Hyundai unveiled the ‘IONIQ 5 N NPX1’, a concept model equipped with the N Performance Parts prototype, at the 2024 Tokyo Motor Show.
Hyundai Motor Company plans to enhance the high-performance electric vehicle (EV) ownership experience with N Performance Parts, which originally started in 2019 and continues to develop high-quality tuning parts for customers.
Continuing with internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, such as the 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 features a number of N-specific upgrades that will be available for purchase from an N Performance Parts catalog in the near future. It features a carbon front splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, rear spoiler, lightweight hybrid carbon wheels, high-performance brake pads and lowering springs.
The interior of the concept model is further enhanced with Alcantara material and individual racing seats.
The N Performance Parts prototype 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 will step forward as a leader in new tuning parts suitable for the era of high-performance electric vehicles, as demonstrated by the ‘NPX1’ concept model,” said Joon Park, vice president of N Brand Management Group.
“We are not limited to parts tuning, we are also developing software customization such as sound and vehicle calibration through OTA updates, which will open up a whole new category of electric vehicle customization for an exciting future for the tuning community.”
