Hyundai’s Ioniq 6 N, a high-performance electric sedan, is set to receive a mid-cycle refresh in 2026, following in the footsteps of its sibling, the Ioniq 5. Recent spy shots reveal the camouflaged prototype undergoing testing in Germany, showcasing its aggressive styling and powerful performance.
The Ioniq 6 N stands out with its Sonata inspired split headlights, double spoke alloy wheels, red brake calipers, and a fixed rear wing reminiscent of the 992-generation Porsche 911 Aerokit. Building on the foundation of the RN22e concept, the Ioniq 6 N is expected to feature a dual-motor setup delivering impressive power and torque, rivaling the Kia EV6 GT.
While the exact power output remains to be confirmed, it’s likely that the Ioniq 6 N will boast similar figures to the Ioniq 5 N, which offers a staggering 641 horsepower and 568 pound feet of torque.
This level of performance, combined with the Ioniq 6’s aerodynamic design and advanced electric powertrain, promises to deliver a thrilling driving experience. Additionally, the Ioniq 6 N is expected to benefit from the larger high-voltage battery introduced in the Ioniq 5 N.
This increased battery capacity will likely translate to a longer driving range, making the Ioniq 6 N a practical choice for both daily commuting and longer road trips.
The Ioniq 6 N represents a significant step forward for Hyundai’s electric performance lineup. With its aggressive styling, powerful performance, and advanced technology, it’s poised to become a formidable competitor in the growing market for high-performance electric vehicles.
