Hyundai Motor Co. takes a pivotal leap toward its future mobility vision, premiering the highly anticipated Ioniq 5 N at Britain's esteemed 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed. The groundbreaking vehicle merges Hyundai's E-GMP platform with N brand's motorsport technologies, creating a high-performance electric vehicle that accelerates from zero to 100km in a stunning 3.4 seconds.
Boasting an 84 kWh battery pack, the Ioniq 5 N accelerates from zero to 100 kilometers in a record-breaking 3.4 seconds. Hyundai Motor has combined the electrified-global modular platform (E-GMP) from the standard Ioniq 5 model with N's motorsport-bred technologies to create a high-performance electric vehicle with an exceptional driving experience.
Chang Jae-hoon, the President and CEO of Hyundai Motor highlighted that the Ioniq 5 N represents a game-changer in electric high-performance vehicles. He emphasized the N brand's commitment to pushing the boundaries of vehicle performance, using its technological expertise and motorsport experience.
Till Wartenberg, the Vice President and Head of N Brand and Motorsport at Hyundai Motor expressed the N brand's aspiration to provide a signature fun driving experience through various powertrain options, including petrol, electric, and hydrogen.
Hyundai's ambitious plans extend beyond the N brand. They are set to launch their first EV model in the domestic market this year, followed by global markets in the coming year. Additionally, Hyundai's E-GMP platform will support the development of the Ioniq 6, Ioniq 7, Genesis GV60 SUV, Kia EV6, and EV9 SUVs.
With a long-term investment of 109.4 trillion won (US $85 billion), Hyundai aims to secure a leading position in the global future mobility market, with a target of selling 1 million pure electric models by 2030. Plans for two dedicated EV factories, including the Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America in Georgia and another facility in Korea, further demonstrate their commitment to shaping the future of electric mobility.
