transmission are you getting?
@@n-power-automotive Ceramic White. 8spd DCT. Just drove it tonight and couldn't begin to explain how it felt more raw than my current car, rough, but connected. Better. And the seats made a big difference, I'm curious based on what you have said in your videos about your frame. I am 6'6" and weigh a healthy 240lbs, so this is one of the only cars I have felt comfortable in that is so track focused.
@@vegas272007 I’ve seen guys your size say the seats are comfortable. I must have wide hips or something lol. I’ve adapted to them. They don’t bother me as much as they used to. They definitely do what they’re designed to do and that’s hold you in place.
@@n-power-automotive They're a little narrow, I plan on... "adjusting" the bolster in the seat bottom. I have previously removed the metal bars in the seat of some of my old Imprezas for this exact reason
@@vegas272007 I’d love to know how you did this.
Getting my Elantra N in 2 weeks just can't wait, please make more videos like the infotainment :) thanks
Congrats! It’s on my list of video to make.
The thing with the sound system is, how good it sounds is very subjective, albeit the quality and design of the speaker system does play a part. Personally, I think it sounds pretty good as stock. But what makes these better is when there is an equalizer, a tool designed to adjust the outputs of the system to the user's preference. It's too bad it's only a three band equalizer though, I would have loved to have a nine band equalizer to really fine tine my sound. But most people unfortunately don't understand equalizers past 'high,' 'mid,' and 'low.'
Edit: I should also add that it is possible to use equalizers on the connected device when using Bluetooth or through Android Auto/Apple Carplay to give a far more vast amount of control over how it sounds. Plenty of good equalizer apps exist, and even built in features can be great tools, too.
Not gonna lie, I pushed my car really hard yesterday and the fan stayed on for about 10 minutes after I turned the car off lol
Yep, I’ve experienced that myself!
The longer it stays on, the more fun you had
@@Live.dronesfalse
You should keep the engine running or all that hot oil is gonna pool in one place which is bad for the future.
That is crazy about the turbo timer; 29 years ago my wife had the Mitsubishi Eclipse turbo. In the owner’s manual, meaning not myth, it said after driving the car for a long time to sit in the car at your destination, wait 15 minutes, then shut the car off. Imagine we just drove one and one half hours from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara, then we have to wait 15 minutes until we could turn off the car! We were told otherwise the turbocharger would seize because it melted; have always resisted turbochargers but then we had a loaded Malibu and loaded Optima both with 265 hp & 265 torque and after each long trip never knew if I was committing engine suicide after shutting the car off at end of a long trip. Here come EN to prove how important the truth was what the driver’s manual said 29 years ago but nothing about this in the Malibu or Optima manual.
Yes, it’s a pretty fantastic feature. I was a little incorrect in calling it a turbo timer though. What it does is circulate coolant through the turbo for a minute or two after shutting the engine off, not leave the engine running and shut it off after a period of time, so it’s slightly different techniques, but pretty much the same results.
FYI basically every modern performance-oriented turbo car has this feature.
I looooove this car. Only 5 days with it so far and I’m just in love.
Nice!
Had my Elantra N for 1 year and had no clue about those audio setting need to change that asap. Thx for the video
So glad to help! Hopefully you feel the audio settings make a big difference. How has your EN treated you over a year of ownership?
I really enjoy these videos that you make, I’m getting mine next month and the tips are already helpful.
Glad to help! What color/trans are you getting?
@@n-power-automotive I’m getting the performance blue DCT. I don’t know how to drive manual that’s why and I hear the DCT is faster.
@@zamardi the DCT is really fun despite not being a manual. Good luck with the new car.
@@n-power-automotive Thanks, I’ll definitely keep any eye out for any of your new and upcoming videos.
Thank you for sharing! Never knew it would have a turbo timer
Once again I have found something useful from your videos. +5, 0 +9 FTW
Makes a world of difference, right?
Normal mode 100% both exhausts on my car it’s visible. Now my car has never been in temp below 60 perhaps it’s temperature dépendant on start up.
How do you know it comes out of both? Have you seen the exhaust even though it hasn’t gotten below 60?
@@n-power-automotive
Correct can see very light white color exhaust gas coming out both exhaust sides and you can place your hand directly in front of exhaust tips and feel the exhaust coming out both sides. **as experiment I just rolled car out of garage and started. Outside temp is 33 in Vegas this morning and sure as S… exhaust only exiting out one side. It’s unusually cold and humid , for Las Vegas, so perhaps temp and humidity has a factor.
@@uutube243 might be. I’ll have to take a look on a warmer day.
