HYUNDAI SPOTLIGHT
2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N:
Navigating New Horizons
IONIQ 5 N is the first electrified model for the Hyundai N brand, representing its electrification vision and a fresh opportunity for performance enthusiasts to satisfy their driving passion on the road and track.
Hyundai’s first N brand electric performance vehicle, the 2025 IONIQ 5 N combines the standard IONIQ 5 model’s Electrified-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) with N motorsport technologies and leverages N expertise from electrified ‘Rolling Labs,’ including the RN22e and N Vision 74, which made their debuts at CIAS 2023. These allow Hyundai to maximize its performance capabilities and ensure it meets the three N performance pillars of ‘Corner Rascal,’ ‘Racetrack Capability’ and ‘Everyday Sports Car.’
This powerful EV benefits from several technical improvements, including a two-stage inverter with increased energy efficiency for stronger power output from a new 84 kWh battery, enabling its electric motors to spin up to 21,000 RPM, providing an estimated 641 horsepower (478 kW) with N Grin Boost engaged.
Several exclusive features aid in track performance. N Grin Boost maximizes acceleration with extra power for a 10-second interval, and N Launch Control automatically activates N Grin Boost during launch, providing three different traction levels for the fastest possible launch and allowing drivers to accelerate their vehicle like a professional race car.
IONIQ 5 N’s exterior distinguishes itself from the standard IONIQ 5 with a change of proportions and adds many performance-enhancing design elements, such as the wing-type rear spoiler to maximize its circuit driving potential via aerodynamic tuning.
The interior neatly conveys the N family look with the application of N-branded elements, including steering wheel, seats, door scuff panels and metal pedals, all optimized for track driving. Driving modes can be customized and matched to each button in various combinations to maximize the IONIQ 5 N driving spirit.
The all-new IONIQ 5 N races into dealerships this Spring.
