It's probably because I own it but honestly I still like the front end of mine more. Part of the reason why I bought it is that I like having a more unique car. One that looks different and that most people don't have. New one still looks good but I'm happy with mine.

Im at 50k in my 22 EN DCT and no problems at all, it's my daily driver. Amazing machine. Theyre literally baby BMW M performance cars or a poor mans M car.
This Hyundai Elantra N vehicle is incredible for the price! Electronic controlled suspension, exhaust valve, drive modes, NGS overboost button, N mode, Wet DCT, incredible handling and that exhaust system pops n bangs! Don't sleep on this car! Drive it! 🚗💨👍
I bought a 22 veloster N last month and have been loving every minute of driving it. These cars are an absolute steal at their price points, and are punching way above their weight towards $50,000 cars as far as performance goes.
@drumflip1253 These cars are just so enjoyable and have a "raw" feeling to them that I haven't felt in any other car before. Glad you like yours, enjoy!
True that i have a 2019 VN Performance (couple mods: cai, intercooler, bov) and smoked some cocky guy in an Audi S3 earlier today. dude got me on the dig (i was spinning and hopping on launch) then he laughed and said "ill give you a 20 if you want" his mistake put 3 cars on a 50k car lmao
36K price bump but you get the cleaner and meaner cyber punk look with new forged 19 wheels. Not to mention reinforced engine mount membrane, new G bushing reinforcement and revised steering gearbox yoke spec for better steering, retuned ECS, new urethane ABS insulator on the rear suspension support, improving damping, and other upgrades. US spec might not get the adaptive cruise control or rear vents or cooling seats but why would you even want that on a vehicle like this?
@@boogiedownkid5465 actually 5+ years ago there was no elantra N anywhere, it wasn't even revealed, there was elantra sport .. elantra n was released early 2021 and veloster n was released in 2019 .. you're the ignorant actually
I bought my 2023 6-speed also in white back in May 2023. I now have 1,453 miles on it. I barely drive it, it's just a toy for me. I LOVE the car. I will admit that the front end on the 2024 is slightly nicer. The headlights are cool, and the bit of reduction of all the black would also be nice. However, that's literally the extent of it. I HATE black wheels, though I understand that you can get the current wheels ?? I also don't like the back-end. It was fine the way it was. They increased the painted portions on front only to add them to the back? Seems weird. Finally, there are literally no interior updates. No one has ever been in the back seat of my car so charging ports or vents are useless. It's not worth an "upgrade" to me since they didn't change anything.
Styling? Yes. More importantly, they focused on little areas that make a big difference. For example, the material used for the bushings and engine mounts, and designing them better this version. The results are improved ride quality, and power transfer through the drivetrain (wheel hop).
$32,900 for the 2023 to $36,000 for the 2024 is a bigger price increase than I expected. Kind of disappointing that that will price out a lot of potential buyers for whom a $32k car was already a reach.

I watched a video earlier of upcoming future EV vehicles from Toyota. One of their models has the same Z lines as the Elantra. So, take that as you may. I’m also loving the new 2024 refresh look.

I love the Elantra N. This thing pulls, so it's not a big deal that the 2.0 powerplant is less than 300hp. The 2024 N looks cool - big improvement over the 2023. I just bought my 10-year car, a 2023 GRC Circuit. Pretty sure, I'd be just as happy with the Elantra N. I test drove a 23 top spec Kona earlier this year with a DCT. That's a nice little car for $30k. Hyundai is bringing the competition to the table. Wow!
@karmahunden The Kona didn't have a stick, which I'd prefer. The DCT felt hesitant for a split second when you stepped on the accelerator. When I test drove the Kona - in Joplin, MO while my tractor was in the shop for a new head gasket - it was wet out. I didn’t drive the car as aggressively as I wanted. I was impressed with the leather seats and the fancy rims. I thought it was a handsome little car, plus the dealership was fair with pricing. I would have gotten a good deal. My GRC Circuut is awesome! I like the much maligned interior, and the nanny electronics are worthwhile. With 1k miles, I haven't red lined the GRC yet - but I will, soon. The GRC has good power and a unique look. My GRC replaces my 2014 Corolla L with a stick and also a 2004 Boxster S.
