Hyundai Motor Company today unveiled the ‘IONIQ 5 N NPX1,’ a concept model equipped with prototype N Performance Parts, at the Tokyo Auto Salon 2024.
Hyundai Motor Company plans to enhance the high-performance electric vehicle (EV) ownership experience with N Performance Parts, which originally began in 2019 and continues to develop high quality tuning parts for customers. Continuing from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, such as Elantra N, i30 N and i20 N, Hyundai N plans to offer specialized tuning components for all-electric N models including the IONIQ 5 N.
The ‘NPX1’ concept model previews an array of N-specific enhancements that will be available for purchase from a catalogue of N Performance Parts in the near future. It features a carbon front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, rear wing spoiler, lightweight hybrid carbon wheels, high-performance brake pads and lowering springs. The concept model’s interior is further enhanced with Alcantara material and racing bucket seats.
The prototype N Performance Parts applied to the NPX1 concept will be further developed for production in preparation for sales in 2024. Starting with the IONIQ 5 N, Hyundai N will expand the availability of N Performance Parts products for all N models.
In 2024, Hyundai Motor Company will take a step forward as a leader in new tuning parts suitable for the high-performance EV era as demonstrated with the ‘NPX1’ concept model.
Not limited to tuning parts, we are also developing software customization such as sound and vehicle calibration by OTA updates which will open a completely new category of EV customization for an exciting future ahead for the tuning community.
