Typically, the formula for performance vehicles is to add power, stiffen the suspension and bolt on some sticky tires. Hyundai took things much further with the IONIQ 5 N, adding N e-Shift, N Active Sound +, N Grin Boost and more. Those Ns mean nothing to many now but they will soon. Deep and powerful, IONIQ 5 N has the potential to join the ranks of performance greats while doing double duty as a family hauler. Tom Voelk travels to WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca to experience the all-electric 5 N with 221 miles of range and ultra-fast charging speed.
Tom attended a Hyundai sponsored event to drive the IONIQ 5 N. Opinions remain his own.
