Hyundai’s N lineup is growing. The 2026 Ioniq 6 N packs 641 hp / 478 kW and 568 lb-ft / 770 Nm for 0–60 mph in 3.2 seconds. The hydrogen-hybrid N Vision 74 will be limited to 200 units with 800 hp / 597 kW. The gas-powered Elantra N continues, while rumors swirl about a turbo upgrade. High-performance electric and hybrid N models are on the horizon.
Last fall the local N owners got together and did a scenic drive of western Mass' route 2. Everything went perfectly for this, it was an absolute blast. Gorgeous day, the trees starting to change colors, 55 cars showed up, had some good conversations and everyone seemed pretty chill.
It was fun start to finish. I had to drive almost two hours just to get there and it was fun getting closer and seeing more and more Ns as I went. On the drive a couple folks going the other way figured out what was up and gave us supportive honks. And at the end we had food trucks and I got to chat with an Elantra TC mechanic to talk about what does and doesn't change for that car.
