- Hyundai has revealed the first photos of the refreshed 2024 Elantra N.
- It features the same new front end as the standard Elantra, but with some unique flourishes.
- We expect the updated Elantra to arrive in the U.S. later this year.
It was only a matter of time before the 2024 Hyundai Elantra’s new look ported over to the sporty N model, and now we have the first official photos of the performance-oriented Elantra with its refreshed front end. We’re still waiting on mechanical details, but we’re thinking the Elantra N will keep its powerful turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four and hopefully its choice between a manual and a dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The new look features the same slimmer headlight shape and revised grille up front, with the N-specific red trim and larger air intakes enhancing the aggressive stance. The “H” logo on the hood is now black, and there are two new 19-inch wheel options shown in these images: one black 10-spoke design and another silver five-spoke set with a circular motif. Hyundai hasn’t released any photos of the interior, but the Elantra N may offer some infotainment upgrades and new trim options.
The current Elantra N is powered by a 276-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four, and we don’t think that engine will change much for 2024. We’re hoping it’ll still offer a six-speed manual transmission as standard, with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic sticking around as an option.
Stay tuned for Hyundai to release more details on the 2024 Elantra N’s U.S. details and specs. It’ll likely go on sale on our shores later this year with a starting price a bit higher than the current model’s $34,015 entry fee.

Despite being raised on a steady diet of base-model Hondas and Toyotas—or perhaps because of it—Joey Capparella nonetheless cultivated an obsession for the automotive industry throughout his childhood in Nashville, Tennessee. He found a way to write about cars for the school newspaper during his college years at Rice University, which eventually led him to move to Ann Arbor, Michigan, for his first professional auto-writing gig at Automobile Magazine. He has been part of the Car and Driver team since 2016 and now lives in New York City.
