[@cryingbug134]

Most of ppl here didn't understand. 1. The battery performance : This 4th gen battery is purely crazy thing. It has currently the most energy dense in the world. and the electrical resistance during charging and discharging is extremely low. That's why it can finish 2laps easily. 2. Regen and cooling mystery: The Hyundai N engineer told "we discovered" not invented. while regen, it cool down the battery temperature. still i don't understand. out of box. But I think this has something to do with the extremely low electrical resistance of the battery. The regen capacity is 0.6g, which is 'hard breaking'. if you use the N pedal mode, most of technical corners r covered only with regen break. That explains Ben P has more battery left. n cold breaks. 3. How Ben P's car dances. N pedal mode is an extreme version of one pedal mode;but it doesn't stop tho. It is involved not only in regenerative braking but also in the vehicle's maneuvering characteristics. while front wheels are doing some regenerative braking, rear wheels thrust. and sometimes vice versa. It predicts and controls in real time. n... EVs r never turn off the ESP. actually can't turn it off. This is a very long story so I'll skip it. One of the secret evidence that N engineers r totally crazy...is that... while the ABS is working, it regen.

[@dfd6787]

I appreciate your clarification and details, this car is indeed an engineering marvel and a massive step forward in EVs. There is video by Hyundai engineers that explain why this regen helps a lot with keeping battery cool but the explanation is in Korean, need to read subtitles.

[@bbokdoong]

According to Hyundai, Ioniq 5N's brakes lasted much longer than their Elantra N (I30 sedan N) brakes, thanks to 0.6g regen brakes.

[@scientificenigma]

I think it’s mainly due to the really strong regen. Strongest regen out of any car so a lot of the slowing is not on the brakes. Essentially works the same as stripping thousands of pounds of mass off the brakes. Just tires still have to deal with all that.

I'm with you there. The performance and driver engagement seem to be unique to this car. Hyundai made an EV look and feel fun which is truly remarkable and a slap on the face of everyone else who decided to play safe. They just need to come up with a convincing external noise to match what the driver is experiencing inside the cabin. For most car guys, being fast alone doesn't cut it. You need exhaust sound to go along otherwise is like dancing to a great tune in public with your headphones on.

But, indeed, the way it leaped out after the corners and the way the brakes resisted fading was impressive.

27:42, M2 did a fabulous job going wide to give you some room here. Nice awareness.

[@TheCarLovingSwede]

This will be remembered as the most important EV for enthusiast ever!

[@darekmistrz4364]

Hopefully not

[@sub7up.]

It's a 2300kg suv... lets hope for more than this to be considered the "peak"of ev's... 😉🥹

[@TheCarLovingSwede]

@@sub7up. I don't think you get it. I hope so too. And of course it's not going to be the peak of EVs. Where did you read that in my comment? Just like the VW beetle or Toyota Prius are remembered as significant and important cars (even if they aren't good by today's standards) I believe the Ionic 5 N has the potential to be written in the history books as the first performance electric car that people actually like.

[@sub7up.]

@@TheCarLovingSwede Adding that speaker sounds surely blinding alot of people thinking these 9 minutte laps was anything special.. you're getting tricked by the sound just like the slot machines in a casino.. Meanwhile the silent assasins ev's that would absolutely kill this on track being labeled as boring and no emotion appliances.. 😂 Strange to see what fake engine sounds does to people.. I still think the car have alot of great features and steps being taken in right direction with ev's.. but we are just so far away to have actually track ready ev's.. 👍 Remember there is fossil cars doing 24hr races non stop driving.. this can barely make 24 minutes of driving..

[@TheCarLovingSwede]

@@sub7up. It's not about speed, but enjoyment. Everyone I've seen who has driven this car enjoys it very much. The speaker sound is not the only thing making this car special.

[@kordaxmint533]

Probably the best Misha's video, very entertaining race.

[@i3looi2]

I watched the owners video in my feed and was thinking .. damn , wish Misha would release a Ioniq 5N video. Little was I aware it was Misha : )) What a timing. ALSO the BMW driver the real MVP for making you space in that hard/heart-stop moment.

