Can the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N see new records for the brand on the renowned race track? 

The Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is testing the performance capabilities of Ioniq 5 N at the Nurburgring circuit ahead of its world premiere in July. Typically seen as a normal family car, the N at the end of the Ioniq 5 name suggests this car will be anything but that, but will it live up to expectations?

Till Wartenberg, Vice President and Head of N Brand & Motorsport at Hyundai Motor Company, stated, “The Nurburgring is where every N model is honed to the Nth degree, so our first high-performance, all-electric N model must also prove itself here.”

“Ioniq 5 N just completed its 10,000 km durability test on the Nordschleife, which is an important milestone that proves the vehicle’s high endurance and racetrack capability. And yet, we just began our second 10,000 km test to push Ioniq 5 N’s limits.” He added.
