This car is basically a driving sim that you can daily and track simultaneously.

After seeing early previews of the simulated sounds at a standstill, I was audibly laughing at Hyundai for the nonsense. But I must admit, after hearing it in drive and seeing the admittedly impressive fake shifts complete with realistic power climbs and cuts, I must say this gives me hope for the future of enthusiast electric cars. Truly seems to be heading in the right direction!

I love the N Shift sound or whatever it's called that it makes! It's interesting how when standing still and you rev it, it kinda sounds like a PS1 game sound but when you're actually moving, it sounds realistic enough that if you're going over 120mph, this would make for a good audible cue to understand when you brake and when you lift off oversteer!! Love that!

@matthewaltenore628 Ай бұрын

NGL, I was very skeptical at first about if I was going to like the Ioniq5 and its whole FAKE ENGINE AND BURBLE sounds, and if it would have the same feel as having a real gas powered car, but boy was I wrong, it looks a ton of fun, it has all of the features, and I feel like they're not trying to make it something that its not, but also something that's not just a regular EV like most other EV's. Which is why I feel like I'm more inclined to buy something like this, then other EV's on the market.

Not sure if this was already asked/answered, but how is the power above 80ish mph? Watching the speedo I feel like I see the usual single or dual motor feature of a higher speed drop off.

@GC-jx1eq Ай бұрын

The main objective of Hyundai's N sector is ultimately "fun", and that is why they put fake noise or simulated gear things that are supposed not to exist (actually "opposing to the concept") in EV -- they are making driver engage more. Of course, I still think they need to offer customized noise tuning SDK/toolkits (since they have speakers controlled by software) though.... Currently all the sounds are pre-made and fake-ish, which is not very fun but funny.

I don't know if I'd buy it though because without a charger at the track, very very close by, or you are going to transport it on a truck you likely aren't going to get much time out of it. The one I go to, I go through about 1 1/2 - 1 3/4 tanks of fuel in about 1 hour and 45 minutes of driving. I don't see an EV coming anywhere near that amount of time.

I honestly hope these "engine sounds" (especially the first one) are meant to be either A) a nod to '00s Game Boy Advance racing games, or B) a joke on how engine sounds are unnecessary in a vehicle. Otherwise, I can't believe how a whole team of people listened to that, thought "Yeah, this emulates an ICE perfectly and sounds cool" and green lit it into a production car. Did someone explain to them what an engine sounds like via typewritten letters?

Waiting for that M EV. It will look hideous. It will be a monster.

Despite the really cool tech, I think I would rather have the new Model 3 Performance, especially for the cost and available tax credit. If I was in the market for a performance minded EV anyway. Not there yet.

@@Chris-hw4mq I don't know anyone arguing global warming isn't happening. The argument is to what extent humans are responsible and whether it's a global emergency. I think it's mainly a tool used for political power and expediency. Piling on more national debt and ppl dying in poor countries from our reaction to global warming is much more problematic than the warming itself. Technological advancements will solve the issue before it's ever a serious threat to humanity anyway. We already have the technology to scub the atmosphere if it ever came to that.
