Photo courtesy of Hyundai\nWhen it comes to performance these days, it’s all about the letters.\nWith BMW it’s M. Mercedes goes with AMG. Audi with RS. For Cadillac it’s V. And for Hyundai, it’s N.\nAfter a week spent fooling around with the flagship 276-hp turbocharged N-car, the\n2026 Hyundai Elantra N\n, you’d think the N stood for Nimble. Maybe Nippy. Definitely Nice.\nThe Elantra N boasts a turbocharged four-cylinder that cranks out 276 horseys and 289 torques. Photo courtesy of Hyundai\nIt actually stands for Namyang in South Korea, home to Hyundai’s global research and development center where the N-cars are developed.\nThat and Nurburgring, as in the challenging German race track where Hyundai has a tech center and uses the snaking 13-mile circuit to develop its N cars.\nHyundai first introduced its N brand way back in 2012, though it hasn’t exactly been flooding the market with models wearing that chicane-shaped N badge. Here in the United States, it started with the Veloster N two-door, then the Kona N crossover, with the first Elantra N arriving in 2021.\nThe optional 8-speed dual-clutch automatic rockets to 60 mph in around 5 seconds.

Even loaded to the roof, you won’t pay much more than $40,000.\nThe Elantra N has 19-inch forged alloy wheels and racy-red calipers.

That’s quick.\nThe added appeal of the automatic is the little red button on the steering wheel that Hyundai cutely names NGS, short for N Grin Shift. A quick tap gives you an extra 10 ponies for even zippier sprinting.\nAlas, our test Elantra N came with the standard six-speed manual gearbox which, for sports car lovers, might sound like a terrific feature.\nThe dashboard and steering wheel in the Elantra N.

Photo courtesy of Hyundai\nThat said, find yourself a two-lane backroad with a few curves and this old-school stick shift certainly adds to the feeling of control and involvement.\nAdd to that the Hyundai’s other performance attributes, like the kind of steering that’s as sharp as McDreamy’s scalpel. And the kind of tight suspension that eradicates any body roll and makes the Elantra handle like a slot car.\nYes, it makes for a firm, jittery ride that’s challenging over potholed back streets. But it’s in keeping with the N-car’s performance credentials. As, too, is the road roar from the standard Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubberware.\nThe Elantra N is a true four-seater with tons of legroom in the back. Photo courtesy of Hyundai\nBut the appeal here is that this fun-loving Hyundai will make every work-day commute, every school run, and every trip to the grocery store feel special.\nAnd of course the car looks like it’s just come off the race track. I love those sexy-black 19-inch forged alloy wheels and racy-red calipers, the red body add-ons, and air-gulping front bumper.\nInside it’s equally racy with a pair of front, body-hugging bucket seats, thick-rimmed steering wheel, and shiny metal pedals that could have come out of a BMW M5.\nThe Hyundai Elantra N’s sporty exterior. Photo courtesy of Hyundai\nThere’s also the real bonus of the Elantra N being a true four-seater with tons of legroom in the back so you can bring friends along for the fun.\nMake no mistake, this Elantra N is a blast on wheels, a thrill ride that won’t break the bank, a jolt of triple espresso after a lifetime of decaf.

Photo courtesy of Hyundai When it comes to performance these days, it’s all about the letters. With BMW it’s M. Mercedes goes with AMG. Audi with RS. For Cadillac it’s V. And for Hyundai, it’s N. After a week spent fooling around with the flagship 276-hp turbocharged N-car, the [2026 Hyundai Elantra N](https://www.hyundaiusa.com/us/en/vehicles/elantra-n), you’d think the N stood for Nimble. Maybe Nippy. Definitely Nice. ![The Elantra N boasts a turbocharged four-cylinder that cranks out 276 horseys and 289 torques.

Photo courtesy of Hyundai It actually stands for Namyang in South Korea, home to Hyundai’s global research and development center where the N-cars are developed. That and Nurburgring, as in the challenging German race track where Hyundai has a tech center and uses the snaking 13-mile circuit to develop its N cars. Hyundai first introduced its N brand way back in 2012, though it hasn’t exactly been flooding the market with models wearing that chicane-shaped N badge. Here in the United States, it started with the Veloster N two-door, then the Kona N crossover, with the first Elantra N arriving in 2021. ![The optional 8-speed dual-clutch automatic rockets to 60 mph in around 5 seconds.

Photo courtesy of Hyundai For me, it’s this latest Elantra N that makes the most compelling case for the appeal of Hyundai’s N performance brand. Here is a fun ‘n feisty performance four-door sedan with terrific performance, razor-sharp handling, killer brakes, and one of the rudest exhaust notes this side of a Ford Mustang. Yet what truly sets it apart is that the price of all this grin-inducing fun, all this road-going excitement starts at just \$36,345. Even loaded to the roof, you won’t pay much more than \$40,000. ![The Elantra N has 19-inch forged alloy wheels and racy-red calipers.
