Performance isn’t explosive like electric cars, but it’s definitely fun. It comes with a 2.0T engine, front-wheel drive, 276 horsepower, and a dual-clutch transmission. There’s a slight delay when you first hit the gas, but then you get a powerful engine sound and a subtle crackle that really brings the driving experience to life. Compared to EVs, this one has character—EVs are fast, but soulless. It has a solid chassis: MacPherson struts in the front, multi-link suspension in the rear, and 19-inch Michelin wheels. The car feels very planted and handles the road well, even though it’s still comfortable enough for daily driving. I haven’t tested it on rough roads yet, though. On the street, it moves like a toy—just a slight turn of the steering wheel and it changes direction easily. The grip in corners, even at high speeds, is impressive. I actually started enjoying overtaking! The interior is similar to a regular Elantra, but the steering wheel has a sporty look, and the bucket seats are awesome—suede and leather with special stitching. No ventilation or electric adjustment here—it’s built for a pure sporty feel. The display is a bit small, and the font is tiny, but it’s packed with race-oriented features. Unfortunately, there’s no CarPlay support. Fuel consumption is about 13L/100 km, which is acceptable for a performance car. The tank is only 47 liters, which some people might find small. It runs on 92 octane, but for peak performance, 95 is better. The car is smart enough to adapt to the fuel quality over time. Notable Features: NFC car unlocking — supports Apple Watch and Samsung devices. If you leave your phone on the wireless charger, the screen reminds you. KRELL sound system with 8 speakers and an amplifier. Red button adds +10 horsepower for 20 seconds.

I test-drove the Hyundai Elantra N, and the driving experience is seriously fun thanks to its sporty suspension (MacPherson front and multi-link rear), 19-inch wheels, and PS4S tires. The grip is excellent, even during sharp cornering, especially with the electronic traction system. The interior is typical Elantra, but the sporty seats and design really boost the performance vibe. Even though it doesn’t support CarPlay, it’s packed with features focused on driving enjoyment. Fuel consumption is around 13L/100km, which is acceptable for a car with this much power, though the 47L fuel tank feels a bit small. It needs 95 octane fuel to perform at its best. Cool features include NFC unlocking, reminders if you forget your phone on the wireless charger, a KRELL sound system, and the red "N Grin Shift" button that gives you an extra 10 horsepower for 20 seconds.
