What are the engine specs and performance figures of the 2023 Hyundai Elantra N in Canada?
The 2023 Hyundai Elantra N is powered by the 2.0L Theta III turbocharged engine producing 276 hp and 289 lb-ft of torque, paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission with electronic rev-matching (iMT) or an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) featuring N Grin Shift (NGS), which briefly unleashes a 286 hp overboost for up to 20 seconds. The 0 to 100 km/h sprint takes approximately 5.3 seconds with the DCT, placing the Elantra N among the quickest compact sedans available in Canada at its price point. The 2023 model year introduces NGS on the DCT and standard electronic suspension control (ECS) -- both absent on 2022 models. Canadian MSRP starts at approximately $40,499 for the manual and $43,299 for the DCT. For a performance car delivering this level of hardware -- including sport seats with lateral bolstering, an electronic limited-slip differential (e-LSD), and optional Brembo N brakes -- all for under $45,000 including taxes in some provinces, the Elantra N 2023 represents exceptional performance value on the Canadian market.
