JAKARTA - Earlier this year, the automotive universe was shocked by the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N which was seen passing by in front of the headquarters of Lamborghini in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy.

In the video, the track, which is usually traversed by a camouflage-clad supercar from Lamborghini, is now traversed by the electric crossover. Surprisingly, the manufacturer with the banteng bandgo goes berserk is not shy about testing the Hyundai Ioniq 5N with a striking performance Blue pattern.

While there is a possibility that the car is owned by one of the employees of this brand, it will be very interesting if the manufacturer with the problem minister logo is studying designing its first electric car from Hyundai Ioniq 5 N.

Since his global debut in 2023, Hyundai Ioniq 5N has attracted the attention of many parties including Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann. However, there is one thing he is less impressed about in the crossover, namely the presence of machine sound and dental change simulations.

The German revealed that the production version of the Lanzador will still use a voice but will not imitate the ICE machines currently in the ranks of Lamborghini, namely V8, V10, and V12.

"Personally, this is not something that should happen in the future and I tend to disagree with the sound of fake combustion engines on electric cars," Winkelmann said as quoted by Drive, Saturday, March 22.

For Winkelmann, engine sound is not only the only attraction in a vehicle but also the driving sensation felt by the driver in controlling the steering wheel.

"In addition to sound, what's important is that you feel the sensation of driving Lamborghini, such as how the car reacts, when entering the corner, the brake reaction, the acceleration response, and control behavior," Winkelmann added.

However, Winkelmann did not rule out the possibility that Lamborghini's first electric car would come with the voice of imitation and would decide in the future.

"For the vote, we still have time to decide and this is not an easy decision," Winkelmann concluded.
