Here at the 2019 Detroit Auto Show, we bid farewell to the awesome Elantra Sport.
You'll be missed, buddy.
Fortunately, we've got an awesome replacement.
Meet the 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT N Line.
Now the inline features a revised suspension and chassis from the previous generation.
The front flea bar's a little bit looser.
The rear sway bar is actually a little bit firmer and tighter.
Now if experience dictates, that's gonna make for some interesting tail-happy performance from this front wheel drive vehicle.
Now it also features stiffer engine and transmission mounts which should make the whole power train feel much more responsive.
Now, under the hood we're still working with the same 201 horsepower 1.6 liter turbo as last year.
But I've never really had a problem with that engine so I'm not super concerned.
Now, the N-Line will eventually expand to other Hyundai models and slot somewhere in between the standard models and the hardcore N models like the Veloster N.
Expect this particular N line model to go on sale later this year for around $24,000 with a six speed manual, around $25k with the seven speed DCT.
Be sure to check out the rest of our coverage of the 2019 Detroit Auto Show for even more cool unveils like this, and if you're looking for something a little bit more hardcore may I suggest the Hyundai Veloster N TCR, you're definitely gonna want to see that.