The cooling system of the motors is really something special here. During that traffic the rear temp. dropped from 96 to 86'c in matter of just seconds. 😮 Amazing.

I've rarely ever been as excited during a youtube video as during the first lap with the other driver of a dark grey Hyundai!

[@IvesvanderFlaas]

You know Misha, that feeling you had while having difficulty keeping up with the second ioniq N, everyone other than you feels like that all the time when you're around ;-).

[@bokiNYC]

😂😂👍

[@CheeseGrater.]

omg I cant think what was more entertaining, the knife edge driving in the first (2nd) lap or the near hit / strange traffic jam at the end, awesome video misha :)

[@HaloDude557]

On the second lap everyone became American and stopped yielding the left lane for faster cars

[@bokiNYC]

​@HaloDude557 He he, I can confirm - as an immigrant from Europe, the US drivers are some of the worst drivers I ever saw in my 40 years of driving, embarrassing, to say the least. Then you hear the statistic and you just can't even believe it - in the US, on average, about 36000 people die in car crashes every year!!! How crazy is that?!?

Best commercial ever! They should use this in their future takes. The EV really rocks, love it Great job Misha

[@WindmillStalker]

The styling of the Ioniq 5 in general is something I'm a huge fan of. It looks sleek and futuristic, really as if it's using design language of the future. Cyberpunk car.

[@ZesPak]

2 full laps, half an hour break sounds very reasonable on the NBR to me. People sometimes seem to forget it's a taxing 20km lap. Impressed with the Ioniq 5 N!

[@edblair5253]

Unlike other test drivers of this car like Harris or the Smoking Tire guy and most every other, Misha doesn't need the switching gears feature to transfer weight and know when to break etc... What a pro Misha is!

[@sebek_g]

N performance is doing amazing things

[@Plain_sailing]

Misha chasing the other Ioniq 5 is way more exciting than F1

[@alexbusteni]

This is one of the most intense video I had watched! Very nice Misha! Nice job for Hyundai

[@sparkplug964]

The IONIQ 5 N looks a really interesting EV and one of the first performance EV I would like to try out, that and Hyundai are one of the only brands producing some original and interesting ideas for there car designs. They really are out there trying different things and seeing what happens.

[@topgunm]

This was impressive!! Wow. I have a Plaid, and experiencing first-hand how horrible the brakes are on track (like you said after 2-3 corners - they are shot), it was nice to see an EV with brakes that actually work on track. Really nice.

[@zapfhahn6130]

You have not bought the track pack from Tesla I guess right?

[@nabushdinosaure]

Buy MPP 400mm big fella disks and Carbotech XP12 or XP20 pads, RBF660 and you will have brakes...

[@topgunm]

@@zapfhahn6130 Correct. Fun story: In Norway your product has to be like it is marketed. It was marketed as a car you can use on track, which is not the case AT ALL with stock brakes. So I have a court case against them ATM. I will know the answer in under a year. If I win, Tesla will have to buy my car back or change the brakes to the CCB brakes free of charge.

[@maxiferrari08]

​@@topgunmI hope you win! I love how they are protecting the customers against false claims

I am mostly impressed by the stock brakes. Braking performance looked great for a heavy car and it did not seem like you experienced fade after 2 back to back laps. Very nice.

[@JohnLee-db9zt]

And he didn’t utilize brake regen settings.

[@bbokdoong]

It has a very strong regen braking power.

[@RDSAlphard]

I remember in Rob Dahm's video, they were mentioning about the options on the drivetrains, and how the car was made with racing/track drive in mind, it make sense why it can lapped 2 laps in Ring without overheating on either battery, motor, or even brakes! And yea, there are torque distribution adjustment iirc.

This video was amazing and one of the best. Not only did it have the "vs" (like the 2 Honda videos) it had the intuitive explanation from the engineer Lapo, then the commentary at the end with the other drive who clearly knows his stuff as well. Watching him drive the same exact car the way he did was simply proper. Also, I'm glad you left the internal engine speaker noise on as it definitely added another layer to the video. 👍
