Engineering Explained delves into the Hyundai Ioniq 5, a performance EV that's not your run-of-the-mill electric car. With 10 features all starting with the letter "n," this beast is a game-changer in the world of electric vehicles. Take NE shift, for example, a system that mimics the feel of an 8-speed dual clutch transmission, providing that engaging driving experience we petrolheads crave. And let's not forget about enactive sound, bringing real engine noises into the electric realm based on your speed and gear, adding a touch of nostalgia to the futuristic ride.