Ahhh. I have so many people ask me why my car is still running after I turn it off.
The stereo sound is also much better depending on the sound quality of the app you are using.
Tidal and Deezer sounds much better than Spotify.
I thought the Bose factory sounded amazing I am very shocked you say it's not good. But then again I came from beater car speakers so this sounded heavenly to me. I never touched the settings since. Even none of my friends complained about the speakers and said they were great.
It’s not terrible, but the equalizer settings definitely help. I came from a very good sounding Boston Acoustics system in my Dodge Charger, so that’s what I had to compare it to. It is better than the system in the Honda Accord I had briefly between those two cars though.
Just test drove a used one. 6MT. Loved it. It didn't feel as quick as my tuned Civic 1.5t but everything else about it was better by a mile. It will be my next car.
Nice! I’m surprised it didn’t feel as fast. But the 2.0 should last longer than the 1.5T with a extra boost, at least from what I’ve heard.
@@n-power-automotive I think it’s mainly because my tune has dramatically ramped up the throttle response in my civic. So if the 2 cars dragged I’m sure the N would crush me.
I wouldn't call that a "Turbo Timer"
This feature is common a lot of euro turbocharged cars. For example on my Porsche 944 turbo, it has this feature. You then the car off, and you can hear the AUX waterpump pushing water though the turbo to cool it down. If the coolant is at temp, the fans stay on to cool the rad down till it's happy. If it's hotter, the fans run at speed to quickly cool the rad down.
Im waiting for mt Elantra N to arrive but when i test drove it, i noticed the rad fans stayed on after a pretty normal drive.
Yes, though not a true turbo timer, it’s an auxiliary coolant pump that keeps the coolant flowing through the turbo after you shut the car off to help prevent caking. It does do it most of the time, even if you’re not hard on the car, which I’m ok with. Anything to prolong the longevity of the engine/turbo I’m happy with.
No sunroof? It's a bose dude. I'm sure it's excellent like the one in my Verloster Turbo.. But better sound in XM
Mine has a sunroof. The Bose is good, but not great.
Actually, coolant is being run through the turbo after shutdown, not oil. It does provide extra cooling. I have a Veloster N and it works the same way.
Yes, you’re right. I misspoke in the video.
Weird. I thought it was just the radiator fan kicking on. Did you read that it was circulating oil too somewhere?
I did but I can’t remember where. It’s definitely not the radiator.
Radiator fan continues to run as well as the electric water pump for the turbo for a little bit after you turn it off.
It isn't oil it's 100% coolant flowing when you turn it off. I have already had to replace my auxiliary water pump for the turbo as it was making a horrible noise when you turned the car off.
Interesting. I can’t find a straight answer online if it’s oil or coolant, but I believe you. I assumed it was oil because that’s usually what cools a turbo, but good info to know.
I love your videos. Very informative.. Can you please cut on saying actually actually?...
That’s helps to keep people from stealing wipers blades lol
🤣 good point!
Kinda random question but what mpg do you usually get (and what kind of driving and in what mode)? Im cross shopping this car with a GTI and one thing going for the GTI is it can reliably do 30mpg on 87 octane
I average 28 MPG combined. I drive mostly suburban, but we take it on family trips too, so it sees some highway as well. It can easily do 30 MPG + on the highway. My worst tank was 23 MPG, my best 33 MPG.
@@n-power-automotive thanks for the reply Worst being 23mpg really isn't bad at all. Pretty solid
@@Courtesyflush52 it’s really great gas mileage for the performance you get. I do take it pretty easy on the car most of the time, but I put it in N mode at least once each drive.
With 87 you do get slightly better mileage on the EN. Once I started running 93 regularly my tank range dropped under 300 miles and pretty much always gives about 287 miles when I would get around 320 or so with lower octane.
@@Courtesyflush52 I wouldn’t recommend 87 octane in the Elantra N personally though.
love the vid and i dont even have this car lol
Thanks!
Getting a wet DCT car soon, if anyone could answer my question that would be great, since this will be my first DCT car. I was wondering how I should be decelerating when going from 60mph to a gradual stop, do I use the engine break without touching the break, or do I break while downshifting?
Additionally when does a DCT disengage the clutch, as soon as I touch the break or only in first gear when breaking to a stop? Someone please educate me. 😇
You use the brakes just like a normal torque converter automatic transmission. The clutch will disengage when you come to a complete stop.
@@n-power-automotive Thanks for the quick response I guess I was overthinking it.