I went to LA auto show yesterday. I came back with ephipany on how good the interior trims were with the Elantra N with the price tag. As a daily, this makes way better sense than Type R, Type S, and even better interior than Supra's. As a daily performance car to buy, there's nothing like this and I am heading to the Hyundai dealership when the facelife models are delivered.
I was ready to jump in on the N, and found out the new model got refreshed and improved.. but now I am dreading waiting for the 24 to become available in the States
I don't mind either body, i prefer my 22 EN, 24 does look more mature, but i don't like the rear bumper as much, however the 24 rims are forged and black which is much nicer. I really did my research before i settled on the N, all i was looking for was 4 doors and stick, other cars in the running was type-r, si, GR, wrx, gti and golf r, all great cars. But in the end i couldn't get over the fun and value of the EN. I ended up paying 37,700 CDN and in canada the stick comes with moonroof and heated steering wheel. Been very happy with it for just over 2 years now.
It would've been truly awesome if they made this AWD and incorporated some of the newer dual motor electric hybrid powertrains for a 300+ HP output trim.
If he was able to turn on the engine and drive, you will see the line at the center of the dash change color along with the speedometer based off how hard you rev. It changes from blue, purple, to red based off your rpm which looks INSANE at night time ❤️
For the price this car is killing it. I really like the CTR and ITS but they are much more expensive and marked up. This is at a great price range and it looks amazing.
@@huehuehue-x3c Obviously but with markup they can be twice as expensive. The ITS would be my dream car and at MSRP would be right around my budget. But the markups in my area are horrendous.
@@huehuehue-x3cgo view savagegeese channel’s civic type r vs elantra n, golf r, gr corolla with same exact tires and same race car driver. Elantra n came in 2nd place with 0.1-0.2 secs slower in the lap course vs the type r and beat the gr corolla, golf r and wrx sti. Not to mention n has an equal to 0-60 and quarter mile to civic type r and dual clutch version is actually faster than the type r in 0-60. So tell me how exactly is ctr or its way faster? Stop dreaming and let the real driving comparison numbers talk.
@@GSTRification that track has barely any space for the ctr to utilize its power, it’s a little club course. On larger tracks and on the street (where these cars get used 99.99999% of the time) the ctr absolutely dominates the korean shitbox.
@@huehuehue-x3cyes i will take your no experience driving both cars back to back word over every youtube reviewers praising how good and close elantra n’s performance is to the type r. And 3 of them own the type r. Finally we’re not even considering $15k real world price difference between the two over 2% performance difference. Put your word where your mouth is any buy ctr at over $50k. I appreciate the type r for what it is but blindly calling trash this and that without any knowledge or logic doesn’t contribute anything useful
I may be the odd man out for the front face "squish" you could call it xD I preferred the 2023 version more. I do love the new DTRs and LED head lights design but I'm not a fan of the matte black plastic nose. IMO they shouldve brought the 2024 non-N elantra's front shape to this too. The front split that is a red skirt looks awesome as always as does the back trunk lid spoiler and dual exhaust setup :D
The front end looks a lot better to me. That black plastic bar really helps the car to actually have a front end😅😅 The old front end just looks too stretched and such I guess is the word. The headlights being sleeker are nice with the front end. I play a ton of Forza and it’s about as close as I will get to real life driving (Cerebral Palsy as my disability makes real life driving a distant dream). We are getting the Kona N and I30N the hatchback in Forza as we don’t get here in the U.S. in the real world 😢 I know there are hand controls for disabled drivers but that’s not going to be covered via insurance I’d imagine. That and even if I knew anyone with an adapted car they’d have to trust me with their car and supervise in something such as an empty parking lot😅❤
I love what they did with the new front end looks way sharper and more cohesive. I just wish they changed the rear wing, was never really a fan of it. Overall a nice refresh and tempting as my next car
Much better deal than the Type R or Type S, you don't get what you pay for with those cars, you could get Supra or M240i for that money. The N costs what a high performance 4 banger should cost and looks more aggressive than the Type R and has a DCT option, when I switched from manual transmission in my GTI to one with DSG I don't want to go back to manual, because you get the best of both worlds with that transmission and it can handle more power than the manual without upgrading the clutch.
