In case you've missed the memo, Hyundai is putting the finishing touches on its first electric N model. The winner of the Motor1.com 2022 Editors' Choice Award vil få høyytelsesbehandlingen i 2023, sannsynligvis i tråd med den mekanisk relaterte Kia EV6 GT. Fordi entusiaster ikke er helt klare til å gi opp spenningen fra en gassdrevet sportsbil, har det sørkoreanske merket jobbet med kunstige lyder for å etterligne en ICE.

I et intervju med australsk publikasjon CarExpert, Hyundai Executive Technical Advisor Albert Biermann said the idea behind these add-ons is to deliver the "same jolt and downshift vibrations you experience in our ICE N cars." He went on to mention "the idea is to come pretty close to the feel and sound of the DCT in the i30 N luke."

For det formål, Ioniq 5 N will have something called Virtual Grin Shift (VGN), activated by pressing a button on the steering wheel. The driver then must pull both paddles to turn on the "virtual shift mode" to artificially change gears. VGN is complemented by N Sound Plus, which contains various noises you'd expect from a gas-fueled N car. Future over-the-air updates will bring additional sounds, and owners will be able to add their own fake noises.

Hyundai is currently fine-tuning these faux noises, including one that'll imitate the sound made by a gas car when you're bouncing off the rev limiter. Another trick up its sleeve will be a dedicated drift mode courtesy of a rear-biased setup by pressing a button mounted inside. Stronger friction brakes for the regenerative braking system are also planned.

As for the technical specifications that really matter, expect a dual-motor setup Albert Biermann has already revealed the Ioniq 5 N will have somewhere in the region of 600 horsepower. There's no word about torque, but we’ll remind you the EV6 GT has 564 pound-feet (740 Newton meters). Kia’s speedy electric crossover does 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in three and a half seconds en route to 162 mph (260 km/h), but don’t be too surprised if Hyundai's EV will top those numbers.

Ioniq 5 N har allerede blitt ertet flere ganger, så se etter en offisiell debut i første halvdel av neste år.
