Hyundai Motor unveils the high-performance Ioniq 5 N, marking a pivotal shift in their journey towards dominating future mobility. Introduced in Korea, the all-electric vehicle promises unparalleled driving experiences backed by top-tier tech.
Featuring an 84 kWh battery pack, the Ioniq 5 N was initially unveiled at the 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed in Great Britain last July. This cutting-edge model can accelerate from zero to 100 kph in just 3.4 seconds and is a new addition to the driver-centric, high-performance electric vehicle segment.
Priced at 76 million won ($58,000), excluding individual consumption taxes and considering the tax benefits for environment-friendly vehicles, the Ioniq 5 N delivers a range of approximately 350 kilometers on a single charge.
Combining the electric global modular platform (E-GMP) of the standard Ioniq 5 with N's motorsport-derived technologies, this vehicle represents Hyundai Motor Group's exclusive EV platform, dedicated to delivering next-generation electric mobility.
Notably, Hyundai's Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 models are also built on the E-GMP platform, and the company plans to launch the Ioniq 7 next year, further expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Furthermore, the E-GMP platform is shared across Hyundai's independent Genesis brand and its smaller affiliate, Kia Corp., underscoring the group's commitment to consistent innovation.
With an ambitious vision to establish a dominant position in the global future mobility market, Hyundai aims to invest 109.4 trillion won by 2032 while targeting the sale of 1 million pure electric models by 2030.
The company has already constructed its first dedicated electric vehicle factory, the Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America. It is set to begin operations in the second half of 2024 with a production capacity of 300,000 units per year. Additionally, another EV-dedicated plant is in progress in Korea and is scheduled to commence production in 2025.
Under the Hyundai brand, the N Line and N badges are available for models, offering exceptional performance capabilities for everyday driving. Bridging the gap between Hyundai's high-performance N brand and its standard models, the N Line variants feature performance-inspired elements, presenting a compelling choice for consumers seeking a dynamic driving experience.
