HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 N – 2024 WORLD PERFORMANCE CAR

THE ROAD TO WORLD CAR 2024 and the WORLD CAR FINALS POWERED BY BREMBO concluded today with the live announcement of the winners in six award categories at the New York International Auto Show.

The HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 N is the 2024 World Performance Car.

This is the seventh award win for the Hyundai Motor Company in the World Car Awards' 20-year history. In 2023, the Hyundai IONIQ 6 was a triple winner in the World Car of the Year, World Electric Vehicle and the World Car Design of the Year categories. While in 2022, the Hyundai IONIQ 5 was also a triple winner in those same categories.

'We are thrilled and honored to receive the prestigious World Performance Car award for our IONIQ 5 N,' said Jaehoon Chang, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company. 'This recognition is a testament to Hyundai's commitment to pushing the boundaries of electric performance and innovation. It is truly gratifying to see our efforts rewarded once again at the globally renowned World Car Awards. We are proud to continue our winning streak and solidify Hyundai's position as a leader in the global automotive industry.'

A jury of 100 distinguished international automotive journalists from 29 countries selected the winners by secret ballot based on their evaluation of each eligible vehicle as part of their on-going professional work. The vote results were tabulated by KPMG.

The HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 N was chosen from an initial entry list of seventeen (17) vehicles from all over the world then a short list of three finalists as announced on February 26th, 2024 at the Geneva International Motor Show (GIMS). The 2024 Top Three in the World finalists are the BMW M2, the BMW XM and the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N.
