The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq5 N Is A Mind Bogglingly Quick Electric Hot Hatch With German Vibes 

5N is the absolute game changer. no matter what.

I love the exterior design, it reminds me of a vw golf but bigger and more futuristic

Hyundai Motor Group has been killing it. Love my 21 Sonata N Line and went for an oil change got just got a 24 Ioniq5 Love them both. Test drove a black Ioniq5 N I’m in love. Hopefully 🤞 upgrade to the 26 or 27 model. But at time I hope Hyundai give it more range by then. Sofyan as always keep up awesome work

This is way, way cooler than a model 3

The first EV I've actually desired

The batteries in this car are the most expensive on the market right now and contain batteries that are built with the latest technology that is technically advanced. As a result, they are offered incredibly cheaply in terms of price-to-performance, and as a result, the track is made easy to turn. Even with regen braking, the system is equipped with technologies that can take in 0.6g resistance, charge the receiving power instantaneously, and with that power, reduce battery heat. No manufacturer has ever reached this level of technology. So the price of this car is incredibly affordable. These are the areas that car RU-vidrs are missing because they don't understand

Kudos to the Hyundai N team for making this thing. The sound is likely the reason to take this over the top, future customer here. 🙏🏽

EV of the year!

Hyundai’s e-platform is top-notch so far. Mercedes-Benz has agreed to use their platform for future models, except for the EQ series.

Excellent review and video. The Ionic 5 N is an electric vehicle MONSTER. That Pokémon shirt is perfect with the car 🔥🔥🔥

This is probably the coolest looking EV in that blue. I know its not the fastest but that exterior and interior is boss. Plus, experience matters more than bonkers speed you can only use 1% of the time. Think this has more soul than alnost every EV out there

At least, German EVs haven't been able to show us this fun at least until now Anyway, Ioniq6 N would be ultimate game changer though 5 N is game changer enough

Sofyan I'm sorry to say you're incorrect about this being slower than the new model 3 performance, carwow did a drag race and the hyundai actually wins

I like manual seats: lighter, faster to adjust, and one less thing to break.

it does offer a panoramic sunroof, but obviously not in the USA - in Germany we can get it with panorama, shades and heated rear seats (ventilated front seats are option). But why you would order the panoramic sunroof? Hyundai made 42 additional welded points for making the car more stable - and you would buy a panoramic sunroof then? no, you just dont do that in a car like this. Plus: Bierman retired this year. This was his last, but fantastic baby. I personaly think that the Ioniq5n is the absolute best EV you can buy now. Not the EQS AMG, not the Taycan either, Hyundai rocks. And this comes from a Mercedes V12 owner.

I don't understand why you're constantly comparing the I5N's 0-60 to the M3P's 0-60. One's a sedan that weighs 4054lbs, while the other is a hot hatch/SUV that weighs 4861lbs. Of course, the M3P will be faster! lol A fairer comparison would be between the updated MYP whenever that is released and the I5N.

All the Hyundai Kia junk haters are punching air right now because they’re scrambling to find something wrong when they clearly can’t

If this car was under $60K and came with a pano roof in the states, I would have considered it instead of the 24 M3P I bought. Cabin is too dark without it. M3P may be "boring" but is a shockingly good daily driver enthusiast vehicle.

Motortrend got the Ioniq N 2.8sec to 60 1/4 11sec at 125mph

as a former GTI driver that would love to play with the paddles... this thing rules. but it's 66k... not sure if it gets the tax credit, probably does.... i just bought a 2024 model 3 dual motor, 4.2 to sixty feels fast af... 3.06 in this is nutty... and the model 3 performance is the one i wanted, even faster... but again, expensive... after instant lease credit you're into model 3 dual motor for $42,500, high finance charge yes, but easy buying experience. maybe one day we'll get to the point where shifting on EVs (dual clutch experience) becomes reality because transition tech advances to be as instant as EV power delivery today and multiply torque (engineers does my math math here?), provide more experience people are used to, etc. I'm for some kind of sound or visual just for hooning. Also, more EVs need to just have full TC OFF. That feels like all my model 3 dual motor needs to be a drift machine (in the rain at the very least).

The KDM version gets a panoramic sunroof and more color options.

Those rims are pretty sweet

In Europe Ioniq 5 N have sun roof of you want for extra money its a little bit weird it doesnt in us

Driving this car needs to be experienced. These test drive videos are only a glimpse of the experience. I can’t stop driving mines!

