Thanks to its aggressive styling and an exhaust that pops and bangs everytime you lift your foot from the throttle, the Hyundai Elantra N certainly stands out, even in its standard guise.

However, perhaps sensing that the high-performance sedan still has room for improvement, the Korean automaker has unveiled the Elantra N TCR Edition.

Inspired by the race cars competing in the TCR World Tour, the Elantra N TCR Edition comes with multiple upgraded performance parts.

The most notable addition is of course the carbon swan neck spoiler, which is adjustable to provide optimal downforce settings for various driving conditions and preferences.

On top of that, the Elantra N TCR Edition features lightweight 19-inch forged wheels that are highly rigid. Hidden behind these wheels is the Hyundai’s N Performance four-piston braking system.

For some reason, the TCR Edition’s striking blue, red, and white livery, with an oversized ‘N’, is exclusively available in the South Korean market.

Inside, the cabin boasts an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, adorned with a Performance Blue 12 o’clock marker, matching Performance Blue seat belts, and an exclusive TCR Edition badging.

The engine remains untouched. Like the standard version, the Elantra N TCR Edition delivers 280 PS and 392 Nm of torque from its 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine.

The Elantra N is offered with two transmission options: an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) and a six-speed manual. Official images released by Hyundai show the DCT variant, but it remains uncertain whether the manual option will be available for this special edition.

The Elantra N TCR Edition is set to launch in South Korea this December, with a global rollout anticipated next year.
