It makes use of a next-generation battery pack with a capability of round 80kWh, providing superior power density to the common Ioniq 5. It’ll have an 800V electrical structure and help charging at as much as 350kW on DC and 11kW on three-phase AC energy.
Within the lead as much as the Ioniq 5 N’s reveal on the 2023 Goodwood Pageant of Velocity, Hyundai N has been publishing a sequence of teaser movies that exhibit totally different parts of the recent electrical crossover.
