Hyundai has launched the Elantra N TCR Edition (badged as Avante N TCR in South Korea) – a performance sedan that takes inspiration from Hyundai Motorsports, specifically the brand’s involvement in Touring Car Racing (TCR).
The Elantra N TCR Edition “represents the wealth of experience” Hyundai has gained since it joined TCR World Tour in 2017. Following this ethos, numerous upgraded performance parts have been developed for the Elantra N TCR Edition. It features a lightweight carbon swan neck spoiler that is adjustable to provide optimal downforce settings for various driving conditions and preferences. The high-performance sedan also features rigid and lightweight 19in N TCR forged wheels with N Performance four-piston brakes as standard.
Inside, the cabin boasts TCR Edition decals (in South Korea only), a race-inspired Alcantara steering wheel with a performance blue top marker, performance blue seat belts and exclusive TCR Edition badging.
“Hyundai Motor has incorporated the experience and expertise accumulated in motorsports into Elantra N TCR Edition,” said Joon Park, vice president of N Brand Management Group. “We will continue to enhance the DNA of Hyundai N, so that N-thusiasts can experience the thrill of motorsports in their daily lives.”
Hyundai plans to launch Elantra N TCR Edition in South Korea in December, with availability in global markets next year.
