That N-Line looks great and the 2.5T sounds intriguing. If they could substantially undercut the Accord Sport 2.0T I bet it would sell wonderfully. Even I would be somewhat interested.

[@eppyz]

Substantially? Doubt that. Maybe $1000 less if that. The N Line will be low volume and not mass produced like the Accord Sport 2.0T is.

Yeah the 2.0 T Accord Sport is already only 30k which is 4 grand cheaper that this limited version so I really don't see that unfortunately!

[@captainjack6890]

Handling is where the Accord truly shines. Based on reviews the regular Sonata still haven’t improved a lot there. I can’t see Honda doing a Type R version of the Accord, they did have Accord Euro R though. Hopefully they revive that nameplate, because the Sport isn’t that exclusive.

[@honeste6652]

I truly don't get the point of the gear buttons. People say it clears up room, but with the gear shifting lever near the steering wheel, you'll get all you need for other stuff on the center console. The 2003 Honda Pilot has the best use of that space.

[@davidm5707]

I've wondered that myself. The button layout seems to have the same footprint as a lever shifter. The kind where you don't need to look down to see what gear you're selecting.

[@jordanbanko5347]

I would disagree. I don’t think this will totally disrupt the market, but the fact that Hyundai is putting a Turbo 4 in it says a lot. If you want more power out of the Toyota or Accord, you need to move to the V6s which are horrible on gas compared to the 4s. The N line will really shake things up because there really isn’t anything like it in this class besides VW Arteon of course.

[@kevinprince89]

@@devinbender8428 I'd have to disagree on that... Your views on Hyundai design is quite pessimistic. To be quite frank, all car designs look relatively similar so it's easy to say one is copying the other. There are several reasons why cars all look fairly similar, but I think Hyundai do just enough to make some detailed changes to make their cars stand out a little. If a car company wants to go all out radical with their design, they risk making something very polarizing; case in point, the Tesla Cybertruck