Pretty hard to beat the 2024 Elantra N's 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and it still gets 31mpg on the highway. Elantra Hybrid is the real winner 0-60 in 8.4 seconds which is not slow and it gets 52mpg city and 56mpg on the highway.
Personally the lack of rear air vents is what's holding me back from considering this car. Everything else looks great, but I don't understand why that little bit of extra daily usability isn't offered.
@@andrewthach1989 Where I live (coastal Texas), having rear AC is really nice for passengers to have in hot summers and even cold winters in some parts around here. Everything else about the car is a home run for me, it's just this one little thing.
The Civic Type R is nicer, but it is WAAAY more expensive. This competes more with the Civic Si on price and I'd take the Elantra N over the Civic Si. I prefer the manual seats as 1, it's lighter, 2. Less chance of breaking or electrical issues and 3. no uncesessary costs so funds are re-routed to performance. (Ditto for Brembo brakes and some of the materials - they need to keep costs in check for all of the performance upgrades that are provided. Otherwise, this eclipses $40k) Great review!
Hey Joe, I really think the 2024 version is much cleaner up front. Still zonking the Hyundai Death Star though. But Im dying to see the 2024 Sonata N Line!
Hey Joe!! Good seeing you here on this pre-Thanksgiving, man. You and Lori on that awesome camera ;). This revised Elantra N looks AWESOME and badass, esp in this white. Captures the side sculpting real nice, man. To say my tubesocked stocking perpetual JV baseball jock feet are knocked clean outta my super floppy DC sneakers is a turkey and giblet gravy understatement, man lol 🤣. God bless you there, Joey Raiti, and thanks for all the automotive inspiration. JV Johnny ⚾⚾
No idea if youve been seeing my comments but if you have then I think you know how excited ive been for this car lol. Cannot wait for when you can drive it
I like the new front end, the rest I could do without. I test drove one and was disappointed with the interior quality that I didn't post the review I made on it. Looks better in black, it hides some of the design flaws.
Honestly all it’s missing for me is a HUD, that to me would make it the ultimate car with all the features I want. Also I saw on the Korean models they have a camera pop up when hitting turn signals I wonder if we’ll be getting that.
I'm the former owner of a '22 N with the manual. The wife and I decided to let it go for financial reasons. My main gripe with the car was that it didn't feel particularly well-built. Also the shifter feel was mediocre at best, though I did love the rev-match feature. Anyway, said complaints wouldn't stop me from acquiring another one. It's just that freakin' awesome. Wish the Hyundai people would update the 2024 N configurator soon.
I'm a Honda fan, but bang for buck, it's hard to top this package. Exterior styling, interior styling and ergonomics, performance, technology, ride, warranty - from top to bottom, it's really well laid out. At the same price, I don't think anything comes close. I'd take mine in performance blue...looks amazing.
I'm just here wondering when the heck will this be released?? Why is there a delay still? I tried searching for any news on that and the Internet has nothing! What's going on over at Hyundai Joe?
I like the interior. Love the fact that it is sorta plain Jane. Dont like things being too busy especially in a family sport sedan. Its not a race car. 👌🏾 Although, I would've preferred the center arm rest in the rear along with heat /cooling vents.
For the price its a great car, most of the performance sits in the useable part of the vehicle spectrum, where more powerful and pricier cars will never allow you, on a daily basis, to push the hard edges of the car. Check out the video for common problems with these, there are about a dozen that pop up from time to time.
