The sleek EV6 GT goes head-to-head with the retro-futuristic Ioniq 5. Which one do you like best? Let us know in the comments!
Expected the ioniq to win. But again why do none of you guys turn all regen off on ev6 gt and stick maximum power on. It makes a difference. Ev6 GT can get 3.2 seconds 0-60 with multiple examples of this.
They are both rapid!! I have the AWD EV6 GT Line S and with all its creature comforts it will still do for me
For a better assessment of the true strength of I5N, you guys should take it to the track - it's an EV designed for peak track performance - that's where you'll really see it shine. Stock I5N can do 2 laps of Nurburgring sub-9-10 min without brake or engine overheating and zero powerloss. For comparison, Model 3 P on Nurburgring started to lose braking and significant loss of power (throttled down due to battery pack overheating) after 4-5 minutes (see Misha Charoudin's two videos - night and day difference in the track between the two)
i agree
The M3P they took to the track was the Euro version which is using the inferior LG battery packs. The American version uses the Panasonic battery back that delivers more power and better cooling performance. His brakes going out must have been because they were already cooked or didn't have regen on in track mode, not sure. Either way, I haven't seen an American M3P on the Nurburgring so I'll hold my judgement until then.
Lol, panasonic or lg won't make any difference. The i5n annihilated the model s plaid going up pikes peak.
The Misha video had two Ioniqs, one with regen and one without. Both did spectacular but regen did slightly better.
@@RubenLoz웃기려고 쓴 글인가?
It’s not surprising that the Hyundai won. It was developed after the Kia. They were able to benchmark the EV6 GT and improve upon the performance of the Ionic 5N.
The Ioniq 5 reminds me of the 80s and early 90s. In the movies, there was a style of Futuristic design that was used in Hollywood. This car looks exactly like a Future Car, and I dig the style. Dunno if I could ever consider paying that much money for a small electric hatch, but kinda cool as a novelty.
It’s not really small.
This thing is larger than a rav4.
I was shouting "USE THE BOOST!!" finally I could relax at the end when he did use it 🤣
Finally a comparison between the EV6 GT and the Ioniq 5 N. The I5N definitely should win, but it was still fairly close. I'm still very happy with my EV6 GT. I like the looks more. It does have some features the I5N doesn't have in the USA like the HUD. And it's been out for 2 years, which means you can get one for a significantly lower price. The EV6 GT refresh is coming later this year too, so it will be interesting to see how the I5N stacks up to that one.
In Germany I can find a gt for 47k vs 65k for i5n so yeah it's a bonkers deal. Deal-breaker for me is losing the ventilated seats and not having adaptive dampers (I think?).
Also here we have HUD and pano roof on the i5n so very little drawback aside from price. When it comes down to 55k ish it'll be an insane deal.
@@AdrienPierret The EV6 GT has adaptive dampers. You can adjust it in the settings too. For the ventilated seats, I came from an EV6 Wind and honestly I don't miss them. The alcantara in the EV6 GT doesn't really get hot. It's been 95-105 degrees where I live for the last month and the seats haven't felt hot at all. I've been pleasantly surprised. But yeah, for the price the EV6 GT is hard to beat.
Still love our EV6 GT to bits, but the 5N party piece is the reason I would switch over which is the engagement factor of the simulated shifting. It’s the reason I also have a modified MK2 Focus ST with the 5 cylinder Volvo engine and manual gearbox. Can’t beat the driver engagement I get in that.
When is someone finally going to do a drag racing video on the new Mach e gt it’s funny when it had the 5 second power limit everyone wanted to race it a against a “real mustang “ but now that it might be faster no one wants to race it
Wow, that ionic 5N is no joke. Wicked fast. 💨 💨💨💨
Exactly the race I am looking for. Well, I got the EV6 GT and I do think about getting the 5N. But after seeing this, I think EV6 is fast enough. I can hold on until the next generation. Thank you for doing this race.
