Hyundai Elantra N TCR Edition breaks cover

MANILA: Hyundai Motor Company has unveiled the Touring Car Racing (TCR) Edition of the Elantra N.

Called the Hyundai Avante N TCR Edition in South Korea, the high-performance sedan represents the wealth of experience Hyundai has gained since joining the TCR World Tour in 2017.

Unique appointments

Notable appointments include a lightweight, adjustable carbon swan neck spoiler — which can be moved to provide optimal downforce settings for various driving conditions and preferences.

It also gets highly rigid, lightweight 19-inch N TCR forged wheels equipped with N Performance four-piston brakes.

Some aesthetic features reflect its performance-oriented roots, which include a race-inspired Alcantara steering wheel with a Performance Blue top market, Blue seat belts, and exclusive TCR badging.

Customers looking to get their hands on the Hyundai Elantra N TCR Edition in Korea can expect to get additional appointments in the form of TCR Edition decals.

“Hyundai Motor has incorporated the experience and expertise accumulated in motorsports into ELANTRA N TCR Edition,” Hyundai N Brand Management Group Vice President Jon Park said.

“We will continue to enhance the DNA of Hyundai N, so that N-thusiasts can experience the thrill of motorsports in their daily lives,” he added.

Release date

The Hyundai Elantra N TCR Edition will be released in South Korea next month. Sales in other markets is expected to commence in 2025.
