Is the 2024 Hyundai Elantra N-Line a BETTER new sport sedan than a Honda Civic Si?

FIRST DRIVE: The Elantra is getting some BIG changes for 2024 from Hyundai. On the outside of the N-Line you will discover new led lighting, front fascia, badging and wheels. On the inside you will be welcomed by sport seats, (2) 10.25in screens and a large drive mode selector button. Under the hood is a 1.6L turbocharged inline-4 that pumps out 201HP & is mated to a 7-speed DCT. Is the 2024 Hyundai Elantra N-Line a BETTER new sport sedan than a Honda Civic Si?

The day isn’t complete without a post from the raiti’s

The front looks way better now. This refresh means business... Better than the Si

Wheels look nice as well

Loving the new Hyundai Elantra N-Line & even though it looks cool on the outside I feel like the interior should be a little bit nicer but, it's not meant to be a luxury car, it's supposed to be sporty.

I have a 2023 N-Line i bought brand new and have absolutely loved it. Just hit 25k miles. Stock for stock I can confirm it's quicker than the SI. The DCT is a little jerky in traffic but you learn to drive around it in a way. Really like the new face lift look, it almost looks like the previous gen Elantra N now 😅.

[astrojack]

As someone who has the same blue N line but 2023, I love the improvements they’ve added and features they added along side the exterior facelift I totally recommend this car(am going for the 2024 N tho🤪).

was a honda boy since high school. Not going to lie I would choose the 7speed DCT elentra over an Civic Si as a daily. Not to mentione this face lift on the N line look really good.

Cheap thrills. Nothing wrong with that at this price point. Looks good and has good features for the money too. Thanks for taking the time to review affordable cars for us, Joe.

Picked up the 2024 Sonata N line and love it 🎉 good tech, good looking and good power… doing a bunch of upgrades on my channel

[ranthony]

Looks good. The only things i would change is the addition of an lsd, soft touch material at the top of the door panel and a cushioned arm rest on the doors.

I got to test drive a '23 ELantra N-Line when I went to get my Kona N-Line and I almost got that instead. It's super sporty. Anyone who gets this I feel is going to have a great time.

Man, that Drive Mode button. Adds to the cheap factor. Should be on the steering wheel. And Hyundai needs to start putting their fingerprint scanners for other countries on the center console or something, so we don’t get the leftover, stupid blank spaces on the dash here in the States. At least on some vehicles it’s magnetized to provide some purpose.

Just bought one and am very happy with it. Very good for our family needs and can use those paddels to have some fun.

[davidp]

Love the color, I'd go with different wheels if possible. Not necessarily shiny chrome, but something other than black.

[donteadoss]

Dope spec … and love it even more in the Exotic Green color 🔥

[tomdrummy]

I’m either the 3rd or the 37th 😁. Thanks Joe !! 👋

[karmahunden]

Some feedback on the new POV Drive style. I think the 0.5x zoom out if a bit distorted. Try bringing it closer to a 1x so that we can truly see POV. We dont need to see 180 degrees of car all of the time. Just my two cents.

[getthecash]

Clean bold design, with the snappy performance to match. Balaced, sharp, and not just the look of it. Glad to see an auto maker not afraid to carve out a spot on lower-budget tier, yet be a prize to their owners nevertheless.

[rgames]

Finally. I love that you could fine one to review Joe. I still say this is the best bang for your buck performants at $30K. BUT if you can pay a couple more thousand you can get the outstanding GTI. I did.

[derekbenoit]

For the price I think the new version looks amazing! Had the Sonata N-line and absolutely loved it. Great job Hyundai.

[dominickirkwood]

Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
