Overview
- Hyundai announced Wednesday that the 2026 IONIQ 5 N MSRP is $59,900 excluding a $1,600 destination fee, a $6,300 reduction versus the prior model year.
- The 2026 model gains a native NACS charging port for direct Tesla Supercharger access and Hyundai will include CCS‑to‑NACS adapters plus a dual‑voltage Level 1/Level 2 mobile charger.
- Hyundai preserved the IONIQ 5 N’s core performance tech including N Grin Boost (up to 641 horsepower) and the N e‑Shift virtual gearbox to keep the car’s track capability intact.
- The update also adds convenience and safety kit as standard, such as a ten‑stage N Drift Optimizer, Forward Attention Warning with an in‑cabin camera, auto up/down rear windows, and a new Performance Blue Pearl color.
- The price cut follows broader moves in the EV industry toward NACS adoption and lower entry pricing, a shift that could boost Supercharger access for owners and broaden the buyer pool for high‑performance EVs.
