Excellent car! I have had mine for 2 months and it is the most fun car i have ever driven. Yes it is pricey but tbh, seeing peoples faces in an RS or AMG or BMW and i disappear into the distance 😂.....in my Hyundai is so worth it 😁😁😁
The drift mode is really easy to control and so much fun as well but it shreds tyres quickly 🤯 If you have one I recommend track days to really enjoy the car....safely and legally 😉😁 But day to day it is amazing 👏 🤩
Another entertaining video delivered with no faux accent or hubris or dull jokes. That’s why people identify with you. And what an amazing car. What are the European EV manufacturers doing to compete?
This is one strange car.... At first you think £65k for a Hyundai... "No Way!".... Then you drive it and realise it is a total bargain and s real weapon on the road. Something that will whip a £130,000 Audi or even a Lambo! Add in the fact that its a massively useable family car (with room for four six ft adults) that can tow! Forget the daft Essex-Boy blue and choose the Gloss Black. I've owned three AMGs and a couple of full race track cars. So I love my petrol cars. Yet, this Hyundai still made me smile. One of the most fun cars I have driven in a few years.
@DefinitelyNotAGuru 😂😂😂 You must be more Essex-Boy than I thought... 👍 And I'm born and raised in Essex.! Seriously though the black is stunning and personally I have never wanted a black car before.
My opinion I'm afraid is a lot of these big modern cars just don't look great in the darker colours - I think it's because the design creases get lost in the dark colours and they end up looking like a big blob. Ioniq 5 (and N) is the same imo
@@jamesraisonx I was drawn to the 5N in black, as spoilers, body creases and diffusers all vanish. Red is nice but it's a 5N from 100m away... Black and it's just a 5... Unless you really know. Even the black Hyundai badges vanish. I do however, hate the amount of care and cleaning a black car takes.
The simulated engine noises might seem like a silly gimmick, but if it gives you more audio feedback about what the car is doing and what speed you're going at, then why not?
I'm also totally for giving drivers the choice! People that whine and say why make an EV make a noise, or why emulate gears - it's because some drivers that's value other things in their driving experience might want them. Turn them off if you don't want them, personally I would like the choice to turn them on on a B road blast but have them off on a motorway commute
@DefinitelyNotAGuru You certainly tried to show the practical side of the car. Its performance has been shown by almost everyone. But they totally forget it's a practical family hatchback, which is spacious and comfortable.
I love my Ionic 5N. It's literally the only one I have ever seen on the road, and can smoke anything I have seen in my town. It can be a simple family SUV that is virtually silent with tons of room, or a snorting beast with instant acceleration and gear shifts, all at the push of a button. Those who know what this car is, always do double takes and gawk at it.
Really? I’m not sure where you got that from! It’s a very special thing and I think it’s great to see a manufacturer trying to innovate with more than just the battery tech.
Thanks for the vid my friend. I test drove one of these and all I can say is wow!!! I felt like my inners were being carried in the boot, so much instant torque well done Hyundai 💪👏👏
This car does stir something in many including myself. It's just a beast with great speed and tech. The retro futuristic aesthetic is just so original. The car is deceptively big as it looks like a hatch but has suv room. It's just a mean cool looking car you imagined in your head as a kid. Jealous Jim, twice now you have had this on your channel. I think I might lose it if the crab walk comes on the next model as has been teased for sometime.
Great video 👍 I’m glad you found the seats comfortable as I’m larger build as well Big question- Are the lights good at night as I do a lot of night driving?? Thanks Paul
Hi Jim, you can always be relied on to give an honest, interesting and humorous video. A bright spark on a dull rainy day, with what looks like a super car! A bit out of my price range but thank you.
It’s Audi RS3 money. If I was lucky enough to have that sort of money to burn on a car, it would certainly be a strong contender! Great content as always, Jim.
@@ocoet3575RS3 was on Cup 2 tyres (7:35), 5N did 7:45 on street tyres. In addition the 5N is much bigger and 2 sec. faster 0-200km/h . It‘s as spacious as a Lambo Urus Performante and has the same pace.
@@ocoet3575 you’ll get to change the oil, spark plugs and clutch etc in one of those too. The best option is the one you prefer. Not too many are competing at “the ring” on a daily basis.
Had mine now for 3 weeks, and actually managed to get in 4 weeks from order due to dealer stock purchase. As a true petrol head, who has owned multiple high end performance cars from M3, RS's, AMGs and also ride motorbikes getting me away from an ICE was going to be a push. Nothing excited me until I saw a review online for this car from another well respected driving journo and without even driving it, ordered it. Have to say it's even better than I hoped. I have the matt performance blue and yes, it's not for everyone, but it's a real head turner. But from sitting in it, and driving it, it feels solid, planted and like a "normal car". Agree with Jim, playstation engine sounds at standstill sound awful but once moving give you a real engagement with the car and whats its doing. I have customised a drive mode, and have e-Shift enabled (but in automatic) and honesty, I have remind myself it's not a ICE car. The spec level on this car as standard is incredible with head up display, heated front and rear seats plus heated steering. The cameras are incredible too. Honestly, I dread to think how much you would spend in any other electric performance car to get this package and numbers, in fact, any car, would see you spending 150k+. And as for performance.....unless you encounter a V12 Lambo or stupidly tuned 1000bhp car at a set of lights or on the road.....they WILL watch you disappear! The numbers are mind boggling and the first time I did a launch with full Grin Boost, it almost made me feel sick. Almost ridiculous. And HILARIOUS! In this day and age, it's all about disrupters and for me, this is the no.1 disrupter in the EV space. But please don't buy one, as I want them to stay rare ;-)
Thanks, am I detecting you might quite like it a bit. I have an EV6 and 2 similar features often ovelooked are the 800v architecture and its very fast charging, and the heads up display, I find it annoying now to drive a car without the heads up. My days of performance cars are over, but this destroys many so called supercars.
I wonder if any other EVs will adopt this simulated gearbox? Imagine how much fun you’d have if it had 150bhp instead of 600, so you really could hammer through the gears without losing your licence?
This car is awesome. It would have been my ideal car but it was outside of my budget. Also, I was put off by the range. If the real world range had been closer to 300 miles, I might have found the money. Went with a Lexus NX450h in the end. Great car for the money, but it’s not even close to the Ioniq 5N. 😕 Maybe next time…🙏🤞
It's a niche car Jim, although it does illustrate what is now possible..... Hyundai/Kia are pushing the boundaries, and quite right too.... That's how progress and evolution happens..... Jeez Jim, when you put your foot down...!!
The Noise making equipment is why I am not buying 5N. I now drive Hyundai Elantra N Automatic loud popping. It could have saved costs to the customer. 😢 I wait for 6N. Smaller tires on the 6N. Means more tires I can buy cheap.
If BMW were to make that vehicle and enhance its interior with more luxurious finishes, they could easily charge 200 million won for it. The price that Hyundai has set is remarkably low. This is because they've utilized automated robots for production. Considering the logistics costs of shipping from South Korea to Europe and the additional customs duties, I believe they've offered a substantial discount. The price at which it's sold within South Korea is also at a similar level. In fact, Koreans end up paying more. Due to geopolitical reasons, there's a term called 'Korea Discount,' which indicates that Korean companies are undervalued. As a result, the exchange rate has also fallen significantly, showing a different aspect compared to the European economy.
Looks amazing but completely unnecessary. Once self drive comes in we’ll all be driving at the speed limit anyway. I enjoyed your drive because you’re an ordinary guy not a motoring journalist
Great fun on a track mind, I say that from personal experience 👍 I am a motoring journalist by the way, just a really unprofessional and unpretentious one. 😉
