The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N will handle the phenomenon in the United States

The famous Pikes Peak climb is the next challenge that the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N will face in the SUV/Crossover category.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N she wants to create a “bad” image, of a naughty girl who defies all the rules that apply today… in the world of electric cars. With its insane performance and especially its brilliant artificial gearbox technology (assisted by the artificial sound of the warm engine), the South Korean is currently receiving all the votes in the tests of the automotive press.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N has found a solution to please fans of sports cars and the illusion is amazing. Therefore, we must make it known and quickly, before the competition copies the idea.

In the United States, there is nothing better than experiencing a legend: a road winding for 20 kilometers in the mountain, Photo Pikes. Or, in English, Pikes Peak. The start is given at a height of 2865 meters and the finish is reached 1440 meters high, at 4305 meters. During the ascent, the heat engines lose almost half of their power due to the decrease in oxygen. A problem that leaves electric cars… like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N precisely.

So the Korean will benefit during the entire climb from its 641 horse power. As a reminder, the record of the event has been held since 2018 by the electric model Volkswagen ID.R in 7 minutes, 57 seconds and 148 thousand. La 102e edition du Pikes Peak International Hill Climb will start on June 23, 2024, where two Hyundai Ioniq 5 N models will be entered to take the record in the production SUV category.

One of the two cars will be awarded to legend Paul Dallenbach, an 11-time winner of the event. Finally, two other cars, for fun, will be handed over to the rally driver Dani Sordowhich is driven by Hyundai inside WRC World Rally Championship.
