SEOUL, July 11 (AJP) - Hyundai Motor has debuted its latest high-performance electric vehicle, the Ioniq 6 N, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in southern England, marking the brand’s second entry into its performance-focused N electric vehicle lineup.
Following last year’s launch of the Ioniq 5 N, the new model builds on Hyundai’s ambition to fuse electric powertrains with track-ready performance.
The Ioniq 6 N features a dual-motor setup, enabling it to sprint from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.2 seconds. Its top speed is rated at 257 km/h.
“Ioniq 6 N combines formidable power, sophisticated battery management, aerodynamic mastery and advanced suspension systems to deliver a compelling blend of speed, stability and comfort,” said Manfred Harrer, executive vice president and head of vehicle development tech at Hyundai Motor.
To sustain high-performance driving, Hyundai has equipped the vehicle with an enhanced thermal management system called N Battery, designed to reduce preconditioning time and maintain battery efficiency under stress.
Exterior aerodynamic upgrades — most notably a swan-neck rear wing and flared fenders — are aimed at boosting downforce and improving stability at speed.
Beneath the surface, Hyundai engineers have reconfigured the suspension geometry and added stroke-sensing electronically controlled dampers, which adapt to various driving scenarios — from everyday commutes to aggressive cornering on racetracks.
The company plans to exhibit the Ioniq 6 N for the first time in South Korea at the Lotte Premium Outlet in Uiwang, Gyeonggi Province, from July 13 to 20. A commercial launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025, with pricing to be announced at a later date.