@@zamardi you’re welcome! This is my first DCT, too. The only time it feels really different from a normal torque converted automatic is when accelerating from a dead stop or a slow roll. I’ve found the best way to keep it from being clunky is by applying very light throttle and gradually rolling into it almost like in a manual when you’re letting off the clutch pedal. That’s the time you can really feel the clutch engaging. It’s a fantastic transmission once you get used to it.
Wait, so the Elantra N has a Bose? The Kona N has Harmon Kardon.
Yep, Bose in the EN. I’m not sure why they’re different, but they are.
Interesting, I really haven’t fooled around with settings in my Kona but on the first couple of listens I wasn’t all that impressed. Not gonna lie tho, I spend most of my time listening to the exhaust note.
@@oraclemiata845 exactly! I usually turn the radio down when I’m in N mode to listen to the exhaust lol.
What is that elantra N you have at the red trim behind the front wheels?
It’s a decal. I made an entire video about it. If you look on my channel you’ll find it.
ruclips.net/video/NBpgAeveWZ4/видео.html
@@n-power-automotive thank you sir
Love the wheels man! what’s the name on them?

Hello 169 Design, Is it possible to change the turbo timer from 30 seconds to say 1 minutes?
No, it’s all controlled by the computer, but the longer/harder you drive, the longer the fan will circulate coolant (not oil like I originally said) through that turbo. I believe the Civic Type R does the same thing now too.
Not a turbo timer. That fan has nothing to do with the flow of oil. Engines off it ain't moving oil through turbo.
Yep I was wrong. It’s coolant that’s circulated through the turbo when the cars shut off.
How do you get the display with just the one center circle like you have here? And can you have the one circle on N mode?
Not sure what you’re asking.
@@n-power-automotive*No problem, my bad. I thought i had a N, but i have the N Line. So nevermind. I got screwed to, they sold me the N Line for the price of a N. And i didnt even know there was two "n"'s . So im stuck with a stupid N Line, but paid the price of a N for it. I need hyundai from now on to make just one "N" car so people dont get screwed. ✌️
The fan don't have anything to do with turbo don't u keep car on with turbo timer
The fan does, but it’s not like a traditional turbo timer. Just similar to cool the oil in the turbo.
the stereo sounds great what are you talking about
Not straight out of the box IMO.
It's an entry level Bose system. If youve ever heard the phrase "no highs, no lows, must be a Bose" its referring to the lack of clarity at the bass and treble ends of the spectrum. But like he showed in the video, you can kinda compensate with raising the high/low
It still sounds far better than any other stock system I've heard
@@damienfrizzell9394 I came out of my Charger R/T which had a 368 watt Boston Acoustic stock system. It sounded way better than the Bose.
@@n-power-automotive I came out of a Suzuki Swift it had speakers make out of rice paper and so does the large majority of cars on the road right now. My other car is running 1500 watt aftermarket system and I have ,$1100 in ear earphones . The stock n system is more than adequate to keep me happy
I'm picking mine up in a few weeks, as soon as it arrives from shipping!
I keep reading that this car has a heated steering wheel but doesn't seem to be any button around to activate it. Can you shed some light on that?
Nice congrats! US cars don’t get a heated steering wheel. Are you outside the US?
@@n-power-automotive Yeah I'm in Canada and the heated steering wheel is listed as a feature in the spec sheet online.
@@styles234 ok I was wondering if you were in Canada. I’m not sure where the button is to tell you the truth.
@@n-power-automotive Well when the car shows up, I'll reply to this and let you know!
Hey @josh I have one in aus and there's literally a button in the middle area - next door to the heated seats basically. Super easy to use and quick to warm up
You still have the old radio display. Don't want to update your infotainment?
I haven’t updated it. I like the tubes too much lol.
@@n-power-automotive I don't blame you. I do miss it.
@@thegreatdlux so you did the update I take it? What, if any, new features are there? The only thing I know is the radio up and down buttons on the steering wheel are fixed.
Nothing in this video was a quirk or feature. Many makes and models have wiper service mode esp euro cars, for years now. Both exhausts opening is a given in N mode. Most if not all turbo charged cars, again for years, will run a fan after shut down.
The stereo really needs some sound deadening in the doors to make it really come alive, I’ll have to try your eq out.
Might not be quarks, but definitely features.
If people only read the car manuals...
Damn 10k miles in 3 weeks?
Uh, huh?
@@n-power-automotive I think he thinks a 2023 model means it came out in 2023 and that you've driven it 10k miles in one month
@@Courtesyflush52 ah ok. It’s a 2022, not a 2023.
