The Ioniq 6 N is designed to perform, delivering around 641 horsepower with dual motors (223 hp front and 378 hp rear). This powerhouse can propel the car from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 62 mph) in approximately 3.1 to 3.2 seconds, with a top speed nearing 160 mph (257 km/h). To ensure an engaging drive, Hyundai has incorporated advanced handling technology, including electronically controlled dampers, enhanced suspension geometry for improved cornering stability, and a torque-vectoring all-wheel-drive system. For added excitement, the car features an upgraded "N e-Shift" system, mimicking gear shifts to enhance the driving experience[1][2][3].
In terms of range, the Ioniq 6 N is equipped with an 84 kWh lithium-ion battery, capable of ultra-rapid charging (up to 350 kW). The EPA combined range is estimated at about 240 miles, while the WLTP rating is around 291 miles. Real-world range will typically be between 200 to 240 miles, depending on driving style and conditions[3].
Pricing for the 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 6 N is estimated to be approximately $75,000. The interior of the Ioniq 6 N is dominated by part-alcantara bucket seats, and it comfortably accommodates two adults in the back seats.
The Ioniq 6 N also offers features such as the 'Track Mode', which records lap times, and the 'N Drift Optimizer', allowing for drifting maneuvers. The car also boasts a separate screen for climate control and a big touchscreen displaying dedicated N adaptive features.
The Ioniq 6 N will go on sale next year, but pricing is yet to be confirmed. It is expected to be priced around £70,000, similar to the Ioniq 5 N. Users can choose from a motorsport combustion-engine soundtrack, an EV-like spaceship thrum, and sci-fi sounds of 'Lightspeed'.

However, its strut braces make it less practical than the standard model, reducing the boot capacity to 401-liters.
