641 HP, a New Face, and a Wing

Hyundai unveiled its first high-performance electric vehicle at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2023, and today, two years later, it’s launching its second. The Hyundai Ioniq 6 N joins the lineup as EV sales begin to falter, but it packs a ton of power into a practical package that shouldn’t break the bank when it goes on sale.

The Ioniq 6 N has two electric motors making 601 horsepower and 546 pound-feet of torque. However, N Grin Boost can increase the output to 641 hp and 568 lb-ft for 10 seconds, matching the 5 N’s output. With N Launch Control, the 6 N can hit 62 miles per hour in 3.2 seconds on its way to a 160-mph top speed.

Hyundai says it fully redesigned the suspension geometry and reengineered the chassis for better handling. The 6N features new stroke-sensing electronically controlled dampers, which integrate a sensor that allows the vehicle to adjust the damping force based on driving conditions. N Drift Optimizer and N Torque Distribution also help manage the car’s power for increased fun and capability.

The EV has four-piston front and single-piston rear brakes with 15.7- and 14.1-inch discs, respectively. It rides on 20-inch wheels wrapped in 275/35R20 Pirelli P-Zero 5 tires developed for the 6 N. Visually, the 6 N features a swan-neck rear wing for added downforce and wider fenders to accommodate its revamped stance.

Hyundai’s High-Performance Technology Is Here

The 6 N features an upgraded N e-Shift system that minimizes performance loss and improves the sound quality. It works with the N Ambient Shift Light, which synchronizes the ambient light with the simulated gear shift change. Hyundai also includes N Active Sound+ with three unique options: a motorsport-inspired “Ignition,” an EV sound with heritage vibes called “Evolution,” and the futuristic sci-fi tones named “Lightspeed.”

Hyundai says the 6 N will travel up to 291 miles on a charge, based on Europe’s WLTP standards. That will be less in the United States. The Ioniq 5 N, which has the same size 84.0-kilowatt-hour battery, is rated to travel up to 221 miles.

Hyundai will offer the high-powered EV in the following colors: Performance Blue Pearl, Abyss Black Pearl, Serenity White Pearl, Nocturne Gray Metallic, Nocturne Gray Matte, and Gravity Gold Matte. The automaker will also offer a global catalog of N performance parts, enabling owners to customize their EVs.

2026 Ioniq 6 N Pricing Mystery

Hyundai hasn’t released pricing information for the Hyundai 6 N or when it’ll go on sale. The automaker revamped the regular Ioniq 6 for 2026 but hasn’t shared pricing for the updated model.

The 2025 Ioniq 5 N starts at $67,800, including destination, and we expect the Ioniq 6 N to have a similar price tag, making it a performance value. It could be cheaper, too. The regular Ioniq 6 is about $5,000 less to start than the standard Ioniq 5, which might mean the 6 N could cost in the low $60,000 range.

We’ll likely receive specific details closer to the car’s on-sale date.
