Hyundai recently made the exciting announcement that the highly anticipated Ioniq 5 N electric vehicle will soon be hitting the market. The company revealed that the Ioniq 5 N will be available for purchase at approved retailers starting in March. In addition to this exciting release date news, Hyundai also officially unveiled the Ioniq 5 N to US-based consumers at AutoMobility LA, generating even more buzz around the upcoming vehicle. The Ioniq 5 N was first teased back in July, so it’s been a long time coming for those eager to get their hands on this impressive electric car.
One of the key features that make the Ioniq 5 N so highly anticipated is the fact that it is Hyundai’s first N-branded EV. The N branding is dedicated to high-performance vehicles, and the Ioniq 5 N certainly lives up to this standard. With an upgraded design and enhanced performance capabilities, the Ioniq 5 N takes electric driving to a whole new level. This EV can go from zero to 60 MPH in just over three seconds, with a top speed of 161 MPH, setting it apart from its predecessor, the standard Ioniq 5, which maxes out at 115 MPH. The dual motors of the Ioniq 5 N create an impressive 641 Horsepower (478 kW) with the proprietary N Grin Boost engaged.
Of course, as an electric vehicle, the Ioniq 5 N’s battery is a central focus. The newly-designed 84 kWH battery features a thermal regulation system to reduce heat-induced power degradation. This innovative system allows for quick charging, with the ability to go from 10 percent to 80 percent of battery life in just 18 minutes when connected to a DCFC 350 kW charger.
In addition to its impressive performance capabilities, the Ioniq 5 N comes equipped with a range of high-performance features, many of which bear the company’s preferred “N” nomenclature. The vehicle features a specially-tuned N R-MDPS (Rack-Mounted Motor-Driven Power Steering) system, the N Pedal system for responsive handling, the N Drift Optimizer for maintaining the perfect drift angle, and the N Brake Regen system to help conserve energy. All of these features are designed to enhance the driving experience while maintaining the vehicle’s high-performance standards.
