Honda needs to release an Accord Type R with a DCT and make it the ultimate street sleeper, grocery getter, highway warrior, comfy cruiser as it doesn't need to be the track option like the CTR, it could be the perfect car for those of us that just want to confuse luxury car owners while having a quick comfortable nice reliable car to daily drive.

[@NOISYBOY0706]

Acura though. Also there is a type s badge for that.

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

Type S has always been the power of Type R, but with soft suspension. Honda/Acura has apparently decided the Civic is the only Type R we will get in North America anymore.

A total of 5 people will buy an Accord with a DCT.

[@jamisonkrusac1624]

While I really want an accord type r, the tlx type S is as close as we are going to get. Just get the accord 2.0t and put a type r turbo and flex fuel conversion on it. Oh, and actually good tires. Not the cheap oem ones.

[@zxmurph1]

I had two Fiesta STs, a '14 and '17 and absolutely loved them...nearly 200k miles of pure driving joy. 1000 miles in, the N has thankfully captured all of that joy, while just being a nicely upgraded vehicle overall for the dollar--- no "normal" people really know about the N, so when they asked "why?", I just say I was following Ford's US automotive business plan......all of that said, enjoy your ST---- I honestly wish I could stockpile them I love the car so much!

That on top of some pretty lackluster dealership experiences at a few Hyundai dealers in the area and my daily's transmission starting to give out made me go find something I could drive off the lot, and a fiesta st just so happened to fit the bill

Getting the car I want is what im looking forward to most post grad.

[@CaseyCollier]

I don't think it's really a smart move to buy a new car straight out of college. You should wait until you have a stable income and savings first. The market is crazy and car prices are at a record high (we're likely to go into a recession as well), so being responsible with your money is more important now than it's been in a while.

@@CaseyCollier I’m only a freshmen right now but i agree i plan on buying a fun car used. So by that time maybe a used 400z. Cars in general are bad investments but a point gotta live a little.

[@CaseyCollier]

@@maxbabineauxxx Even used cars are way above where they would have been a year or two ago, so my point still stands. I wish you good luck on buying that car though.

All hail the sport button! Sincerely, the fact that the Honda owned the launch and the race to 60mph in the dig race means that at legal speeds the Honda will usually be the faster car (only losing out in passing speed).

[@michaelwilburn1001]

​@name4754 You're unfamiliar with the N platform to make that statement. As far as simple tunes go the Elantra will always be ahead but anything you can go to the Accord can be done to the Elantra N. Gotta do a little research before making such claims

[@name4754]

@@michaelwilburn1001 You can make the accord push 600 hp, doubt you can do that on the N, but if its possible car wont last long

So not only is the sonata N line FINALLY faster than the accord but now the elantra is too. God I love Hyundai

[@swisschoco25]

When the new Integra drops we should see: 1) Elantra N vs Integra 2) Accord 2.0 vs Integra 3) Integra vs Si 3) Integra type S vs Civic type R We all know that Acura will release the Type S, its just a matter of when AND if it will be worth the money.

[@drivescene6747]

The Integra 1.5t will lose against everything you listed except the Si. The Type S will be around $45k and have around 280hp. Also, the Integra doesn’t compete with any of these vehicles you listed, it competes with the A3, 228i Gran Coupe and the CLA250/A220. If it can beat or equal those then it’s solid.

[@joemama7031]

Been waiting for this race and I didn't expect the Accord to hold up so well, looks like I need to get a tune on mine for when I see an Elantra N at a stop light 😂 Also anybody saying to race them on a track hasn't pushed their Accord hard in corners, I can't see the Accord holding up well at all. It just isn't meant to be pushed to its limits even if it handles pretty well for a big car

[@ctcdarkness]

@@christopherguzman6736yes you do 😂😂 the Elantra is lighter and makes more power 😂 it was a bad launch in this video. Multiple people have gotten into the 4 second range 0-60 with their Ns. Don’t sit here and lie to yourself.

@@ctcdarknessI have a stage 3 tuned accord that is supposed to put 300hp/350tq wonder if a stock Elantra N would still beat my accord. I want an N but it has to be faster than my tuned accord.

[@NGSMODE]

​@@LulzChicken Stock octane learned DCT N would put up a fight even against a 300 whp Accord (The reviewers in the vid did a poor job at pushing the Elantra N.) And even a small tune on a N would beat the 300 hp Accord. Even bigger gap in a 1/4th mi.

Amazingly, a family sedan, Honda Accord 2.0T Sport, kept up pretty well with the dedicated track compact, the Elantra N!

[@fahadnadir2403]

That makes the Accord amazing. Just a bit slower but it completely destroys Elantra in daily drivability, space and comfort.

Thanks guys. I have been looking at buying an Elantra N. The problem is I can’t even find one to test drive.

[@Teku175]

I've been looking to buy a car in this price range for a while now and at this point, I'm between the Elantra N and the Accord Sport 2.0T. It's interesting to see the Kona N but its styling just isn't for me. The i30 N, on the other hand, would be perfect but that isn't in the US. The only thing swaying me towards the Accord Sport 2.0T at this point are radar cruise control and the more comfortable ride. While the Elantra N is a REALLY cool car (and I do have a track not too far from me), 90% of all my commutes are highway driving. Also all I hear about Hyundai dealers and service are just horror stories, while my local Honda dealer has an amazing service department, which makes me a repeat customer for them. The only negative I see with the Accord is the lack of a (good) premium audio option on the Sport trim It needs a sub to fill in the lack of sub bass, and the premium audio in the Touring trim is "acceptable" at best (don't hate it at all but the tweeters are too harsh and the sub doesn't go low enough for my music tastes). That's my only gripe. Elantra is smaller than the Accord and the rear brace, while cool and functional, is in the way for the things I have to carry sometimes. Radar cruise (all my commutes are highways) and powered seats (share the car with family sometimes) are also missing on the Elantra N which is a letdown for me. As a daily, I'd go Accord 2.0T all day long so far, having test-driven both. It's the more mature car with enough performance to still surprise people. The accord feels like a highway bomber with enough pep to be fun and sporty enough suspension. The Elantra is amazing as a sports car, but living in Florida, it's all straight roads. For my needs, the Accord is better. If you're in another state with curvy roads, the Elantra is the way to go. Man, it's weird cross shopping an actual sports car with a midsize sedan that happens to be fast in a sport trim (2.0T is only available in Sport or Touring). What a weird time to be shopping for cars.

[@marshallgardner790]

I would love a comparison of the Elantra N and the new Golf R. I know the price points are different, but I'd like to see how the performance, livability, and interiors (and just overall enjoyment) stack up.

Golf r will absolutely destroy it…

@@randomvideos21015 performance-wise, no doubt. It would be more about how much better the performance would be composted with the price and the interior/style differences. Like is the R truly more enjoyable to live with?

[@ToddMurphyhealthy4life]

Yes. In the U.S the Accord 2.0 sport has gone up from a MSRP OF $31,800 in Apr of 2020. To an MSRP of $33,260 now in Apr 2022. And that HYUNDAI ELANTRA Is over $40k with T.T&L. Probably $42k. That's ridiculous. I'll take the Accord. Was the sales manager and then a finance manager at a local Honda dealership for 6 years. I'll stick with the Honda.
