Rather than just rushing a high performance EV to market, as neighbours Kia did with the EV6 GT, Hyundai has taken its time in finessing this IONIQ 5 N. A hot hatch enthusiast might even guess that the man behind it, Development Chief Tyrone Johnson, was the same engineer that created the memorable final generation Ford Focus RS, because there's something of the same uncompromising track vibe here. Tailored though, for a very different age.
You might think that an EV like this is contradictory to everything the electric vehicle concept stands for. Or you might rejoice that a dull, rather worthy era of automotive development is set to be enlivened by cars like the IONIQ 5 N. We're of the latter view and if you agree and find yourself in the market for an EV of this size with more than a dash of track spice, then we'd thoroughly recommend that you take a look at this one.