The remodeled 2025 EV6 will come with a larger battery; the same one found in the 5N. You might want to hold off on the 5N until we see if there's an improvement in the new EV6 GT's performance. I'm personally holding out for the 2025 EV6 GT as I strongly feel if will out perform the 5N in both handling and acceleration.
What do you think about how much money we’ve lost :((, have you seen what the EV6 is worth :( more than 50% less after only one year
Your EV6 is definitely fast enough. Dont need 5N
Ev6 looks better to me, N is fun though, we can wait
@@Lexusupra You deemed the purchase price (MSRP, or more?) acceptable at the time, right? What changed? Is paying full price for an I5N acceptable now? Barely used GTs with warranty are selling for ~$40k, which is closer to 35% depreciation. 20% for the first year and 15% for the next few years is typical for vehicles, so it's reasonable to expect the same to be true of the I5N as well. No money is "lost" unless trading for incremental change, which tends to be a poor value proposition. Paying MSRP for a GT, selling it at a significant loss to pay MSRP for an I5N, selling that at a significant loss to pay MSRP for whatever is next, etc. seems to meet the definition of insanity (for those with limited disposable income, anyway) but certainly creates opportunities for those who are a little more patient. Regardless, enjoy your GT, which is no less awesome than the day you drove it off the lot!
The Ioniq is the first EV im interested in, the Kia is cool too tho.
These are the only EVs that actually kinda excite me
How about that price?
@@stephbarbershop2518 there is no cheap and fast EV. Cheap EVs aren’t fast. Fast EVs aren’t cheap.
@@PigglyWigglyDeluxetesla M3P cheap and fast.
Glad that I am planning to buy the Ioniq 5 N.
Hard to admit ur Ghey. Good job
Don't buy it for less than $10,000 off MSRP. They aren't selling well.

@@TheMadmax0609 nope, only at a discount off MSRP, plus $10,000 off.
I like 5N features, but I would go for the EV6 though, its a more mature futuristic look.. a sleeper "family SUV"... ioniq5N just screams challenge me on the road.. definitely more enthusiast crowd.
6:59 I hope you simply scripted that "boosting" moment because it doesn't make any sense waiting for so long to activate the NGB button and actually press it when is the least effective. You should have used it at the start of the drag race, and after turning on the hairpin for maximum effect, not just at the end of the race. In launch control mode it doesn't do anything but after the hairpin it should.
That's why i hate these types of shows. They do some of the STRANGEST things.
I love the look and functionality of the ev6 like I can take my family out for a little camping trip with gear in the back
Make a u drags with the ioniq 5 N and the new 2024 model 3 performance.🙏
The model3 would win
@@sungbaek3526 in a straight line! Yes when braking and turns apart of the race, I would put my money on the ioniq 5N.
@miguelcontreras9349 in an u drag race unless the model3 driver doesn't know what theyre doing, the tesla should win. And if we're being real, on shorter tracks like autocross, the m3p probably will put down a faster laptime. Longer tracks though, the 5N would take it
Yes you right, you can drive Nurburgring whit the ioniq 2 laps whitout any problem, the Tesla model 3 performance 2024 can only do half a lap then the brakes is on fire and the battery is overheating after 70% of the lap @@sungbaek3526
There's a video on YT of a guy running 10.9s @ 123 in a 2024 M3P and it was his first time ever on a strip.
👀 just what i was searching for... 🎉 thanks... Was so curious though still a EV6gt fan. The slightly restyled EV6 is good looking too. Both are great vehicles.
Kia is sharper looking.
Ioniq 5N has very sporty tires infact 😂 It is no where close to anything on that EV6 GT. The car handles way snappier too.
Quietest race on earth.
Boring
Ya wanted to complain it was too noisy thru headphones.
I actually watched on mute........😅
Pretty close and the Kia has a lower price so value and performance a toss up!
