In a thrilling showdown captured by Larry Chen, two roaring cars engage in a fierce REV battle, generating a synthetic engine noise that echoes through the air. The Hyundai ionic 5n takes center stage, showcasing its extreme "time attack" version meticulously developed for the treacherous Pikes Peak challenge. With a wide body kit, massive splitter, and aerodynamic elements inspired by legendary Pikes Peak vehicles, this beast is a sight to behold.
Under the hood, the Hyundai reveals a complex system of three-way shocks, a sound generator for race car noises, and an upgraded sound system aimed at scaring away animals and alerting spectators of its impending presence. The all-wheel-drive setup with front and rear motors, coupled with a stock battery surprisingly resistant to overheating, promises an exhilarating performance up the mountain. The team's attention to detail extends to the car's charging capabilities, regenerative braking force, and custom-built roll cage ensuring safety amidst the high-speed chaos of Pikes Peak.
As the discussion unfolds, the team delves into the car's aerodynamic enhancements, including a flat floor, diffuser, and the unique aerodynamic effect of its shape on the race's outcome. From sliding skirts to front wheel vents, each modification serves a crucial role in maximizing downforce and performance. With a nod to the past and a vision for the future, Larry Chen's video captures the essence of innovation and engineering excellence in the heart-pounding world of motorsport.
