While everyone is copying Hyundai’s virtual gear shift, introduced in the IONIQ 5 N, the company is already working on the next big thing.
Hyundai plans fun new features for upcoming N EVs
Who knew fake gear shifting and artificial sounds would be such a hit? After launching the IONIQ 5 N in 2023, Hyundai’s first electric sports car, instantly became a hit, winning over journalists with its “electrifying” performance.
The IONIQ 5 N packs up to 641 hp and 568 lb-ft of instant torque when N Grin Boost is active, a feature that unlocks the full vehicle’s performance for a 10-second power boost.
What really caught most people’s attention wasn’t the instant acceleration — it was just how fun the vehicle was to drive.