This is a great video. If I had my own column this would even make it in a car of the month feature. And I would choose it over a model free performance

I ordered my 5N with Glass-Roof and Digital Rear-Mirror…….in Germany… Are there differences between the US and Europe?! We don‘t have a PANIC Button at the Key.

Not sure why people are saying the 5N is slower then the model 3 performance, it isn't. Carwow did a full comparison and multiple drag races, and the 5N won every time.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="668">11:08</a> Whhoooaaaaaaowww!!!! These buyers are gonna go off the wall with this simulated revs in the Ioniq 5 N wait till the Dodge Charger Daytona EV with its Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust

I think this is probably the most fun EV today considering the price. But two things I want to point out. EV6 GT has headup display. Second, carwow just dragged this against the new M3P. The M3P pick up faster than everytime than the 5N. But the 5N wins in the quarter mile every time.

In this price range, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N (is) the best!.

Love this!! 💗

Ironically, despite this engine exhaust sound and transmission feeling being a digital produced experience, to quote what Alex Roy said recently in a Bloomberg Hot Pursuit podcast about this feature in the 5N, actually helps to make it an analogue experience. Just as a heart beat vibration and sound is to a runner. I can’t wait to give it a test drive. The only downside is in the active noise and gear shift reproduction mode, it is 0.5 seconds slower to 0-60 than in the silent mode. But who wants to drive in a straight line playing w the paddles anyways? It’s for the twisties anyways! 3 seconds silent vs 3.5 seconds mimicking a F1 style transmission is no biggie.

I just watched a video of this car racing on nurburgring. Looked insane.

I don’t want that much power and it costs way too much for usual hot hatch buyers. I wish they had an N line with EV6GT motor and just hint of those fun gimmicks :( Kona EV N would be nice too.

you killed this review. I enjoyed watching this one.

It’s interesting comparing UK to USA N spec: £65k vs $66k. But UK gets V2L; HUD; heated rear seats; rear sun blinds; load cover; misses sporty foot rest. I guess the importer chooses. But fun car.

Hyundai,kia sales may overtake Toyota,honda in future

Thanks for another great video! As an owner driving mostly city in and around DC I see far better range. 230-245 on a given week!

Great review! Looks like the Ioniq 5N is the EV to get over say a Mach-E GT or Rally edition? The other being the KIA EV6 GT 😂

If make those engine sounds ultra realistic I'm the future it'll be an ultimate game changer.

If it was ICE i would get one. If only the Veloster wasnt discontinued it could have looked like this.

hyundai should offer a "hardcore" upgrade package such as porsches "weisach" package, with lightweight carbon panels, ceramic brakes, stripped out interior, roll cage etc.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1129">18:49</a> again the Ioniq 5 in the US never got rear heated seats. It's the the EV6 that has it.

Love your car video

Hi Sofyan, I always watch you on your channel and I always see that you have an updated video of this car. But do you have any suggestions on how can I find one of this? Dealership around my area never have them. Nice work with the video as always.

Great video good detail review. I like everything Hyundai did in this car , they set a great trend that ev can replace combustion engine and can be great track car. I like how the interior is similar to cars we are use to unlike tesla that is like completely different tech to our usual car. I wish Hyundai put gear knob for that n shift instead of padle shift. I even like how they made it hard roof without sunroof as I was crazy about sunroof until I bought my mk6 golf r with sunroof and find myself never open it as in summer you don't want sun and in winter it's too cold and in reality it's useless but just another tech that will cost you when fail. Only down side is price. Especially when it's directly compared to m3p it should at least be similar price or cheaper as I want more competition. Power wise tesla still pick quicker but Hyundai catches up according to carwow even on roll race Hyundai beat m3p which is incredible but for the price Hyundai put Especially in Australia Hyundai is at 110k tesla m3p is 80k it's 30 k different which makes Hyundai shortlisted and straight buy for tesla . I believe in Hyundai and their work and they will find a way to get it done at cheaper price as this is their new product. Keep it up Hyundai I actually like the look and everything in your car except price 😊

It’s impressive… I’d never own an ev or a Hyundai but I will admit it’s pretty cool … not a fan of the red/orange stripes but other than that I like it

Hard to believe how far Hyundai have come since their inception! For the money, though, I’d rather have a GTI with a manual transmission.

Hyundai Kia are killing it

If the Ioniq5N itself is a Super car killer, then imagine what Hyundai is going to unleash with The Hyundai N 2025 Vision Gran Turismo.

I’m in the middle of two cars right now, the i4 m50 and this car! Mi biggest concern is quality issues! I don’t think the ionic is on par with the BMW! Any thoughts on that? Wich one is the best pick overall?

