Hyundai N

The 2022 Hyundai Kona N has appeared on social media a week before its official unveiling. The small performance SUV from Hyundai was posted to Instagram by user bindin, and appears to be the very same Kona N spied during a film shoot in March 2021. The Korean car brand has confirmed a 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder will power the Kona N, sent to the front wheels through an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The 2021 Hyundai Tucson N Line has been unveiled, offering buyers a sporty exterior and interior inspired by the company's 'N' performance arm. The changes are predominantly cosmetic, with Hyundai adding deeper front and rear bumpers to the Tucson N Line, as well as a marginally taller and wider grille than on the standard model – with the 'parametric jewel patterns' gaining additional edges to create more elaborate reflections.

The next-generation Hyundai i30 N may see the introduction of a new turbocharged 2.3-litre engine. According to Korean newspaper Kyunghyang Shinmun, Hyundai is developing the new 2.3-litre turbo powertrain with a 7000rpm redline for its future performance 'N' models. This isn't the first time rumours of the engine have surfaced. Back in April 2020, a mid-engined Veloster-based track car was caught on a tow truck in Korea, with the prototype showing 'MR23T' graphics.

Hyundai N has revealed the RM20e at the 2020 Beijing Auto Show, providing a glimpse at what we can expect from the company's performance brand in the future. Using a Hyundai Veloster N body, the RM20e has a mid-mounted 800-volt electric motor sending 596kW and 960Nm to the rear wheels. Power comes from a 60kWh battery pack. While no official numbers have been provided, Hyundai says the RM20e is expected to do the 0-100km/h sprint in less than three seconds.
