2023 Hyundai Elantra N | Fast & Family-Friendly?

[@drewdanger]

Best family car channel! Love the detailed breakdown of the car and the lack of too many cringey jokes that other family car channels seem to have!!! I just want to see how my wife and kids would do in a car and this helps a lot!

[@CapELarry]

I’ve never driven the Elantra N but I have a Kona N, and I find it to be more fun than my M4. I adore that car. For $32k I can’t believe how fun it is.

[@chemjam92]

Glad you 12:26 enjoy it but for me a performance vehicle is not a SUV but a car.

[@khronin]

@@chemjam92 I also have a Kona N and I took it to 157 mph on a tollroad--not many cars can do 155 plus and get 30mpg if u drive it normal,.

[@Young_Bourdain]

Center of gravity is too high

[@khronin]

@@Young_Bourdain it was only .2 seconds slower then the elantra n at rd atlanta--I will take the ride height over worrying when my front lower lip of my car is gonna get destroyed or scuffed up

[@vr6gls]

@@khroninorry but an SUV will never have the dynamics of a true sports car. If I want performance, an SUV ain’t it. Also, the Kona has barely any more ground clearance than a standard car. That’s a weak argument.

[@geraldgardiner]

Just got my N and love it but watched your video a couple times before pulling the trigger. Just so you know. I drove car from Texas back home to Nashville and got almost 39 mpg in eco mode. Car is named 'Pop's because that's what it does when I drive it but still waiting for a complaint from a neighbor, we shall see! Thanks for the great work and it's great as a daily driver as well!

[@MotoguyX5]

Love my EN! One of the reasons I went with the N over the GR86 I almost got was the fact that I have a family. We also have my wife's SUV but it's nice that we can all fit into both of our vehicles.

[@peiwu979]

I wish my wife would like this car. I have the N-line 6 speed and I love it. Can't imagine how the N will feel!

[@ferasalbinmohamed1029]

Fun review: lunch control, crotch sunglasses, Evie-approved styling and driving approachability, and kiddo’s style had me thinking Rainbow Brite (in a good way). Must watch! 👍

[@2s2ks]

When I'm starving I can't control myself at lunch, so it's nice to see this car has lunch control!

[@billharris7235]

Based on Evie's expression during launch control, Hyundai might need to add an additional safety feature - sphincter control!

[@Billn1971]

Thanks for the sunday morning laugh. I do need to replace my temporary $7 sunglasses from Dollar General store. 😅 I broke my nice ones last week.

[@kelzz3000]

Evie is so cool and laid back❤, oh yeah Micah's cool too

[@rosemaryb486]

I have been waiting for you to do a video on this car. Although I would’ve preferred you do a video on the manual since that’s what I’m planning on buying. They are very difficult to find and luckily I’m not in a hurry. I enjoy watching your videos, and this one is good too, however,I feel you missed an opportunity to talk about the exhaust note. That’s one of the reasons I want to buy one!

[@richardmahoney9415]

Sold they got me with the light up N logos on the seat

[@justincredible1990]

I love this car. I'd definitely daily drive it. It looks so good in white. I much prefer the look of the front fascia on this to the one on the newer version though. Also, you didn't mention the cool sounding pops and bangs in N mode. 😊

[@jeffreycormier3864]

I will be first in line at my local Hyundai dealership when the 2024 is available for order. Cyber grey, manual.

You all driving in the San Bernardino mountains? That’s my old home town. I also have an Elantra N-Line and I love it. Thanks for the video!

[@wiredspeaker5658]

After 30 years of stupid SUV dominance its refreshing to see the joy of driving return with several legit affordable sports car offerings like this Elantra N. Although this one is really in a class by itself.

[@jamesfish8336]

I caught myself clapping along when sweetie did the launch control. 😂❤

Great review! Please please please review the Kona N if you haven’t already.

The “N” is for naughty lol. I love the husband wife review with u two you can tell u guys are really happy together brightens my day at least lol

[@Ghanshyam00000]

This Hyundai Elantra is perfect for a family of five people who can sit comfortably however you mentioned in this review about the gt corolla that even though the Corrola has a little bit high range of hp and torque but they haven't provided sufficient amenities for a car but Elantra price is best common people can use this car seats are comfortable 276 hp and 289 lb-ft pound-feet torque that 8-speed dual-clutch transmission this is a snappy car I will give 5 stars to this car thanks

[@TopGear759]

Despite mine currently being in for a new DCT. My favorite car.

[@ferasalbinmohamed1029]

Damaged? How?