These cars aren't even close in performance. The i5N is way faster around a track and overall a way better car. If you want a grocery getter the ev6 is a decent choice but the N is in a different league
@@jstrout626 Actually, they ARE close in performance, which is unsurprising considering they share the same platform. HMG wisely covered all the bases by optimizing the I5N for track performance, the GT for road performance, and the GV60 for luxury. Looks are subjective but align with those goals as well. Which car is "better" overall depends on the owner's objectives and preferences. The GT undeniably is a decent "grocery getter" compared to most of the vehicles on their list (league?) while still being ranked an impressive #16! HMG is knocking it out of the park.
@@jstrout626 If looking for pure performance yes. But that does cost more. I would not begrudge anyone for taking the cost savings instead.
People say Ev's are fast but boring and can't brake or handle well. 1 year and 20K miles and it still doesn't get old for me. Am I taking off from every light in my EV6GT like when I first got it, no, but when I want to get somewhere quickly I can. I want the Ioniq 5N but I would have to trade my Kona N and I still love the little ICE just hate putting gas in it every week and changing the oil. Waiting for a better deal on the 5N but with all the great press they will eventually sell out the first run. Most dealers only got 1. I hope Hyundai keeps making them.
I was waiting for this one a while ago 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome race
Ionic 5 N versus 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance next!!!!
The EV6 Just looks so much better than the Ioniq. I'd take it first, maybe some model year they'll tweak the motors and give it more power.
Your guys husbands won’t let you get a Ioniq N because of the looks? Dang man that’s tough.
Nice cars, but for me model 3 performance
Please test the new 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance but don’t put it in track mode or it will kill the power. Navigate to a Supercharger about 7-10 minutes before the run and it will go as fast as 10.75 @ 126+ mph for the 1/4 mile.
They are going to do exactly the opposite of what you just said. They are anti tesla so you know how that goes.
The EV6 is a sharp looking car. Almost as sharp as my Widebody Challenger Scatpack which I bought because I couldnt find a Kia dealer who didnt have their heads up their.......
Wow Hyndae and Kia are embarrassing those who made fun of them years ago. This is insane
I'm actually looking for a 5N vs the new Model 3 performance, can you guys do that? The M3P is the best value performance EV by far.
I wouldn’t call a car “performance” when it cuts power and completely loses brakes after not even a 1/3 of a lap at the Nurburgring. The Model3 is still a one trick pony.
@@sebajfobi I saw the video and the car should be named: ''3 minutes of performance''
Idk why y'all like to use the footage from the race in the intro. Pls Quit spoiling it.
That’s not the race, just a slow stroll to show the route. In the intro you can see the Ev6 ahead which it never was.
Exactly!!! I already see the outcome before the race even starts…
@@rudygabrielperdomo9523 you scan still clearly tell who's winning lol
Just goes to show there's a lot different between the brands though both are Hyundai Motor Group.
faster than a 500hp mid engined corvette. damn.
Well the Kia has around 600whp.
@@origaminefretami3480and 50% more weight
and seats 4
Smaller lighter wheels and tires do help the GT a little bit
Ionic 5N V. New MP3!
THAT WOULD BE GREAT!
Since one of the guys last name is Weaver, please rename this show or channel, "Leave it to Weaver." Plz.
🥱
More U Drags! Please..
Excited to see how the new model 3 performance does against these
Both way better than the low testo Model Y.
Model Y out sold those two by a really really wide margin... Model Y is better in ways that matter more.
@@nguyep4 mainly because its a Tesla, way more hype because of Elon. That will change once people recognize other brands more.
@@origaminefretami3480 that is all you tribute to Tesla, hype? Not on merits such as Tesla is the only EV that get OTA updates and free new features? How their superchargeing network is better than most, if not all? It efficiency 4.5 miles/kw? Carwow got 4.7 miles average after driven from full charge to zero.
