South Korean auto major Hyundai Motor Company has revealed the IONIQ 6 N at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, marking the latest step in its electric high-performance vehicle development. The model is designed around Hyundai N’s three core pillars – cornering capability, racetrack performance and everyday usability.
The IONIQ 6 N is powered by dual motors producing 478 kW (650 PS) and 770 Nm of torque in boost mode, delivering 0–100 kmph acceleration in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 257 kmph. It uses an 84.0 kWh high-voltage battery, which can be charged from 10 percent to 80 percent in approximately 18 minutes under optimal conditions using a 350 kW charger. A new N Battery system supports various track driving scenarios with improved thermal management and reduced conditioning time.
Jose Munoz, President and CEO, Hyundai Motor Company, said, “With IONIQ 6 N, Hyundai N aims to elevate its offerings, enticing drivers with electric powertrains that offer high-performance enthusiasts a thrilling new avenue to electrify their passion both on the road and the track.”
Engineering upgrades include a reworked suspension geometry, stroke sensing electronically controlled dampers and a chassis tuned for high-speed stability and improved grip. Braking is managed by 400mm front and 360mm rear discs, supported by up to 0.6 G regenerative braking. Aerodynamic enhancements such as a swan neck rear wing and wider fenders aid high-speed cornering stability. The vehicle achieves a drag coefficient of 0.27.
Key performance features include N e-Shift, which simulates internal combustion gear shifts, N Launch Control, N Grin Boost for short bursts of full power, N Drift Optimiser with configurable settings and adjustable front-rear torque distribution across 11 levels. The IONIQ 6 N also features N Pedal for agile cornering and TPMS Custom Mode for targeted tyre pressure settings.
Driver engagement is further supported by the N Active Sound+ system with multiple sound profiles and the N Ambient Shift Light, which visually signals optimal gear shift points. The N Track Manager allows users to log, monitor and analyse track performance.
The IONIQ 6 N will be available in six colours, including a new Performance Blue Pearl, and a black interior with Performance Blue accents. It will also be offered with N performance parts for further personalisation.
Hyundai showcased the model alongside others from the N lineup during the Goodwood event, including the IONIQ 5 N, i30 N, and various motorsport vehicles, culminating in a coordinated demonstration run.
Manfred Harrer, Executive Vice-President and Head of Vehicle Development Tech Unit, Hyundai Motor Company, said, “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, setting new benchmarks in modern automotive engineering.”
