2019 Hyundai Elantra GT N Line
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Jan. 14, 2019 – Complementing the performance of Elantra GT is the
announcement of the new 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT N Line trim. Elantra GT N Line is the first N
Line model for the United States from Hyundai. N Line trims add sporty design elements and
refined powertrain/chassis upgrades to existing Hyundai products. N Line is part of Hyundai’s ‘N’
product portfolio that includes the brand’s growing ultimate ‘N’ range of vehicles (Veloster N, i30 N,
i30 Fastback N). The 2019 Elantra GT N Line replaces the 2018 Elantra GT Sport and signals
more N Line models to come on future Hyundai products. Elantra GT N Line and the 2019 Elantra
GT are on sale now.
The 2019 Elantra GT continues to bring increased utility and enhanced driving dynamics to
the compact hatchback segment. Elantra GT and the new N Line trim are poised to compete head-
on with hatchback competitors and provide a fun-to-drive alternative to small CUVs. Elantra GT is
the best of both worlds.

“Hyundai N models satisfy the needs of performance-oriented enthusiasts with exclusive,
custom-tuned powertrain and chassis applications,” said Thomas Schemera, executive vice
president, Hyundai Motor Group’s Product Planning & Strategy Division.” “N Line is designed for
those buyers craving N’s sporty styling cues coupled with performance-tuned suspension
upgrades, all at compelling price points.”

Design Elements
The Elantra GT N Line takes eye-catching design elements directly from the i30 N. At the
front, the Elantra GT N Line has a lower front spoiler for increased aerodynamic efficiency and a
unique N Line version of Hyundai’s Cascading Grille with a distinctive silver character line. At the
side, blacked out side mirrors with turn signals, N Line badging, N Line 18-inch wheels and
Michelin Pilot Sport 4 225/40 R18 summer tires change the profile of the car (summer tires are only
available with the manual transmission). At the rear, the unique bumper fascia further accentuates
the N theme.
Standard interior trim for the Elantra GT N Line includes:
Unique leather-wrapped perforated N steering wheel with metallic spokes N Line leather sport seats with N logo N Line gearshift features sporty metal accents and leather inserts A sporty instrument cluster and instrument panel accents Red stitching and accents differentiate the N Line from the standard Elantra GT

Line duty with new suspension and steering tuning, revised powertrain mounts and summer tires.
