Peter thank you so so much for the kind comment that means a lot to hear someone say that and I appreciate that. It genuinely is such a great all round car and your going to love it 🙌 did you by it blind as such or did you manage to get a drive yourself? What colour did you go for?
I've had mine since September 21st. You're in for a treat. I'm still discovering new things about it every time that I take it out. It's not for everyone, but it rewards you the more that you play with it. It gives back what you put in, and then some! Enjoy!
I think that’s why a lot of us car media bods love it too, it feels electric and combustion engine’d all at the same time somehow and that is epic! Truly brilliant car ❤️ thank you got giving us your first hand incite 🫶🙌👌
@PeakPerformanceReviews Thank you for the reply, I bought it blind, and have managed to get a 10 minute test drive in an area with speed cameras 😂🤣 had a delivery date now of the 28th October, I've had it Atlas Matte White with vision roof 😀 the other car I wanted was the Yaris GR but no hope of a new one
Great review, i think you got the fun nature of the 5N across really well. I've put 3500 miles on mine. Its like a e39 m5 all rounder but with r35 gtr performance, and caterham balance. its a very accomplished machine. cheers!
Thank you so so much for the kind words, please stick around we need more good people like you on here with us. That’s a spot on description for sure if I ever did hear one, it really is a great machine! I’m pushing to get one as a press loan so I’ll get even more time to spend in one 🫶 where in the world are you and what colour did you go for?
It's a handful in all the best ways, isn't it? You can get yourself into trouble quickly if you aren't careful, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Glad that you had fun with it, and it was a fun review, too!
@@cabal3747 yep that’s part of the reason I love it, I’ve always had naughty RWD cars so having a playful AWD car is the only way I enjoy an AWD platform, the fact you can dial from full 50/50 split to off and where you want is epic! Thanks so glad you enjoyed, please stick around and subscribe as we need more good people like you on here with us 🫶❤️
Wow that's a beautiful looking fun car, love the colour too, it's like the jack of all trades an superfast too if u want it to be, I would actually choose this over a Kia ev6 GT mainly for the fake sounds and gear changes etc, u can definitely have more fun in this Hyundai, great fun review too 👌👍💪🏴
Great to hear from you again John, it’s a great all rounder isn’t it and I love it so much. Thanks again for kind words John, I enjoyed this one so much 🙌
The AWD driving system reminds me of my EVOX. The torque vectoring and active yaw control. Price wise crazy expensive but the fact that cost almost nothing to track it is crazy. The only car I could compare to Ioniq 5 N would be the new AWD corvette which is not practical as 5N
Yep I agree it’s very much like that 🫶 Yeah it’s the way of the world now with cars, only 5 years ago it would have been £45kish and that would have felt like super good value but everything seems expensive now but tbh when you compare with what you get your can’t really compare, especially in Europe. Thanks for watching and commenting Hassan I appreciate it ❤️
@ I’m in the SW England. I do track days and sprints at Castle Combe. This car is awesome. On the same tyres it’s faster than a 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance. In the Great Western Sprint I took 2nd in class despite being showroom standard on its standard road tyres. Can’t wait to try it on proper track tyres (Yoko AO52).
Great to hear and thanks for letting me know that must be fun too. It’s definitely incredible and woah what an awesome achievement, just shows you what it can do! Well done for that 🙌 it’ll find some great extra speed with those tyres for sure 🫶
Yeah tbf I can’t wait to see what they do with it, was teased at Goodwood Festival of speed and it looked great so can’t wait to see how it turns out. Based on the 5N I suspect it’s gonna be damn good 🫶🙌
I said that month ago and got told that’s not the case and it very much is a Hot Hatch….. I tend to agree with you but it’s how it’s been classified ….. yep I don’t know how either The life of a car media bod is an interesting one and times 🤣
That's still about 600lbs less than the new BMW M5, and that's a sedan. But the whole hot hatch thing is just how journalists and enthusiasts are describing it. Hyundai still calls it an SUV. It's a deceptive design, though. It really does look like a hot hatch, especially in photos and videos, so it's almost shocking to see how big that it is in person. But I'm not a fan of SUVs, so I'm just going to keep calling mine a hot hatch. In some ways, it's sort of the best of both worlds.
@@cabal3747 yeah it’s like some hybrid of both I’d say I’d agree. It is big but it’s great how they have kept the weight down despite its size and what it can do as well as carry
for a country that will throw you in jail for something someone types on the internet, i guess you get a pass for blurring out the dashboard at 'higher speeds'... LOL! it's just sad that you have to to protect yourself.
To be honest most of the time in places I’m not even speeding it just takes away the ambiguity of people questioning where it is and is that speed ok there and is that speed ok here blah blah blah! It gets Jarring so I often do this, the same when I do 0-60 runs. In a world of some people that drive like maniacs and still post it on the internet I’m not gonna spilt hairs but it makes me feel better and it’s something I’ve done for a while now.
Best review I've seen of this car, mines due to be delivered on the 25th of October 👍 can't wait 🙏😂

I’ve taken it on multiple track days with no issue at all. This car is designed for it - and no, it doesn’t lunch tyres…
That’s awesome to hear first hand! It’s genuinely epic and I’m getting very very tempted to get one myself ❤️ where in the world are you Dave?

Next more powerful Hyundai Ioniq N, Ioniq 6 N is coming later 2025!. 😎

Hot hatch 😂😂😂 and I quite like EV’s. It’s a electric suv that’s over two tonnes
I said that month ago and got told that’s not the case and it very much is a Hot Hatch….. I tend to agree with you but it’s how it’s been classified ….. yep I don’t know how either
