Hyundai Launches Killer 2025 Ioniq 5 N Lease Offer for May

Hyundai's Ioniq 5 N, one of the market's sportiest electric SUVs, holds a base price of over $65,000. Drivers behind the wheel of a 2025 Ioniq 5 N receive up to 641 horsepower, a maximum torque rating of 568 lb-ft, and standard all-wheel drive (AWD). This model's range is on par with its high-performance electric SUV competitors, offering up to 221 miles per charge. Drivers can charge the lithium-ion battery from 10% to 80% in 18 minutes using DC fast charging, whereas a typical level 2 home charger will take about 7 hours and 20 minutes to go from 10% to 100%. The Ioniq 5 N's rear cargo capacity is about what you'd expect from a mid-size performance crossover SUV at 26.1 cubic feet with the rear seats up and 59.3 cubic feet with the rear seats down, and the passenger capacity tells a similar story at 107 cubic feet of total interior volume. Hyundai offers a single trim for this electric SUV, which also includes N Performance, boasting a variety of exclusive drive modes like N Launch Control, N Race (Sprint/Endurance), N Drift Optimizer, and more. Pirelli P Zero tires sit on Forged N 21-inch alloy wheels, while features like the N-exclusive front grille, side skirts, and unique color combinations distinguish the exterior. With a starting MSRP of $66,200, some may be more inclined to lease this athletic electric vehicle (EV). However, the model's previous lease price was also high at $899 per month, potentially causing some to reconsider the SUV, even without a need for long-term commitment. Hyundai has shaken up its May lease offers with a new deal saving hundreds of dollars a month for 2025 Ioniq 5 N lessees. Hyundai is offering the 2025 Ioniq 5 N at $699 monthly for 36 months and a 10,000-mile yearly allotment with $3,999 due at signing. This deal, running through May and ending on June 2, is available at a lower price thanks to Hyundai reducing the money factor, or the interest rate used to calculate the rent charge, to .00016 for 36-month/10,000-mile leases, Carscoops reports. Consider the monthly payment cost, taxes, and fees before signing a lease. Lease offers vary by metro market. Check your local pricing here. Since Hyundai hasn't changed the amount of money it's requesting down from the Ioniq 5 N's previous lease offer, you may be interested in putting $0 down, like many drivers leasing. In that case, you'd pay about $811 per month. High-performance EVs are gaining popularity, and Hyundai is capitalizing on this momentum with its Ioniq 5 N, offering a compelling balance of form and function. While the Ioniq 5 N's price reflects its cutting-edge electric performance and ability to turn heads, its new discounted lease offer makes it more accessible to other drivers who wish the lease was a couple hundred a month cheaper. Additionally, you'll get splashes of daily practicality with interior capacities on par with other mid-size crossover SUVs and exciting drives via an array of race-inspired drive modes. *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Hyundai Ioniq's global sales top 500,000 units

Hyundai Motor Co.'s Ioniq series have sold over 500,000 units globally, the group said Sunday, reaching a milestone for the first time since its launch of the Ioniq 5 four years ago. According to the company, it had sold a cumulative 514,588 units of its Ioniq series, consisting of the Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6 and Ioniq 9, as of last month. The series, which began with the launch of its very first Ioniq 5 in 2021, saw its sales gradually increase year after year, with 65,906 units sold in 2021, 114,548 in 2022 and 169,812 in 2023. Sales dropped to 121,375 last year amid a temporary drop in demand for electric vehicles, with signs indicating a potential rebound this year. Last month alone, 16,368 vehicles from the series were sold, up 41 percent compared with the same period last year. The most popular among the series was the Ioniq 5 and its high-performance version, the Ioniq 5 N, which have together sold 407,607 units, accounting for 80 percent of the total accumulative sales. "We will strive to keep up the popularity of the Ioniq series in the global market by strengthening its commercial value and expanding its market base," a company official said. (Yonhap)

Super hot Tesla Model Y Performance spotted for the first time at the Nurburgring

The Tesla Model Y received a fairly significant update at the beginning of this year and now we can see a revised Performance version will soon re-join the all-electric family SUV's line-up. Rather suitably, given its more dynamic approach, we've caught it testing at the Nurburgring for the first time. And despite the camouflage, we can already make out the design tweaks (or lack of them) that are in store. Unlike BMW's M division, Mercedes-AMG or even Hyundai with its all-electric Ioniq 5 N performance EV, Tesla doesn't go to great lengths to change the look of its more potent Performance or top-spec Plaid versions over the regular editions. For instance, we can see this test car sports an identical front bumper to the facelifted Model Y, with the new Cybertruck-inspired light signature. Advertisement - Article continues below At the rear it's the same story, and despite the camouflage aiming to throw us, we don't expect the shape of the rear light to change. Aside from an extended rear ducktail spoiler, the body of the Performance edition is unchanged over the regular Model Y. However, when this edition goes on sale, there will be some elements that'll give it away. For example, we can see the Performance has a new bespoke wheel design, wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tyres for good measure. A typical design trait of Tesla's Performance versions is red brake calipers and they are visible on the front of this test car. Plus, although we can't be certain just yet, a lower ride height is likely. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below With other editions of the Model Y, Tesla said its changes included a 'retuned suspension, offering smooth handling, added comfort, more responsive steering and a quieter ride' – claims that were borne out when we drove the facelifted car in early 2025. We expect to see similar changes in the new Performance version, possibly along with a longer range, given that the other variants also gained improved range figures, with up to 387 miles in the Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive model. There could be a boost in performance, too. In dual-motor Launch Edition guise, the upfated Model Y can go from 0-60mph in 4.1 seconds, 0.7 seconds quicker than the old dual-motor. The previous Model Y Performance completed the same sprint in 3.5 seconds, so an even lower figure would place it among the fastest SUVs in the world. Inside, the new Performance edition should follow the other revised Model Ys, featuring the same redesigned centre console with a new slider mechanism to go over the cup-holders, and a new steering wheel with 'Tesla' script. Plus, instead of having two stalks as before, the new car has just one, with gear selection being done via the central screen. The infotainment system is the latest from Tesla, although it sits within the same 15.4-inch touchscreen display. Buy a car with Auto Express.
