Hyundai is making bold strides with its Ioniq 6 N, rumored to be the most powerful model in its N series. Expected to debut by 2025, this electric anomaly is set to redefine boundaries in the segment.

The car will hit 0 to 60 mph in a staggering 3.2 seconds

Hyundai’s journey towards electrification gained momentum with the Ioniq 5 N, but the Ioniq 6 N is set to surpass its predecessor. Equipped with a dual-motor setup, it’s anticipated to deliver a staggering 641 horsepower. Though its torque remains under wraps, it’s speculated to exceed the 545 lb-ft offered by the Ioniq 5 N. These figures suggest a vehicle capable of extraordinary acceleration, likely outperforming the Ioniq 5 N’s 3.2-second sprint to 60 mph.

The Ioniq 6 N’s design borrows insights from the RN22e concept, unveiled last year as a precursor to Hyundai’s electric N models. The RN22e, with its 577 horsepower, not only matched the Kia EV6 GT but also served as a testing ground for the E-GMP platform, crucial for high-performance electric vehicles.

Despite this electric focus, Hyundai hasn’t abandoned gasoline-powered cars. The upcoming Elantra N is expected to feature an even more robust gasoline engine. However, the emphasis on electric N models is unmistakable, driven by tightening global emissions regulations.

This move isn’t just about compliance. Hyundai is committed to keeping the thrill of driving alive, even in an electric future. The Ioniq 6 N stands as a testament to this commitment, blending environmental responsibility with the exhilaration of high performance.
