Hotter Ioniq 6 N is in the works
Here we see it on the track
This is our best look yet at the N version of the Ioniq 6

Hyundai’s Ioniq 6 is one of the most unique-looking vehicles that you can buy today, and it’s going to become even more striking once the facelifted version is revealed with its two-tiered front fascia. This will coincide with the launch of a performance-oriented version expected to be called the Ioniq 6 N, which was recently spotted doing laps of the Nurburgring Nordschleife.

The camouflaged prototype in this video posted by KoreanCarBlog TV gives us our best look yet at the hot Ioniq 6, and we can make out most of the changes. We get to see the car being driven aggressively around the Nurburgring Nordschleife, showcasing its swiftness and surefooted handling around the famed track's over 100 technical turns—it looks like the track is its natural habitat.

Trying to mentally peel away the camouflage, we can just about make out the revised front design, which will likely feature a slim full-width light bar and separate light clusters below. That’s similar to the latest Kona crossover, and it will completely transform the look of the Ioniq 6. Whether it’s for the better, you can tell us in the comments.

Like any true performance car, the Ioniq 6 N will have an increased track width to improve cornering stability and widened fenders to accommodate wider tires. It will also feature more prominent side skirts to tie it all together and help give it a more planted stance. The front bumper looks like it has a big rectangular intake with slats that is not covered by camouflage, so this will likely stay the same in the final vehicle.
