Play Video: 2025 Hyundai IONIQ 5 N Review | Consumer Reports

To the outside observer, the Ioniq 5 N is a quiet EV whose owner is doing their part for the environment by using electricity to power the four-door hatchback. Meanwhile, inside, the driver is enjoying all of the features that come with a high-performance vehicle: “shifting” the gearbox at the redline, and enjoying the sounds of the “exhaust” burbling and popping on downshifts and upshifts. But none of this is actually happening because the Ioniq 5 N is fully electric: what it does have is one of the most impressive synthesized driving experiences of any electric vehicle, making it feel inside the cabin like you’re driving a rip-roaring gasoline-powered sports car without broadcasting any of that to the outside world.

Scammers create fake profiles on social media. They claim they’re military servicemembers to get your trust, but what they want is your money. But if that love interest says they can’t meet you in person, asks you for money, or you find their picture in several profiles – you know it’s a scammer. Don’t send money. Instead, cut off contact. Tell the social media platform, dating website, or app right away.
