Hyundai fully revealed the new Elantra N 2022 on the day from yesterday. This sedan, promised since last month through a brief statement and some referential images, represents the new generation of this family that saw the light at the beginning of the decade of the 90, with the creation of the first Elantra. This new installment, however, is a tribute to versatility: based on the model 2022, it combines the practicality of a small car with the sportiness of a race car. To achieve this, the brand made some small improvements in the exterior appearance with the intention of making it look much lower than its predecessor, also much more aggressive. This slight change is completed by 19 inch wheels fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. and high-friction brakes with state-of-the-art cooling system, to give the driver greater control of the car at high speeds.
