The 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 6 N is Coming to Alberta: A New Era of Electric Performance
December 09 2025,
The wait is almost over. Hyundai Canada has confirmed that the 2026 Hyundai IONIQ 6 N is officially "Coming Soon." For driving enthusiasts in Alberta who have been waiting for an electric vehicle that doesn't compromise on soul, this is the moment you have been preparing for.
This isn't just another EV; it's a high-performance machine built to dominate everything from the straightaways at Castrol Raceway to the winding roads of the Rockies. Here is what we know about the Canadian-spec model arriving at our dealership.
Performance Without Compromise
Under the hood (or rather, under the floor), the IONIQ 6 N packs an 84 kWh Lithium-ion polymer battery capable of delivering up to 641 horsepower (with N Grin Boost).
-
Acceleration: 0-100 km/h in approximately 3.2 seconds.
-
Braking Power: Massive 400mm N-tuned front disc brakes with four-piston calipers, ensuring you have the stopping power needed for track days at Rocky Mountain Motorsports.
-
Handling: The "Corner Rascal" philosophy shines with the N Drift Optimizer, allowing you to maintain precise control even when pushing the limits.
Designed for the Canadian Driver
One of the most exciting updates for the Canadian market is the inclusion of NACS (North American Charging Standard) capability. This future-proofs your charging experience, giving you access to a broader network of fast chargers across Alberta and BC—essential for those long road trips through the mountains.
The exterior features an N-exclusive Swan Neck Rear Spoiler and a specialized N front fascia with active grille shutters, optimizing aerodynamics not just for speed, but for efficiency in our varying climate.
Tech That Connects You to the Road
If you miss the mechanical feel of a gas engine, the IONIQ 6 N has the answer.
-
N e-Shift: Simulates the jolt and rev-matching of an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
-
N Active Sound+: Delivers a high-performance soundtrack that reacts to your throttle input.
-
N Ambient Shift Light: A dedicated shift light integrated into the interior lighting, creating an immersive cockpit experience.
