2026 Hyundai Ioniq 6 N price and specs

Hyundai’s quickest production car yet – the Ioniq 6 N – has arrived in Australia, where the mid-size electric sports sedan has been priced from $115,000 before on-road costs.

First revealed at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Ioniq 6 N joins the identically priced Ioniq 5 N electric SUV in Hyundai’s high-performance electric-vehicle (EV) stable, and shares many of its components.

The new Ioniq 6 N rides on the same E-GMP underpinnings as the Ioniq 5 N – and the Kia EV6 – and has an identical dual-motor powertrain, but scores a reworked chassis, revamped battery system, and unique aerodynamic body upgrades. 

Compared to the Ioniq 5 N, the Ioniq 6 N can also travel 39km (487km total) further on a single charge courtesy of its sleeker bodyshell.

Handling upgrades over the standard Ioniq 6 include revised, low roll-centre suspension geometry, stroke-sensing Electronically Controlled Suspension (ECS) dampers, an electronic limited-slip differential, and and 20-inch forged alloy wheels wrapped in N-specific Pirelli P Zero 5 tyres.

Diagonal chassis bracing between the boot and rear bulkhead increases torsional stiffness by 20 per cent.

The Ioniq 6 N is all-wheel drive by default, but up to 95 per cent of the available power can be sent to either the front or rear wheels using the N Torque Distribution (NTD) tool.

Further, the N Drift Optimiser lets the driver set up initiation angles, the amount of wheelspin and other parameters for drifting (only on closed roads, of course). 

Stopping power is provided by four-piston monobloc front calipers gripping 400mm front rotors, teamed with 360mm rear rotors.

Inside, the Ioniq 6 N brings manually adjustable bucket seats, an N-exclusive Pasubio steering wheel, Alcantara and leather trim, Performance Blue accents, aluminium pedals, and additional centre console padding.

Drivetrains and Efficiency

Like the Ioniq 5 N, the 6 N is powered by a dual-motor all-wheel drive electric powertrain comprising a 166kW front-axle motor and a 282kW rear-axle motor to produce standard combined outputs of 448kW/770Nm. The full 478kW and 770Nm is only available when the N Grin Boost function is activated.

Being an EV, the Ioniq 6 N doesn’t have a traditional transmission. It does, however, feature N e-Shift, a system that’s designed to replicate the experience of a close-ratio gearbox through simulated gear shifts and the related power fluctuations.

The Ioniq 6 N’s 84kWh battery features a new temperature management system designed to adapt to different driving scenarios, including drag, sprint or endurance racing on track. When depleted, the battery can be replenished from 10 to 80 per cent in as little as 18 minutes when plugged into an ultra-fast DC charger.

Servicing and Warranty

Hyundai Australia backs its model range with a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty (if you service on time at a Hyundai dealer) which includes non-competitive, recreational driving on racetracks.

The high-voltage battery is also covered for eight years or 160,000km.

Servicing is required every 24 months or 30,000km, which comes first. The first two services cost $645 and $667 respectively.

Safety

The standard Hyundai Ioniq 6 has a five-star rating from ANCAP, which was awarded back in 2022. However, this rating is unlikely to apply to the N, given the Ioniq 5 N didn’t inherit the five-star rating of the standard Ioniq 5.