I’m glad they kept the mechanical Parking brake i heard rumors they were swapping it for an EPB setup. Also I can confirm my passengers hate the back seats 😂
Same deal with the palisade night edition. Gets silver lug nuts though everyone's going to opt for the optional black ones which hopefully would be an option here too.
You know I can totally see this all new 2024 Hyundai Elantra N becoming a starfighter version of the Winnebago on a new Spaceballs movie, if it ever comes out.
I like everything in term of the exterior but the interior needs a lot of work. First electric seats would have been a game changer for me especially if you can raise the seat and lower it. Second the back has nothing to rest your arm on plus the panorama isnt a panorama, I wouldve loved if it was all way glass. In term of price it is great appearance & performance all great. I hope they at least provide a more expensive versions in the future with more options.
Which body you prefer 2023 or 2024?

If he was able to turn on the engine and drive, you will see the line at the center of the dash change color along with the speedometer based off how hard you rev. It changes from blue, purple, to red based off your rpm which looks INSANE at night time ❤️
That is really cool! Thanks for sharing that!
For the price this car is killing it. I really like the CTR and ITS but they are much more expensive and marked up. This is at a great price range and it looks amazing.
The CTR and ITS are much, much faster and better built than this car though.
@@huehuehue-x3c Obviously but with markup they can be twice as expensive. The ITS would be my dream car and at MSRP would be right around my budget. But the markups in my area are horrendous.
@@huehuehue-x3cgo view savagegeese channel’s civic type r vs elantra n, golf r, gr corolla with same exact tires and same race car driver. Elantra n came in 2nd place with 0.1-0.2 secs slower in the lap course vs the type r and beat the gr corolla, golf r and wrx sti. Not to mention n has an equal to 0-60 and quarter mile to civic type r and dual clutch version is actually faster than the type r in 0-60. So tell me how exactly is ctr or its way faster? Stop dreaming and let the real driving comparison numbers talk.
@@GSTRification that track has barely any space for the ctr to utilize its power, it’s a little club course. On larger tracks and on the street (where these cars get used 99.99999% of the time) the ctr absolutely dominates the korean shitbox.
@@huehuehue-x3cyes i will take your no experience driving both cars back to back word over every youtube reviewers praising how good and close elantra n’s performance is to the type r. And 3 of them own the type r. Finally we’re not even considering $15k real world price difference between the two over 2% performance difference. Put your word where your mouth is any buy ctr at over $50k. I appreciate the type r for what it is but blindly calling trash this and that without any knowledge or logic doesn’t contribute anything useful
2:25 that guy on the left definitely said Damn that’s nice 💯
I may be the odd man out for the front face "squish" you could call it xD I preferred the 2023 version more. I do love the new DTRs and LED head lights design but I'm not a fan of the matte black plastic nose. IMO they shouldve brought the 2024 non-N elantra's front shape to this too. The front split that is a red skirt looks awesome as always as does the back trunk lid spoiler and dual exhaust setup :D
Thank You Raitis Fam. Been waiting on this 🔥🔥
I am so glad that I can bring it to you!
Thank you for sharing and your APPRECIATION to the subscribers Raiti
Gotta love the new Hyundai Elantra Look I’m loving tho new LED headlights Can’t Wait to get this Fire Car
The front end looks a lot better to me. That black plastic bar really helps the car to actually have a front end😅😅
The old front end just looks too stretched and such I guess is the word.
The headlights being sleeker are nice with the front end.
I play a ton of Forza and it’s about as close as I will get to real life driving (Cerebral Palsy as my disability makes real life driving a distant dream).
We are getting the Kona N and I30N the hatchback in Forza as we don’t get here in the U.S. in the real world 😢
I know there are hand controls for disabled drivers but that’s not going to be covered via insurance I’d imagine.
