The Elantra N TCR Edition is powered by a robust 2.0L turbocharged engine. It delivers 276 horsepower and 289 lb-ft of torque, with up to 286 horsepower available on DCT models using N Grin Shift (NGS). Customers can opt for either an 8-speed Wet Dual-Clutch Transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission with downshift rev-matching.

This edition includes several enhancements inspired by Hyundai’s championship-winning TCR race cars. These include a Carbon Swan Neck Spoiler, "TCR Edition" trunk emblem, and N Performance Alcantara Steering Wheel with a 12 o’clock marker. The interior features Alcantara materials on various components like the parking brake lever and gear knob.

The Elantra N TCR Edition incorporates technologies from the existing Elantra N model. These include drive mode selection with N/Custom modes, an electronic limited slip differential, and electronically controlled suspension for improved cornering capabilities.

Canadian customers can choose from four exterior colours: Abyss Black, Atlas White, Cyber Grey, and Performance Blue. The pricing for the DCT version is set at $49,199 CAD.

Celebrating Hyundai's N Brand

To celebrate both the launch of this edition and the 10th anniversary of Hyundai’s global N Brand, Hyundai Canada will host an event in August at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Ontario. This event will bring together ten passionate N owners from across Canada's provinces to celebrate their shared enthusiasm.

"The N brand is not just about performance; it's about the passion for driving and the community that it creates," said Michael Ricciuto, director of product and corporate strategy at Hyundai Canada. "The 2026 Elantra N TCR Edition is a testament to our commitment to delivering track-level excitement for the everyday driving enthusiast."

Previous Celebrations

This upcoming event follows a previous celebration held in September 2024 at Hyundai Canada's headquarters. Over one hundred N owners gathered to share their passion and showcase their vehicles while experiencing the all-electric IONIQ 5 N.
