FIRST DRIVE: 641bhp Hyundai Ioniq 5 N eN1 Cup!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We’re big fans of Hyundai’s Ioniq 5 N hot hatch, because it’s about the most fun you can have in an EV. Fake gears, 10-second bursts of extra power, and a drift mode, all sound like gimmicks, but together they make for one engaging hot hatch. But what if the 5 N was turned up to 11?
Enter the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N eN1 Cup race car. It keeps the production 5 N’s battery and motors - so it’s still good for 641bhp. But out goes anything superfluous, and in comes a roll cage, a racing seat, slicks, and a whole lot of aero add-ons. Weight goes down 10%, grip goes way up!
All the novel gimmicks - like N Drift Optimiser - are gone, because this is a focused race car. Yet at the same time, Hyundai wants this to be an affordable race car, so prices will start under €100,000.
It’s starting a one-make championship in Korea, too, and it’ll be a live test-bed as Hyundai hopes to find a path towards making electric racing fun. Teams will be able to choose the sound their cars make, and taking an idea from gaming, race officials can punish you mid-race with less power for over-aggressive driving.
Will it work? Top Gear Magazine’s Deputy Editor, Ollie Kew, has been to find out…

Men are crazy about such medals, even if they are not worth it. The higher the number of wins, the louder the sound will be. Hahaha.

Top Gear, This is great! I liked it and subscribed!
To all that don’t understand; the sound is not only for amusement e.g. most others that only makes some noises. Here it’s helping on the racetrack to have hints on the right speed etc. Had experience on Anneau du Rhin with my Kia EV6 AWD and was highly concentrating on HUD and track markers to get the right speed. Without serious sound generator in the 5N it’s harder to go to the limits and you mostly are too fast!😅

Of course, all these parts going in and out and up and down and round and round would be noisy and vibrate, but don’t worry about that. And of course we’d need lots of adjustable gearing as it doesn’t produce much torque over most of its speed range, but don’t worry about that. And of course it will produce noxious fumes, but don’t worry about that. And if we do a really good job we’ll only waste about ⅔ of the energy in the flammable liquid, but don’t worry about that.

From what I heard, the 21-inch tire was difficult to obtain for racing and expensive, so I chose 18 inches because it didn't fit the n-cup, a popular race, and when I installed 18 inches, it interfered with pure brakes and changed brakes.
@MrTempatel
29 күн бұрын
I think that's due to performance reasons. 18inch wheels are much much lighter than 21s. Up to a point that even on a public road switching from 21inch to 18inch gives 10% of range
@jeenhur8804
17 күн бұрын
I guess: For using various racing tires, for lowering hight, for more high safety by limiting top speed and by increasing acceleration. 10% of mass is reduced so the drag time (0-100km/h) may be 3.0x seconds.

18inches is the bigger slicks you can get in most brands. And it is a “cheap” tire. Bigger than that I only know one or two brands from US.
