Hyundai IONIQ 5 N pure electric exhiliration

Hyundai IONIQ 5 N is the brands entry into sports electric cars. Its available now in dealers around Australia. The IONIQ 5 N is aimed at allowing buyers to have three cars in one, an everyday sports car, a Corner Rascal, Hyundai’s words not mine, and a racetrack speedster.

It comes packed with technology that transforms the IONIQ 5 into something special.

IONIQ 5 N comes with an 84kWh battery that produces some 448 kW of power and a staggering 740Nm of torque.

It will race from 0-100km/h in about 3.5 seconds and if you have the facility, it will top out at 260km/h. It does have a boost factor for a bit extra as well.

In normal driving mode it is good for a realistic range of about 400km.

The IONIQ 5 N is a technological pandoras box, with N Active sound  with N e-Shift to make it like you’re driving an actual sports car.

It also has N Torque distribution, electronic limited slip diff, Launch control, plus a host of track driving technologies. It also comes with Bluelink OTA update capability.

The Hyundai IONIQ 5 N is priced from $111,000 plus the usual costs.

One thing about electric sports cars. They are fast, yes, but even with activated exhaust sounds, they still seem soulless to me.
