Hyundai is shaking up its 2027 electric vehicle lineup: Here’s what’s changing

Hyundai’s US electric vehicle lineup will look a bit different in 2027, including the new IONIQ 6 N, a new range-topping IONIQ 9 trim, and a handful of minor updates to the IONIQ 5. 2027 Hyundai IONIQ 6 N Hyundai announced its 2027 model-year changes on Wednesday, including the new IONIQ 6 N and a few slight changes to the IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 9. While Hyundai discontinued the standard IONIQ 6, it added the high-performance IONIQ 6 N for the 2027 lineup. The IONIQ 6 N is Hyundai’s second performance EV, following the IONIQ 5 N. Powered by a dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain, the electric sports car delivers a combined 641 hp and 568 lb-ft of torque. Hyundai said the IONIQ 6 N can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds, beating the IONIQ 5 N at 3.25 seconds. Like the IONIQ 5 N, it also includes fun added features, like N e-Shift and an N Active Sound+ system that simulates the sounds and sensations of a traditional gas-powered sports car with an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. 2027 Hyundai IONIQ 6 N (Source: Hyundai) It uses an 84 kWh battery that provides up to 245 miles of pure electric driving range.

Like Hyundai’s other electric vehicles, it comes standard with a native NACS charging port and a CCS adapter.
