Hyundai has collaborated with drifter Keiichi Tsuchiya for a special edition of the Ioniq 5 N. The Ioniq 5 N DK Edition benefits from chassis upgrades and a more aggressive aero kit. The “high-performance parts package” will become available in the first half of 2025.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is already one of the best performance cars on the market under $100,000, yet somehow the Korean automaker made it even cooler. Hyundai and The Drift King Keiichi Tsuchiya have teamed up to cook up a special edition Ioniq 5 N DK Edition that may be the sickest Ioniq 5 N yet.

What do you think of the Hyundai IONIQ 5? Would you choose the rear-wheel drive with a 300-mile range or the all-wheel-drive with the 250-mile range?

The fun we had behind the wheel and the idea of an approachable EV track car (at $67,685) put the Ioniq 5 N over the top as our winner. Halvorson summed it up: “The Ioniq 5 N truly opens the idea of a fully electric track day to a new generation and a much wider go-fast crowd."

So, it sort of makes sense to see Hyundai want to team up with him for the upcoming Tokyo Auto Salon, which kicks off tomorrow. The South Korean giant plans on presenting a DK Edition of its popular IONIQ 5 N performance electric vehicle (EV), but it's still unclear if we'll actually see that model in production form.

The Ioniq 5 N has already proven itself to be one of the most capable EVs on the market, and the new DK Edition takes things up a notch further

The 'Drift King' Edition, developed with help from drifting legend Keiichi Tsuchiya, gets a host of useful upgrades.

DK as in "Drift King," Keiichi Tsuchiya partnered with Hyundai to bring to life an even cooler and more aggressive version of the brand's fastest car.
