10th Anniversary Celebration in Canada

To celebrate the launch of the Elantra N TCR Edition and mark the 10th anniversary of Hyundai’s global N Brand, Hyundai Canada will be hosting a special event in August at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, in Ontario. The event will unite 10 passionate N owners from the 10 Canadian provinces, reflecting the strength and diversity of Canada’s vibrant N community. Members of the media will also be invited to join the festivities, experiencing first-hand the energetic spirit of N and the adrenaline of the Elantra N TCR Edition.

“The N brand is not just about performance, it’s about the passion for driving and the community that it creates,” said Michael Ricciuto, director of product and corporate strategy at Hyundai Canada. “The 2026 Elantra N TCR Edition is a testament to our commitment to delivering track-level excitement for the everyday driving enthusiast. We are incredibly proud of the vibrant N community in Canada and are thrilled to celebrate this milestone with them.”

This initiative is a follow-up of a previous Canadian N celebration, hosted at Hyundai Canada’s headquarters in September of 2024. That day, more than one hundred N owners gathered at the Hyundai Auto Canada head office to share their passion and showcase their vehicles. They also had the opportunity to experience the all-electric IONIQ 5 N.
