Thirty years ago I never would have believed I'd ever read an article like this in Car and Driver.
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a60659411/2025-hyundai-ioniq-5-n-quickest- korean-car-ever-tested/ or https://v.gd/rQtaLW "... the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N we just tested, accelerates like a six- figure sports car but at a fraction of the cost. Impressively, the $67K electric N's 3.0-second rip to 60 mph is just three tenths of a second behind a 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 PDK. *** "... the Ioniq 5 N is quicker to 60 mph than the BMW i4 M50 and Tesla Model 3 Performance and also just as quick to 60 as a 2023 Lucid Air Touring, with an as-tested price of $128k, that packs an extra 340 pound-feet of torque. "The N's 11.1-second quarter-mile at 123 mph is impressive too. That beats any AMG-badged EV we've tested, and it's a tenth behind the 834-hp Tesla Cybertruck Beast's time of 11.0 seconds flat. Against our favorite gas- powered hot hatches, the much heavier Ioniq 5 N destroys their quarter-mile times: Honda Civic Type R (13.5 seconds at 106 mph), Toyota GR Corolla Morizo Edition (13.0 seconds at 106 mph), and the Volkswagen Golf R with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic (12.6 ticks at 110 mph)."