That and even if I knew anyone with an adapted car they’d have to trust me with their car and supervise in something such as an empty parking lot😅❤
I love what they did with the new front end looks way sharper and more cohesive. I just wish they changed the rear wing, was never really a fan of it. Overall a nice refresh and tempting as my next car
They really made the front look a lot better... and I have a 2022 one.
Love the front end…..and the wheels
I’m glad that you are liking this one Tom
Much better deal than the Type R or Type S, you don't get what you pay for with those cars, you could get Supra or M240i for that money. The N costs what a high performance 4 banger should cost and looks more aggressive than the Type R and has a DCT option, when I switched from manual transmission in my GTI to one with DSG I don't want to go back to manual, because you get the best of both worlds with that transmission and it can handle more power than the manual without upgrading the clutch.
I love it. The silver wheel bolts work better than having black bolts. I want one for open road racing. Triple
Pretty hard to beat the 2024 Elantra N's 0-60 in 4.8 seconds and it still gets 31mpg on the highway. Elantra Hybrid is the real winner 0-60 in 8.4 seconds which is not slow and it gets 52mpg city and 56mpg on the highway.
The middle finger for Type R
Before you were about to say Brembo, I was thinking that as well. But this is a beautiful car!
Personally the lack of rear air vents is what's holding me back from considering this car. Everything else looks great, but I don't understand why that little bit of extra daily usability isn't offered.
U can buy the part for rear vents from Korea and install it yourself for a couple hundred. It’s fairly easy to do
Really? That's what's holding you back? lmao
Yeah, I prefer having some accommodations for rear passengers as well as the performance aspect.@@Roflcakes88
Something that minor holding you back? You're goofy
@@andrewthach1989 Where I live (coastal Texas), having rear AC is really nice for passengers to have in hot summers and even cold winters in some parts around here. Everything else about the car is a home run for me, it's just this one little thing.
love how this one is shown off but yet again never seen it at the dealer
The Civic Type R is nicer, but it is WAAAY more expensive. This competes more with the Civic Si on price and I'd take the Elantra N over the Civic Si. I prefer the manual seats as 1, it's lighter, 2. Less chance of breaking or electrical issues and 3. no uncesessary costs so funds are re-routed to performance. (Ditto for Brembo brakes and some of the materials - they need to keep costs in check for all of the performance upgrades that are provided. Otherwise, this eclipses $40k) Great review!
Spot on the money Alex!
Looks nice!
Hey Joe, I really think the 2024 version is much cleaner up front. Still zonking the Hyundai Death Star though. But Im dying to see the 2024 Sonata N Line!
Stay tuned!
@@RaitisRides Yes sir!
@@DarkJediChrisG-1425oh yeah
Remember Raiti, the Type R is a $60k car, not $44k. You continue to reflect the markups when cost comparing.
Get with the times man. $5k markup is easy to get now. Making it, with your logic, a $49k car.
@@SIIKAP1ok but you're forgetting about interest rates which are avg 6-8% these days... get with the times
@@anthonyscott5484 Interest rates will affect either car purchase here…. making your argument null.
@@SIIKAP1 sure bro😂 acting like they don't affect anything
@@anthonyscott5484 interest rates will be the same or similar for an R or N. We are only comparing the base price of each.
Still no vents in the back seat. The Asian version has vents in the back. Thanks for the video.
Hey Joe!! Good seeing you here on this pre-Thanksgiving, man. You and Lori on that awesome camera ;). This revised Elantra N looks AWESOME and badass, esp in this white. Captures the side sculpting real nice, man. To say my tubesocked stocking perpetual JV baseball jock feet are knocked clean outta my super floppy DC sneakers is a turkey and giblet gravy understatement, man lol 🤣. God bless you there, Joey Raiti, and thanks for all the automotive inspiration. JV Johnny ⚾⚾
I didn't mind the previous front end...actually liked it. This one is nice too...
It would be nice to see a side by side!
I like everything except that I can’t get a manual and a sunroof 🤔
Fun and informative. Thanks.
