Hyundai’s electric performance push isn’t losing momentum, and the Ioniq 6 N is poised to take the next step. Building on the success of the Ioniq 5 N, which proved that an electric hot hatch can hold its own against its gas-powered rivals, the new performance sedan will make its official debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed on July 10.

The Ioniq 6 N has been in the works for a few years now, with early clues pointing to the 2022 Hyundai RN22e concept and a steady stream of camouflaged prototypes caught in the wild. The first official teaser dropped in April 2025 alongside the facelifted base model. Now, Hyundai is teasing more images of the upcoming EV, spotlighting its performance-focused design details.

Sharper Looks, Familiar Shape

While the Ioniq 6 N carries over the split headlight layout and sporty bumpers from the refreshed N Line model, a few key details separate it from the pack. Around back, it sports a prominent rear wing perched above the integrated ducktail spoiler, giving the sedan a more track-ready silhouette.

A closer inspection shows wider fenders front and rear, along with more aggressive bumper inserts that hint at its enhanced performance. The teaser images show the car in Hyundai N’s signature Performance Blue paint, accented by familiar red trim. Lightweight alloy wheels wrapped in sticky performance tires complete the look.

Serious Hardware Underneath

More important changes are expected under the skin. Hyundai says that the development of the model was centered around three pillars: Corner Rascal, Racetrack Capability, and Everyday Sports Car.

Under the bodywork, expect it to share a similar dual-motor setup with the Ioniq 5 N, which puts out 601 hp (448 kW / 609 PS), or up to 641 hp (478 kW / 650 PS) when N Grin Boost is engaged. Power will likely come from the same 84 kWh battery pack used across the lineup. That should give it more than enough punch to take on the Tesla Model 3 Performance.

Besides the extra power, the N-branded EV will benefit from chassis tweaks, including a revised adaptive suspension, beefier brakes, and a more direct steering. It will also inherit a bunch of N-specific electronics such as the simulated dual-clutch automatic gearbox and the artificial sounds, focused on improving the driving experience.

Thanks to its lower stance and more aerodynamic design, the Ioniq 6 N could deliver even greater performance than the Ioniq 5 N. With the hot hatch now two years into its lifecycle, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Hyundai N debut new performance features with its sedan counterpart.

More details will come when the Ioniq 6 N makes its full debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, taking place in the UK from July 10 through 13.