[@mugdays]

It's wild to me that Hyundais have dual clutch transmissions and BMW M cars have torque-converter automatics lol

[@ShaiyanHossain]

BMW got lazy and wants to use the zf8 for everything since it scales for awd on their larger m cars. it also upshifts faster than the old m dct too.

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Great review as always!😸

[@kiwan5425]

I saw an Elantra Yellow cab. The coolest looking cab ever seen.

[@93455Driver]

Have been jonesing to swap my GTI......while the Golf R, Type R, and GR Corolla are up there, but pricey when this amazing sounding Elantra is 5-10k and a longer warranty.

[@porfiriato84]

Doooo eetttt!!!

[@93455Driver]

@@porfiriato84 Kind of cool to be spoiled for choice, came close to getting the GR Corolla, but tbh, I want the Core more than the Circuit, that CF roof is a bit showy. Other option is to mod the Mk7 GTI, according to the Carmugdeon Show rear sway bar, engines and good tires, does a lot.

It's drama free as a daily with 18' wheels. Wish my stock 19' didn't have a blow from small pothole, days before I was going to take it to the track for the first time. I'm now running on my 18' snow tires till I get it fixed.

@@mharro88 4S on 19th are awesome for performance. Perfect for weekend track use (while essentially getting it for free with new car purchase). For Daily, aftermarket 18th is a must.

[@mharro88]

@@psewgobind don't 18s just kill all the performance then? Do you still get feedback and good turnin? Road noise must be better?

@@mharro88 Not as good, but far from 'killing' the car's ability. I'm getting tired of waiting on the dealership, so I'm considering taking those 245/40/18 Kumho to the track. They're still good enough to be fun (one hot lap at a time).

The only thing I don't like about this car is the rear end. To me it narrows down a little too much but that's a problem I have with all Hyundai/Genesis products

[@BradWilson1969]

Regarding the "style circle", from what I saw in another video, they have a similar spot in the new Sonata that's used as a fingerprint reader. I don't know if this one was ever supposed to be that, but it makes no sense as it is.

[@porfiriato84]

The 2024 Elantra N will also have the fingerprint reader function

[@mharro88]

@@porfiriato84 no it wont, its still a circle

I can’t remember where I saw it but someone said you actually can’t use the pass through a for a harness on the seat they’re simply there for looks

Not a fan of the looks but as a newly family man i think this the only affordable fun car in my situation. I'm getting bored of driving my wife's 2013 4cyl accord. I bought her a Honda passport after we had kids (twins) . Looking for something fun to drive that's still practical enough to easily put 2 baby seats in the back and a decent auto in case the wife drives it. Since she can't drive a manual

[@davecarlson6275]

Try a WRX. Lots of room and fun.

[@revaholic]

My question is whether the ride is rough on this

[@mharro88]

its smooth

[@RohTo88]

holy sponsor shoutouts lmao

[@jordanbailey8022]

I owned a 2022 Elantra N for a year before I traded it in for a 2023 GTI. The Elantra N drives extremely well and is a ton of fun. However, the seats get extremely uncomfortable on longer road trips, some lumbar support adjustment could maybe fix this and there wasn't enough shoulder room for my 6'3" frame. Another note, build quality is pretty garbage, the side skirts will crack if you live in a colder climate (Maine for me). The red painted plastic on the lower trim is extremely thin and weak. Also, the exterior window trim has also been known to start peeling as it's just a vinyl wrap from factory to give it a gloss black look.

[@mharro88]

lol you traded it for a gti? how boring. the interior in the n is way better ergonomicaly than the golf shithouse infotainment

[@fightnight14]

This is the comment I needed. The Elantra-N is nice in terms of price to performance ratio but other than that its just pretty average

[@mharro88]

@@fightnight14 how's it average when it competes with the Honda type r in performance and objectively on track? Also beats out the golf r and corolla GR in lap times.

[@fightnight14]

[@jared123123]

Lol quite the fanboy mharro see you in every reply here. Passion is fine but your definitely biased

[@magnavoxfifty]

Thank you for being honest about the driving experience. I want a manual Elantra but not with all the sport garbage on it. I would like to know if the muffler seats, tires, suspension, can all be swapped with a stock Elantra and have that crossbar removed from the trunk. Delete the red trim and calipers paint those black. Then you might have a nice car. Not everyone wants a sports car that wants a manual transmission. After a hard day's work the last thing, I want is a suspension that makes me pay for every pothole I already paid to have filled in but wasn't. Hyundai really needs to get their heads out of their asses. Same with Toyota and Honda, I am not a child I do not want a hatchback.
