Hyundai Canada Sets IONIQ 5 N Price, Unveils Electric Performance Future

Hyundai Canada has recently unveiled the pricing details for its highly anticipated IONIQ 5 N, marking a significant milestone as the first fully electric model under its N performance brand. With a starting price of $78,199, excluding freight and PDI charges, this model is not only the fastest in Hyundai's lineup but also a bold statement towards electrification from the N brand. The IONIQ 5 N distinguishes itself with an impressive output of 641 horsepower from its electric motors, enabling it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in a mere 3.4 seconds.

This performance-oriented EV integrates the Electrified-Global Modular Platform of the standard IONIQ 5 with advanced N motorsport technologies. It boasts a two-stage inverter and dual high-performance electric motors. Additionally, it features the N Grin Boost, enhancing acceleration for ten seconds, and driver-selectable N e-shift and N Active Sound+ functions for an immersive driving experience. The design is not just about aesthetics; it includes functional elements like an enlarged rear spoiler and flared wheel arches, complemented by 21-inch forged alloy wheels.

The interior of the IONIQ 5 N is equally impressive, with a focus on enhancing the driving experience. It introduces a newly designed steering wheel equipped with N drive-mode buttons and a N Grin Boost button for instant power access. The centre console is optimized for track driving, featuring USB-C connectivity, a wireless charger, and strategically placed cupholders. For added comfort during high-speed maneuvers, the vehicle includes track-ready N sport bucket seats. Customers will also have the option to personalize their vehicle with a selection of exterior and interior colors.

Set to hit dealerships across Canada in the upcoming weeks, the IONIQ 5 N is a testament to Hyundai Canada's commitment to an electrified future. The company emphasizes that performance vehicles play a crucial role in this transition, aiming to offer exhilarating driving experiences without compromising on environmental sustainability.