The N is a decent track car straight outta factory. Tesla M3P is a very fast streetcar. ⁠Faster than the N in most situations Check the Carwow video: The N started off at 97% SOC when the the UK, LG pack Model 3 was at 73% SOC. Even then is the 3 faster off the line, faster to 60 mph and does the 1/4 mile at the same time.

The engine sound sounds just like the Alpina that Throttle House reviewed today.

In Korea Ionic5N there is version with panoramic roof, lots of videos reviews that show it… in Europe don’t have why Hyundai??

N means double corner sign! I5N is the most advance EV track machine with steel brake.

What happens if you listen to music, does the reving sound fade away ⁉️

Cool car but they need to really address the range

I made a comment about this idea some years ago and also about the unibody and frame, and it's now coming to pass 😮

Whats the 1/4 mile?

Fuckin' awesome.

This N5 is king so far.

Why no panoramic roof in the US. Panoramic roof available in Europe. Holding out until a roof becomes available.

They need a Jetsons sound

EU/canada spec gets the glass roof, hud and digital rearview camera. US model got robbed. But I still love it.

does this have walkaway auto lock?

carwow compared the Ioniq5 with the new Tesla model 3 performance, and this won (the ioniq5 was faster)

Nice shirt 👍🏽

I get a bit confused when i see this car referred to as a hot hatch. The roof height of the car makes it look like a CUV. I haven't seen the N in person, just the regular version.

3.06 seconds means on a track surface, this is doing 2.9

Why is this an 2025 Ioniq 5 N? Why not 2024?

I5N > M3P I’d be embarrassed to get caught driving any of the Teslas. No thanks to ugly cars.

I'd pay double the price of that Tesla POS for this N.

My bro miles inches what is this the middle ages?! Pls at least add the metric system for international viewers😅 very clear review besides that❤

That fake engine noise 😆😂🤣. Good Review

Range: 221 miles is 355 kilometers.

No red seats or red inside is huge buzz kill ,i was interested.I don't care about engine crap. It's lame to me, engine and speed are a death trap in America. Common sense aint common

The new model 3 is faster 0 to 60 but the Ioniq 5 N still faster

I'm just counting down the days until I buy one. The thing I want to wait for though is the addition of the Vision roof in the US market. I'd still get it if they decide not to bring it to the US, but hoping they will in next year's model as an option. My only other wish would be to have different ICE sounds outside of a 2.0l 4 cylinder. If it's digital, why not add in a v8, v10, v12? Heck, why not add in a early 2000s era F1 v10? It's not like you'd have to worry about reliability and the stress of actual high revs!

How much? I'm sure it's about 1 million. 250-mile range is useless. Especially when there is not enough charging stations. What do I care if it takes four hours to charge, I'm never in a hurry when I'm travelling.

Get ready for the Kia boys😂😂

It would be more impressive if the 5N was $20,000 cheaper, had a 0-60 that was below 3s, and range that was 300+ miles to compete with the 2024 Tesla M3P.

Would take this all day any day over the model 3. The N looks like fun! The model 3 looks like a sad dystopian future where robots design everything.

Other way around do people want to experience fake sounds? A lot of engineering for a function that doesn't realy matter, it is fake at a high costs. Can I order it at a discount without this sound module?

Too bad the leases on these are dog water. Stupid high for a $68k car. There are some dealerships that are knocking off 2-3k but lease is still absurd.

Everything is good except for RANGE =(

The only one with a mind bogglingly hotter hatch than the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq5 N is Sofyan!!!

I want one but no sunroof and no power seats in 2024 is insane

Its funny how Hyundai (yes, Hyundai) Beat DODGE to the Game...😅

Smoke and model 3 performance far far long way check test

If Hyundai could legally badge this car "VW" and "GTI", they absolutely would.

The thought of inexperienced drivers having that power is terrifying, pretty unnecessary.

Solid performance car, but that range is just unacceptable. A comparable model 3 performance has 303 miles of range.

Hit a good size pot hole those wheels are done rubber band size side wall on the tires a 20 inch wheel would have been okay a 21 inch don't think was needed

I can do without the fake stuff.

Redline dude has been specifically instructed to use his knowledge and online value to over-evaluate this car because we need to get rid of freaking Tesla which people are buying for no logical reasons other than it is introduced by musk. (It doesn’t mean this car is junk)

Wish I could hear the sounds but you literally talked the entire time .

Impressive but too heavy. Hopefully more reliable, durable than their ICE vehicles...

What is Germanic about this? There’s no German EV that drives like this.

You can add a sunroof to any car from the dealer and roll it into the financing.