@@origaminefretami3480tesla has the best software of all the EV’s and charging network nothing to do with Elon hype. The only negative on Tesla is the build quality it’s a hit or miss with the panel gaps. The Koreans wow you with their tech but their software is no where near Tesla.
@@tommy13965 If the charging network will be usable for everyone - which will be the case since its more profitable -, there wont be anything left that sets Tesla apart from other brands that perform better.
EV6GT will do the claimed 3.1 0-60 but only in max power mode. 5N is definitely the track car
Use the I5N boost mode early on and its not even close.
Jonathan was even flexing his guns and leaning forward but he still lost. Dang. 🤣 Ok who does the same? Admit it.
Did they use the boost button?
Incorrectly yes
Next Ioniq 5 N vs Model 3 performance.
Wow. It looked to me like the I 5 N experience more understeer in the first race than the EV6.
Tough choice! Maybe I get both.
From all the videos I've seen, the Hyundai has remained undefeated ...
should have also tried the ioniq5N in emulated ICE mode to see how much slower it is
Wish I could afford the Ioniq 5N but its way out of my price range. Maybe once depreciation takes hold in a few years I'll be able tot land one. lol
Yam miss a standard ICE tho right?
I’d like to see the new M3P and how that stacked up
Ioniq is so Crazy Car 🤩🔥💪I love it
weird saying the ev6 is a sleeper when it looks like something out of blade runner lol. I personally don't like the look at all. Love the ioniq 5n though. I think it looks amazing and retro.
I love my EV6! I'd also love the N!
Should hve used ngb at the start
...why? you wouldn't want to end up like the Lotus at Goodwood...bur since there are no hay bails so I guess it would be ok.
@@K03sport because u get Max power going and potential able to use Max power coming back! Faster time!
@@afrikengunnerit’s use is limited. Being that you don’t have to brake again after turning around on the course, I’d say that engaging the boost is best done after coming out of the turn on the back straight.
@@Cgee3 I am fully aware of its use and how long it takes to reset, brakes at full regen and car set to n sprint and not track will give u Max power and wipe 2sec off that time
Can you guys do a race between the Hyundai and the new Tesla model 3 performance?
actually, ioniq5n is better than m3p
i dont know about u drag, but in straight drag, ioniq is faster
and mp3 cannot finish the race in Nürburg
The EV6 GT does have a launch control. Granted, it's a bit complicated to get into it, but it does exist.
The Ev6 GT does not have launch control. It has max power mode and drift mode, but does not have launch control. I would use it daily if it did
You need to do these tests all in the most performant modes the cars have, quit dumbing the suspension down for your comfort, i want raw maximum perf mode numbers from both.
EV6GT needs to be in 0 regen and Drift Mode ;> You can also get a EV6GT for 28K ;>
“Boostin!” lol
Turn your regenerative braking to zero not level 3
How about the Hyundai up against the M3P ?
They had the evgt in power saving mode 3 it slows the car down a lil to charge itself
Why the Ioniq 5N with 630 cvs (and 650 with NGB) cant be faster than new TM3P with 510 cvs? Weight?
Why not use the N button from the beginning. Not very well made
I guess is because in launch control mode it gives maximum power anyway but they should have used it specially after the hairpin corner, not almost at the finish line 🤦🤦
@@yonnymestampo8389 because it requires a 10 sec recovery after using it, and that’s what happened after the LC. The 10 sec have started right after the 1/4 mile.
Ioniq 5N the best
A very quite fast race except the turns..
Im impressed and looks fantastic; Im all on EV's BUT I really miss the sounds... the angry noises from an ICE engine and exhaust.
Then the 5N is exactly for you.
The Ioniq 5N makes the exact same noises.
Dater is important!😂
looks like someone missed a shift... it was the tires...all the tires. put both on sport cups 2s and report back...
Surprised that the EV6 is being described as "the sleeper" styling wise. I find it ungainly at best. Also, it's kind of a huge car with a cramped cargo area.
