Hyundai Ioniq 5 N first drive review: Arguably one of the best all-electric driver's car ever createdThis Hyundai Ioniq 5 N isn't exactly a hot hatch because it's a few sizes too big, but to call it a sports compact SUV sounds a tad overkill. So you'll have to pardon me when I say I'm a bit lost on this.To cut the long story short, I want the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N not because it looks cool or because the regular Hyundai Ioniq 5 bagged the Sgcarmart Car of the Year last year.
As a result, the 0 to 100km/h dash is dispatched in just 3.4 seconds, just before the all-electric sports beefcake hits the top speed of 260km/h. I won't lie, the Ioniq 5 N is blistering quick, quicker than a lot of electric vehicles on paper and it does feel that way. During my time with the car doing sprint races, I suspect there'll be very little cars that can keep up, and that will easily put a smile on your face.
And that's not all. Hyundai decided to introduce a system that mimics an eight-speed gearbox. Novel yet dubious and gimmicky at first, until you try it. It just wouldn't be possible and properly justified to get through all of the Ioniq 5 N's drive and customisable modes in just a handful of laps in eight different driving courses at HMG Driving Experience Centre, considering the car's first rate dynamics and monumental performance.Thankfully, the opportunity to do an in-depth test drive will be possible, since the Ioniq 5 N is slated to be launched in Singapore in the fourth quarter of this year.
