Hyundai’s quickest production car yet – the Ioniq 6 N – has arrived in Australia, where the mid-size electric sports sedan has been priced from $115,000 before on-road costs.

First revealed at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Ioniq 6 N joins the identically priced Ioniq 5 N electric SUV in Hyundai’s high-performance electric-vehicle (EV) stable, and shares many of its components.

The new Ioniq 6 N rides on the same E-GMP underpinnings as the Ioniq 5 N – and the Kia EV6 – and has an identical dual-motor powertrain, but scores a reworked chassis, revamped battery system, and unique aerodynamic body upgrades. 

Compared to the Ioniq 5 N, the Ioniq 6 N can also travel 39km (487km total) further on a single charge courtesy of its sleeker bodyshell.

Handling upgrades over the standard Ioniq 6 include revised, low roll-centre suspension geometry, stroke-sensing Electronically Controlled Suspension (ECS) dampers, an electronic limited-slip differential, and and 20-inch forged alloy wheels wrapped in N-specific Pirelli P Zero 5 tyres.

Diagonal chassis bracing between the boot and rear bulkhead increases torsional stiffness by 20 per cent.

The Ioniq 6 N is all-wheel drive by default, but up to 95 per cent of the available power can be sent to either the front or rear wheels using the N Torque Distribution (NTD) tool.

Further, the N Drift Optimiser lets the driver set up initiation angles, the amount of wheelspin and other parameters for drifting (only on closed roads, of course).
