After revising its model range, Hyundai Motor America came to the conclusion that the Elantra GT hatchback had to go due to its low sales. This includes the sported-up Elantra GT N Line.
The base spec shipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine rated at 163 hp (122 kW) and 203 Nm (150 lb-ft) of torque, which hooked onto a six-speed auto gearbox. It started from just $20,650 in the United States. The N Line packed a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbo worth 204 hp (150 kW) and 265 Nm (195 lb-ft) of torque. The transmission could be six-speed manual or seven-speed semi-auto, and prices began from $23,500.
The car used to be produced in the HMMA Factory in Alabama, USA and marketed as the American alternative to the Hyundai i30. Now, the main GT spec yields its place on the market to the Kona and Venue, while the GT N Line gets replaced by the regular Elantra N-Line Mk7. The seventh generation comes with no five-door body option, by the way.
