OTTAWA: The Canadian packaging for the 2026 Hyundai Elantra N TCR Edition has been confirmed, and it offers an unparalleled driving experience and road presence for N-thusiasts.
Inspired by Hyundai's dominant force in the Touring Car Racing (TCR) World Tour, the Elantra N TCR brings track-bred performance and design to Canada.
“N customers have reached the pinnacle of Hyundai performance, for them, the vehicles are not only a vessel for driving enthusiasm, but a form of self expression and creativity,” says Hyundai Auto Canada president and CEO Steve Flamand.
“We are inspired by the passion of over 5,000 ‘N-thusiasts’ in Canada and thrilled to offer the Elantra N TCR Edition which presents striking aesthetic details and performance enhancements – all representative of our proven success on the most challenging racetracks around the world.”
At the heart of the 2026 Elantra N TCR Edition lies the stock Elantra N’s potent 2.0L turbocharged engine, delivering 276hp and 392Nm of torque, with up to 286hp with N Grin Shift (NGS) on DCT models.
The drivetrain presents a significant choice for enthusiasts, offering either a lightning-fast, N 8-speed Wet Dual-Clutch Transmission (N-DCT) or Hyundai’s engaging, 6-speed manual transmission with downshift rev-matching.
The Elantra N TCR Edition features the following aesthetic and performance enhancements inspired by Hyundai’s championship winning TCR race cars:
- Carbon Swan Neck Spoiler

- N Performance Alcantara Steering Wheel with 12 o’clock marker

The Elantra N TCR Edition will also include several track-inspired technologies already available with the existing Elantra N, such as a drive mode selection with N/Custom modes, an electronic limited slip differential and an electronically controlled suspension for better cornering.
