A few months back, the Hyundai Ioniq 6 received a slew of updates inside and out. At the same time, the high-performance N version was also previewed, but not much details were revealed.
Now that Hyundai has finally rolled out the spec sheet, there’s a lot of juicy details to be seen in the Ioniq 6 N. And for those who’d love the performance of the Ioniq 5 N in a, er, less boxy package, this is your ticket.
First off, power figures of the Ioniq 6 N are the same as Ioniq 5 N, not that we’re upset about it. The two motors make a combined output of 601hp and 740Nm, but activate N Grin Boost, it’s ramped up to 641hp and 770Nm. With that mode activated, it allows this EV to rocket to 100kph in just 3.2 seconds.

Other neat stats? The motors spin up to 21,000rpm, helping it reach a top speed of 257kph. Its battery has a capacity of 84kWh allowing it a range of up to 467km. Given the car’s slippery shape, it’s no surprise that it has a drag coefficient of just 0.27.
To maximize battery life and vehicle performance, the Ioniq 6 N comes with something called N Battery Conditioning. There are Drag, Sprint, and Endurance modes that heats up the battery depending on the mode selected. Drag mode warms up the battery quicker, while Endurance does its best to preserve charge.
Of course, there’s the N Drift Optimizer. There are three levels of Regen Torque Oversteer, along with 10 levels for stability control and traction control. And speaking of chassis wizardry, there’s Hydro G-bushings at the front and dual layer bushings at the back. And let’s not forget the clever N Brake Regen system that lets the motors assist the brakes for additional stopping power and a higher resistance to fade and wear.
There’s no shortage of novelties in the Ioniq 6 N, either. Like the Ioniq 5 N, there’s the N Active Sound system that pipes in three selectable, er, sounds into the cabin. There’s a choice of Ignition that simulates an engine, Evolution that goes for a more EV soundtrack, and Lightspeed that’s inspired by the world of sci-fi.
There’s also the N Track Manager logs in data and lap times, and even projects a ghost car of your fastest lap. And, lastly, a built-in action camera mount is a neat feature for track day folks who enjoy recording their said lap.
The Hyundai Ioniq 6 N is now available in its home market of South Korea. Over there, it retails for ?79.9 million, which is about P3.3-M at current conversion rates sans taxes.
