Does the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N drive like a performance car or VIDEO GAME?

The Ioniq 5 N is here and Hyundai is pushing the EV limits. On the outside you will be greeted by wide fender flares, 21in wheels, performance brakes and extra aero. On the inside you will be welcomed by Hyundai's performance seats and special steering wheel. Powering the 5 N are (2) motors that produce over 600HP.

I’m surprised with this review Joe. Most of the reviews I’ve seen on this thing have been have been really positive. Plus you failed to show us the different sound modes and an ON THROTTLE with the ngb enabled! I’m a die hard car enthusiast and I think Hyundai have smashed this one out of the park..

Viva the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N! Love the way it looks

[jraheemjefcoat]

I actually love the side body lines that Hyundai is doing. It's unique, bold, and futuristic. Reminds me of a Lamborghini Urus. If i was a car designer, I would work for Hyundai or KIA. They seem like they have to have the most fun designing their cars.

Joe's checklist for a great car. Historical significance, functional vents, ICE engine with rear wheel drive, manual transmission.

That all black Ioniq 5 N is one bad mamma jamma!
I think the $67k is pretty fair to be honest.
The car looks like it means business and it backs it up with performance!
Not only that, but the tech is insane and fun! There's even practicality too.
At some point in the future I'd like to get an electric daily driver so I can drive my Scat Pack on the weekend, and this is definitely on my short list with the new Charger as well.

Manual seat controls for a 67k EV is insane lmao. Even with the performance numbers im not seeing anything worth more than 50k on this lack luster interior.

[muellerpk]

Damn, that thing sounds hella good lol

[tommygtr]

Joe, You spent the whole video complaining about the sound. You can change/adjust or silence the car. There's also space-age sounds (which I think are cool). Too bad you didn't show us that feature. When I was a young Lad I loved loud rowdy cars, now being older, the quieter the better.

[hyunhosuh]

I think your review was little bit biased or prone to what you want to think of because you did not provide a certain data like 0-60
which is less than 3.5 and you too much focused on mimicking sound system which this car does not represent as a distinctive 
feature. Nobody can get the car with 3.5 second for 0-60 in this price point. In addition to that you failed to provide all available comparisons in this segment at the market. You lost your mojo and so much biased prone to your private appetite which does 
not make any sense. I was little bit disappointed and I lost little trustiness on your review. Comparing to other reviewers, which 
majority give more positive direction but what you brought here does not justify neither does explain as an experienced reviewer.
Also there is a certain price gap between AWD of Ioniq 5 limited which priced around 58000 with 4.7 or around 5 second for 0-60 
and this price which is 10000 price difference, then you had to complain over ioniq 5 for the price. I want to let you know that 
many automobile companies charge at least 5k only with those brake system. You lost your objectivity on what you are supposed 
to. Sorry Joe.

[crouchb]

they should've promoted this in black. I'm really liking black cars now

[Toki-eyly]

I might get hate for this, but at 67k there is nothing in the market that is close to this vehicle. People might argue for the Tesla performance but having driven both, I rather much have the Ioniq 5N. The Tesla Performance is great but it lacks some aero flow and some design flaws which leads to scraping your bottom when cornering. The next competitor would be the Lucid or Porsche and those are already out of this world with the pricing. If I had to make the switch to electrification this would be my first choice.

[joshpacker]

Hyundai needs to release better price points. but noneless hyundai has improved

[DarkJediChrisG-]

If you've watched Raiti's Rides for as long as I have, you would know that Joe Raiti and EVs go together, just as well as bleach and saying 😉

[toocalm]

Lol, he drops the "The Matrix" easter egg...nice one Joe 😁

[NebulaIsTaken]

Honestly, this is a good sign for future performance EVs. The price is definitely steep, but it pays off in the right ways. For example, the new Model 3 Performance is cheaper but the brakes are garbage, and you can’t actually track it without seriously risking hurting yourself or others. The N division is killing it, and as tech improves, I think we’ll start to see some great competition from other auto makers.

[cancel.lgbtq.]

Bring it down to around 50k then you can compete with Tesla. 67k is a lot of cheese for giant microwave.

[AB-hiru]

The Ioniq 5 N should be EV of the year and Porsche and other sport EVs need to copy this tech.

[davidp]

Hope you're all staying safe, Joe.

[pjkr]

I'm leaving man united game and refresh my mind with this beauty IONIQ 5N.
I'm still loving more towards EV6
