Hyundai IONIQ 6 N Debuts; A New Chapter in High-Performance EVs

Hyundai Motor Company has taken the wraps off its latest high-performance electric vehicle, the IONIQ 6 N, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2025. This new model marks a major step forward in Hyundai N’s electrification journey, blending cutting-edge electric technology with the brand’s motorsport-inspired DNA.

The IONIQ 6 N is built to thrill on both the racetrack and the street. Based on Hyundai N’s core performance pillars — Corner Rascal, Racetrack Capability, and Everyday Sportscar — the car delivers a balance of speed, handling, and everyday usability.

Powered by a dual-motor setup, the IONIQ 6 N produces up to 650 PS with 770 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds using N Launch Control. Top speed? A thrilling 257 km/h.

Advanced Engineering & Features:

Hyundai has completely reworked the IONIQ 6 for its N version, with major updates that include:

  • Redesigned suspension and chassis for sharper handling
  • Electronically Controlled Suspension (ECS) with stroke sensors for smarter ride control
  • N Battery Management for better thermal control and quick pre-conditioning
  • Improved aerodynamics, featuring a swan neck rear wing and wider fenders
  • HN-marked Pirelli P-Zero tires for maximum grip
  • 400 mm front brakes and advanced regenerative braking

The drag coefficient of 0.27 helps keep performance high while remaining efficient.

Engaging the Senses

Hyundai hasn’t just focused on speed — the IONIQ 6 N offers a fully immersive driving experience:

  • N e-Shift simulates gear shifts like a traditional petrol car
  • N Active Sound+ delivers customizable synthetic engine sounds — from futuristic to race-inspired
  • N Ambient Shift Light gives visual cues for gear changes
  • N Grin Boost adds a 10-second burst of maximum power for overtakes
  • N Drift Optimizer and Torque Distribution offer 11 levels of adjustability for drift and grip settings
  • N Track Manager lets drivers create custom tracks, view ghost car laps, and review performance

Bold Looks & Custom Options

The IONIQ 6 N debuts in a brand-new Performance Blue Pearl color, with other options like Gravity Gold Matte, Abyss Black Pearl, and Nocturne Gray. Inside, the sporty cabin features Performance Blue accents, premium materials, and tech-focused design.

Hyundai will also offer N Performance Parts, allowing buyers to further personalize their car for track or street use.

Goodwood Festival Highlights

The IONIQ 6 N made its dynamic debut alongside Hyundai’s full N lineup, including:

  • IONIQ 5 N
  • RN24
  • i30 N
  • WRC Rally cars
  • And the IONIQ 6 N Drift Spec
