We\u2019re over halfway through the year, but Hyundai just made the 2026 Ioniq 5 N<\/a> official, and good news: it\u2019s way cheaper.<\/p>\n

The new starting price for the Ioniq 5 N is $61,500, including the $1600 destination charge. Compared to the 2025 model, that\u2019s a $6300 discount. Such a price drop sounds tantalizing, but remember that folks were taking advantage of the \u201clease loophole<\/a>\u201d up until the end of September 2025 that allowed dealerships to pass along the full $7500 credit to lessees in the form of a reduced lease cost. That said, there\u2019s no guarantee a dealer had to do such a thing, so the real reduction in price from Hyundai here is still a big deal, particularly for those who would like to buy instead of lease.<\/p>\n

In addition to the lower price, the Ioniq 5 N<\/a> has a few notable updates for 2026. Every other version of the Ioniq 5 already made the switch from the CCS port to NACS<\/a>, and now the 5 N completes the switchover by adopting the NACS port. Hyundai says it\u2019s including a CCS-to-NACS adapter for both Level 2 and fast charging.<\/p>\n

There are some slightly more exciting improvements made, too. Hyundai says its N Drift Optimizer now includes 10 selectable stages, and Performance Blue Pearl joins the exterior color palette (previously, Performance Blue Matte was the only blue). Plus, the rear windows now have one-touch up\/down, and a camera-based forward attention warning system is added to the suite of driver assistance systems.<\/p>\n

An on-sale date still wasn\u2019t outlined in Hyundai\u2019s announcement, but look out for the 2026 Ioniq 5 N in dealerships soon now that pricing is official.<\/p>\n

A Michigan-born car nut and racing enthusiast, Zac Palmer is talking about or thinking about cars somewhere. He bought his first when he was still 15, a 2001 Acura Integra GS-R that still resides in the garage today. It’s now joined by a 2004 Porsche Boxster S, and there will be even less practical additions to follow. Palmer worked at both Autoweek and Autoblog before joining R&T.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We\u2019re over halfway through the year, but Hyundai just made the 2026 Ioniq 5 N official, and good…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":88669,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[5838,3091,25697,295,294,30324,293,1679,9631],"class_list":["post-88668","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hyundai","tag-electric","tag-ev","tag-hatchback","tag-hyundai","tag-hyundai-group","tag-hyundai-ioniq-5-n","tag-hyundai-motor-group","tag-performance","tag-suv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88668","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88668"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88668\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/88669"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88668"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88668"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88668"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
