2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 N Active Sound + Simulated Exhaust Sound Demo

The 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 N stands out in the electric vehicle market, particularly with its Active Sound and simulated exhaust sound features. This vehicle includes a variety of powertrain sounds that can be piped into the cabin, offering an immersive driving experience. One such sound mimics a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which, despite some critiques about its quality, adds a unique dimension to the driving experience.

A key feature of the IONIQ 5 N is the N E-Shift, which tweaks the powertrain software to simulate the feel of an internal combustion engine with a dual-clutch automatic transmission. This feature not only changes the auditory experience but also alters the car's dynamics, including lurches, power peaks and valleys, and simulated gear changes that can be felt through the 'exhaust' with snaps, crackles, and pops. Additionally, drivers can use regen paddles on the steering wheel as faux gear-shifters in N E-Shift mode, enabling them to 'rev' the motor and experience the car's reaction to these inputs. This feature is especially enjoyable on a race track, enhancing the sensory experience of driving the IONIQ 5 N.

I dont know why, but the sound of ”changing gears” is so satisfying. Definitely most interesting EV at the moment.

[DaTwinkie]

Finally a decent video showing all the different sounds. Short and to the point. Thank you.

[Brancovtn]

So awesome. If we are going electric, this is the direction I'd prefer.

Finally a decent Simulated Exhaust Sound in a eletric car

[Lnmoto]

Ignition reminds me of a car on gran turismo

[tomekv]

And now let Asetto Corsa community mod this one and we will have really decent and amazing sounds :D

[DanielGjrTing]

If you don't make any sound then you might as well make all the sounds. Awesome!

I choose Evolution so It feels like I'm driving the Hyundai N 2025 VGT Gr.1 that I always drive in GT7 but in real life.

[Dankboi]

Idk why people hate on this feature. Looks fun to me

[whitefrme]

Wow. It does sound good. Even thought it's electric. Finally a good electric car for us to enjoy.

[TheLentastic]

This is exactly the video I was looking for. The first two modes are great.
Every journalist so far agrees and most commentators are just EV haters.

[Guuzaka]

I like ignition mode the best. 👍🏾 Hyundai did a fantastic job with even going as far to add downshifts. ⚙

[xooxander]

When we will be able to download sound mod from internet, trust the community, It could be fun

[lewisjohnson]

Evolution sounds great, like a motorbike.

[SINGH-ing]

So you can hear it on the outside too or just inside the cabin?

[PahaLukki]

Evolution sounded the best! Interesting concept, can you switch it to D mode for automatic still?

[MarcoSebastiánOlveraRodríguez]

Evolution sound like a Gran Turismo Sport/7 race car. I Love it.

[barmetler]

I was hoping that in evolution mode, part of the whiny sound would go up with speed and not just rpm, so that it sounds more like straight cut gears in a sequential gearbox! I love that sound. Hopefully you can create custom sound profiles if you maybe connect with some kind of diagnostic tool and you know what you're doing

[richfromtang]

Cool, but can you turn it off, tho? Can you make it quiet in the cabin, or is there always fake noise going on?

[MrFabianschmidt]

Great sound, but I still want the BMW Z1 01:15 ;)