You are so very welcome Eleah.
man i love the front end now the previous n looked better in black but this new front end man i deff wanting one the previous one was amazing value
No idea if youve been seeing my comments but if you have then I think you know how excited ive been for this car lol. Cannot wait for when you can drive it
Joe and Lori keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true 💯👍
I am not a Hyundai fan but that is a sexy looking car. Nice design.
I like the new front end, the rest I could do without. I test drove one and was disappointed with the interior quality that I didn't post the review I made on it. Looks better in black, it hides some of the design flaws.
That glass area to the left of the gauge cluster with the minus symbol is functional, you can place a phone holder or your tuner modules
Honestly all it’s missing for me is a HUD, that to me would make it the ultimate car with all the features I want. Also I saw on the Korean models they have a camera pop up when hitting turn signals I wonder if we’ll be getting that.
Possibly because of glare on track
The Death Star on the left side of the dash will be a fingerprint reader to start the car without your keys.
That's false SMH
I'm the former owner of a '22 N with the manual. The wife and I decided to let it go for financial reasons. My main gripe with the car was that it didn't feel particularly well-built. Also the shifter feel was mediocre at best, though I did love the rev-match feature. Anyway, said complaints wouldn't stop me from acquiring another one. It's just that freakin' awesome. Wish the Hyundai people would update the 2024 N configurator soon.
Thanks for your ownership input!
I'm a Honda fan, but bang for buck, it's hard to top this package. Exterior styling, interior styling and ergonomics, performance, technology, ride, warranty - from top to bottom, it's really well laid out. At the same price, I don't think anything comes close. I'd take mine in performance blue...looks amazing.
I know exactly how you feel!
I'm just here wondering when the heck will this be released?? Why is there a delay still? I tried searching for any news on that and the Internet has nothing! What's going on over at Hyundai Joe?
I just can’t understand how these seats are this clean
I love the way it looks very nice 👍
I like the interior. Love the fact that it is sorta plain Jane. Dont like things being too busy especially in a family sport sedan. Its not a race car. 👌🏾 Although, I would've preferred the center arm rest in the rear along with heat /cooling vents.
Oh trust me when I say, if you want it to be a race car, it can be a race car lol
@@MrSpacely42 lol I mean I guess… its never gonna be able to keep up with the big boy v8s
If I could trust the engine not taking a piss on me so soon I’d absolutely love one of these
For the price its a great car, most of the performance sits in the useable part of the vehicle spectrum, where more powerful and pricier cars will never allow you, on a daily basis, to push the hard edges of the car. Check out the video for common problems with these, there are about a dozen that pop up from time to time.
just order one, hope it’s that you said and stable quality
We need the behind the wheel video on this car ASAP please and thank you!
I’m glad they kept the mechanical Parking brake i heard rumors they were swapping it for an EPB setup. Also I can confirm my passengers hate the back seats 😂
Amazing walk around my man I loved it! Can’t wait for them to be on the lot. Sonata N Line didn’t last that long!
Do you think the Elantra N is next to release? I can’t wait
If the add soft armrest with blue stitching for all four doors and all blue seatbelts I might buy one
Same deal with the palisade night edition. Gets silver lug nuts though everyone's going to opt for the optional black ones which hopefully would be an option here too.
You know I can totally see this all new 2024 Hyundai Elantra N becoming a starfighter version of the Winnebago on a new Spaceballs movie, if it ever comes out.
I like everything in term of the exterior but the interior needs a lot of work. First electric seats would have been a game changer for me especially if you can raise the seat and lower it.
Second the back has nothing to rest your arm on plus the panorama isnt a panorama, I wouldve loved if it was all way glass.
In term of price it is great appearance & performance all great. I hope they at least provide a more expensive versions in the future with more options.
The Korean model have auto hold and 360 cam -_- if they’re going to ask for more money then those features should be included
I haul brand new cars and just dropped one just like that off and I'm telling you they are nice
Oh wow! I can not wait to go ON THROTTLE in one.
