  • Want enthusiast grade driving dynamics at a reasonable price? Hyundai offers bang-for-the-buck with the Elantra N. Upgraded for 2024, there are some real changes that make it a better car, things like improved brakes and forged aluminum alloy wheels. And at just under $35,000 it’s fully loaded with grippy sport seats, adjustable suspension and Bose sound. And yes, there’s a 6-speed manual. Tom Voelk checks it out on an autocross course at WeatherTech Laguna Seca.
    Tom attended a Hyundai sponsored even for the review. Opinions are his own. Accuracy is important.

    I had an elantra 2012. Had good luck as it didnt have any issues thru 160k miles. But it was numb. Glad to see sedans get performance to stand out from suv. Now if only we could get hot hatches again. Maybe their accent would be an N hit

    Props to Tom to a fun review and to Hyundai for turning a pedestrian FWD sedan into a respectable sporty car. Yeah, there are better ones out there but they're not better by huge margins. Not crazy about the looks of current Hyundai vehicles but that's very subjective. Track times, OTOH, aren't.

      Me? I'd go with the manual because I like the action. But that's a personal choice, especially if you drive in stop and go traffic a lot. The manual saves you money, there's that.

    Do any of the Elantra N owners have to worry about the car theft from the failed engine immobilizers or not since that was models 2011 to 2021? Elantra N started in 2022. Any advice?

      No. And the theft issue only applied to Kia/Hyundai vehicles with physical key start, not push button for those who don't know.

    Sigh............ Just another wake-up call to say that "At least 99% of us DO NOT "PLAY WITH CARS" -- we DON'T buy "sports cars" or "wanna-be sports cars." Good grief, WHY?? We're mired in traffic, and if you want to do a "slalom," well, quite often half of the cars on the road are doing 10 to 15 MPH below the speed limit, anyway. Just try to get around those folks without bashing into someone (and GOOD LUCK with that), and that's as much "sport" as we're ever going to use. Yes, we want competent handling, and enough power to pass safely on the open highways. It's a very rare vehicle these days that can't accomplish that. No, Tom, what we need is SOMETHING WE CAN AFFORD TO BUY, which is the most difficult thing to find, entirely. Can we float back down to Earth some day, and try to find vehicles that "normal" people might actually be able to buy, and use the way that 99% of us do with motor vehicles in our daily lives? Please?

      Just about all of the cars today are made for exactly what you are asking. This is one of like 3 affordable sporty cars made today. If you wanted an Elantra that is fully loaded you can buy one cheaper than this N model. The Honda Civic with the new hybrid is under 30k and has the passing power you are looking for at what would be considered affordable these days.

    • @DrivenCarReviews
      @DrivenCarReviews  25 дней назад +9

      Even in everyday driving, this vehicle is a cut above. A base Elantra will do what you’re asking. Also try Trax, Envista, HRV, Venue, and the new Kicks. Lots of choices.
