Hyundai’s IONIQ 6 N Is Poised to Electrify Goodwood

If electric cars have so far conjured images of silent thermos flasks on wheels, Hyundai is about to shatter that perception with the unveiling of the all-new IONIQ 6 N at the legendary Goodwood Festival of Speed next week.

So what sets this machine apart? For starters, an entirely new suspension setup that pushes handling to the next level. A low center of gravity and bespoke tuning give the steering such crisp feedback, you’ll feel like a Nürburgring champ even in a grocery store car park. Throw in electronically controlled dampers, and you get a cocktail of comfort and surgical precision.

But that’s just the beginning. The IONIQ 6 N introduces an enhanced N e-shift system that simulates the tactile feel of a manual gearbox in every driving mode. For added theatre, there’s the ‘N Ambient Shift Light,’ which flashes when it’s time to upshift like you're in a full-on race scenario.

Feeling playful? The N Drift Optimizer is now fully adjustable, letting you dial in the slide angle to match your skills or your nerve.

Hyundai has already teased the public with a first image: a sleek, aerodynamic silhouette with wide fenders, lightweight wheels, and a spoiler that makes it clear this is no mere sporty EV, but a track-born beast.

The IONIQ 6 N proves Hyundai N isn’t about chasing numbers. It’s about making driving thrilling, visceral, and unforgettable.

At Goodwood, Hyundai will host its own N pavilion, where visitors can jump into drift simulators and chase down exclusive passes. Complete all the challenges, and you’ll earn a seat at the N grandstand overlooking the iconic hillclimb.
