KEY TAKEAWAYS
Which N Line model was the recent addition to the carmaker's local lineup?
The recent N Line model to be added to HMPH's roster is the new Hyundai Creta N Line.What N Line models are offered by HMPH?
Aside from the Hyunda Creta N Line, the company is also offering the Elantra N Line.During the launch of the new Hyundai Creta, HMPH General Manager for Marketing Mark Parulan confirmed the possibility to Zigwheels Philippines.
To note, the company's newest model expanded its N Line offerings locally.
“Definitely, for products that are applicable for an N Line, we will try to always excite the market by bringing in a variant for that specific product,” the HMPH executive said in a chance interview.
No model was confirmed, nor was any timeline stated, but the next closest Hyundai N Line vehicle we could get would be for the Tucson crossover.
Hyundai Tuscon N Line
The locally available Hyundai Tucson got its latest update sometime last year, which saw the nameplate get a hybrid powertrain alongside its stablemate, the Santa Fe.
While it now sports a more economical power unit aimed at customers shifting to a more sustainable lifestyle, it could use some sporty elements to attract those who want a more spirited experience.
A quick look at Hyundai’s global website revealed that the company has an N Line model for the crossover.
Sold in Europe, here are its key features:
Exterior
- N Line-exclusive grille
- N Line-exclusive 19-inch alloy wheels
- Body-colored side moldings, wheel arches
- N Line spoiler
- N Line-exclusive single twin-tip muffler
Interior
- N Line-exclusive suede seats
- N Line emblem on steering wheel
- Red stitching on upholstery
- Red accents on dashboard
- Metal pedals
Powertrain
- 1.6 liter T-GDi Smartstream engine
- 72-kilowatt electric motor
- Plug-in hybrid system
- 248 horsepower
Other candidates
Looking at Hyundai’s global catalog, we were able to check out some possible candidates for HMPH’s future N Line offerings.
While we already have the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, which out of the factory comes as a track-ready machine, the N Line model would slot under it and above the standard version of the electric car.
It would be an ideal vehicle for those who want an eco-friendly daily driver with a sporty feel.
Should the local wing of the South Korean carmaker revive the discontinued Hyundai Kona, its N Line variant would also stir the lineup.
Likewise, if the Hyundai Sonata will make a comeback, its N Line trim would also be a welcome addition to the company’s local roster.
