Hyundai Motor’s ‘Ioniq 5N’, made closer to the internal combustion engine
“The IONIQ 5N realistically implements the shift impact and popcorn sound that can be felt from an internal combustion engine.” “It feels like you’re riding on an internal combustion engine.”
While Hyundai Motor Company’s first high-performance electric vehicle, Ioniq 5 N, is scheduled to be released in the middle of this month, test drive impressions from foreign drivers and foreign media who have previously tested it are attracting attention. In particular, the main feature of the Ioniq 5 N that they have in common is that it ‘resembles an internal combustion engine’. In the end, the element that Hyundai N brand chose to save the fun of driving, which is the brand philosophy, was the internal combustion engine.
In fact, it is interpreted that Hyundai Motor Company, which aims to be the ‘first mover’ in the electric vehicle era, will set the standard for ‘how similar it is to an internal combustion engine’ in the high-performance electric car market. In particular, in the case of high-performance cars that are specialized for harsh driving, as loud engine sounds and gearshifts are considered one of the elements that give pleasure, there are observations that competition to catch up with the sensibility of internal combustion engines may become fierce in the future.
