With the completely redesigned 2021 Hyundai Elantra sedan, the Korean automotive firm is giving it a model new effectivity focus. It’s starting with an N Line turbo model this 12 months, and based totally fully on these spy photos, there’s a full-fledged N coming after. Even with the camouflage, we’re capable of see every seen and mechanical upgrades worthy of an N automotive.
The most blatant seen distinctions on this Elantra N are on the as shortly as further. The first is that rear wing that’s every a bit big, nonetheless along with fairly tasteful. Interestingly, the wing is missing a signature N design cue: a triangular center-high-mount brake delicate. A particular N signature is seen beneath the wing: two big exhaust decisions. Other seen modifications to this Elantra embrace a revised rear diffuser design and big side skirts. The nostril is largest camouflaged, and we can’t be going to make out any distinctive decisions. It does have the N Line’s additional open and aggressive grille, though.
Besides the additional aggressive styling, this Elantra moreover reveals its big brakes. They’re housed by the 19-inch wheels from the Veloster N with the Performance Package. We wouldn’t be shocked if these brakes are the an related 13.6-inch entrance and 12.4-inch rear brakes ensuing from Veloster N.
The big question we now have acquired is what shall be beneath the hood. Whatever it’d get will seemingly be shared with the Veloster N, which presently will get a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder making between 250 and 275 horsepower, counting on trim diploma. But rumor has it that the Veloster N shall be getting a robust elevated 2.5-liter turbocharged engine. Just such a turbocharged 2.5-liter goes to be contained all by the elevated Sonata N Line and would possibly make 290 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. The engine will practically undoubtedly be obtainable with each a six-speed information or eight-speed dual-clutch automated. It will vitality the doorway wheels and an electronically-controlled limited-slip differential have to be obtainable.
It furthermore have to be good pleasing, and we’re wanting forward to lastly driving it. This prototype appears to be fairly far alongside, so we’re anticipating a reveal inside a 12 months, and an on-sale date in time for the 2022 model 12 months.