It's because it has a kia logo slapped on it
The evs are quick not fast 🤦♂️
nor are they furious
Hyundai Ioniq 5 N should win
It did
Love the N but 50k 😮idk bout all that
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N has more horsepower and wider tires, clearly, the Ioniq 5 N will win
the KIA looks SO MUCH better i may even own one (i'd debadge it though)
It'd still be more exciting watching a Corolla and a Kia Sorrento Race.
I'll take the EV6 over the Ioniq any day.
Freaking finally!!!
The ioniq has 650hp not 601 hp ???
How is it 2025 but it's available in 2024?
That's how cars have been since forever. Kinda like how Madden 2025 will come out in fall of 2024
You need to dub in exhaust sounds.

Two different cars one is for track sec is for travel and city and still have ball's catch i5n no bad Kia bravo for others fans of Elon fake musk EV for model 3 performance don't trying compare vs track i5n eating alive any model 3 for i5n best results hard push is record 0-100 3 sec 0-200 10-11 sec. For ev6 gt 0-100 3.1 sec
who'd want to race an ev on track? lol. How many laps you gonna get?
@@ka124as With 5N 2 laps on Nordschleife, that's about distance of 14 laps on Laguna Seca without overheating.
Зачем сравнивать 2 одинаковые машины одного и того же производителя 😂
The Hyundai appears to have more than 25hp over the Kia.
Well Hyundai just defeated itself ❤
N vs nsx!!
I don't think that would be very interesting. The NSX would destroy the N
@@TIGFAD did you see times on the board? 33 to 33.2. If they used NGS better it might even be better. The best of Japan vs best of Korea. Sounds kinda Amazing.
@arunkumar194912223
Oh wow, I didn't think it was that close! I just remember the NSX quarter mile being in the 10's, but I guess it's not as big a difference as I thought
To the manufacturers and their engineers, I give them all A+'s. They are implementing, with success, the whimsical dreams of some bloviating governmental bureaucrat, owned by the Chinese, who is worrying about a crisis that doesn't exist. I could go on for about as long as it takes to charge an electric car, but...
Insofar as the general shift to electric cars is concerned, I call bullshit... its a prime example of a centrally planned, government mandated novelty. Why? Batteries and the electrical grid. Presently, there are rolling brownouts merely because people run their home air conditioners! What happens when electric cars are sold in really large numbers? Battery efficiency drops dramatically in cold weather. Just when will we double or triple our generating capacity? I don't see people lining up to have coal-fired or nuclear generating stations built in their backyards. BTW, China has a monopoly on materials for battery production. Let that sink in.
You only get 500 N boosts for every Hyundai car. Then it is shut down
Good lord! Would you rather have painfully awkward or heinously over styled?
The Kia is way better looking!
Before watching- Sorry kia, I think you're being sent to the slaughter here.
9:10 interesting. It looks like most of that is down to better grip. At the end of the quarter do the acceleration curves have a similar slope?
Want to see this vs the new Tesla Model 3 Performance
But on a track, that would be funny, seeing the Tesla burning through his brakes after five corners
@@hasangenc2922 It won't.. you are only braking once hard before the hairpin. At the end of return run, it's not hard braking. It's only an issue on a real track use where it's sustained hard braking. For street and u-drag? It's nothing
Model 3? you mean Y. M3 is a sedan.
drag and udrag the model3 should win
@@uludak8468 M3 is also a Bmw, not a Tesla.

I have a 2023 EV6 GT and I put it on a Dyno last month and at the wheels it did 506whp and 664wtq.
If you do the math to calculate the "crank" HP to convert it to 575hp, that is 730tq.
I do not believe the torque figure that Hyundai/Kia provides at all
I took the GT and saved 18 G's 🤷♂️
Yes I like the N better, but not that much.
So you have to ask your wife what you can buy. Glad I didn't go for that $hit. Men you really need to know who is the prize, it's the men.
