With this power, the Ioniq 5 N can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, with a maximum speed of 260 km/h.

Hyundai has also provided this car with a new battery pack with a capacity of 84 kWh, which allows the vehicle to cover a distance of up to 350 km on just one battery charge.

Not only that, ultra-fast charging technology is also presented. The Ioniq 5 N can charge from 10 to 80 percent in just 18 minutes.

The Ioniq 5 N also features special features such as N e-shift and N Active Sound+, which add an extra dimension to the driving experience.
