Holy batman!
Only £65k for this 650hp 0-62mph in 3.4 second car. For comparison the EQE 53 amg is nearly twice the money at £115k
I must test drive it when it's available.

UK prices confirmed for 650hp Hyundai Ioniq 5 N
The future of the hot hatch starts here - it's yours for the price of an AMG A45...

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup Drops Weight, Adds Race Car Bits
The Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup car is also getting a lowered sports suspension and slick tires.
Hyundai held its N Festival in South Korea last night to celebrate all its racing achievements in 2023. It did more than that since the highlight of the event organized in Seoul was a preview of an electric race car. Revealing images of the Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup were shown, along with some juicy technical specifications. The real thing wasn't brought onto the stage because it's still being engineered, with the goal to finish development work in February 2024.
Featuring an aggressive body kit with massive air intakes, a large diffuser, and a rear wing, the Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup sits on 18-inch wheels wrapped in 280/680 R18 slick tires. It's getting a stiffer suspension setup lowering the ride height by as much as 2.75 inches (70 millimeters). Stopping power is supplied by six-piston front and four-piston rear brake calipers, and to quickly lift the car, it has an air jack. Hyundai is giving it a six-point, FIA-compliant roll cage and is also upgrading battery protection.
The most substantial modification will be represented by a weight loss estimated to reach as much as 551 pounds (250 kilograms). Full details have yet to be disclosed since the Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup is still being developed, but we do know the side and rear glass is being replaced with polycarbonate. Although the street-legal Ioniq 5 N debuted back in July, we still don't know precisely how much it weighs. However, it’s estimated to tip the scales at 4,650 lbs (2,109 kg). That seems plausible considering the dual-motor regular model weighs 4,519 lbs (2,049 kg) for the SE trim and 4,546 lbs (2,062 kg) for the better-equipped SEL.
Additional hardware changes include an adjustable suspension with spherical-joint pillowball mounts to stiffen the connection with the chassis. It also has disconnectors in case the battery runs too hot. Each team that will race the Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup will have its own fake engine sound. In addition, the drivers will be allowed to simulate gear changes by using the N E-Shift function, which mimics the behavior of an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The Ioniq 5 eN1 Cup is more than just for show since it'll actually go racing. If everything goes according to plan, it'll hit the track as early as May 2024 in what Hyundai refers to as Korea's first one-make EV competition.

Not according to @Sunny
According to him an EV shouldn't have gears. And he's the authority on EV here, so.......
Anyways...This Ionic 5 N is absolutely the EV to have for the money they ask. There is no comparison with ANY other brand in this price range whatsoever in my mind. It's simply a fantastic semi sport car/hot hatch/whatever this is.
For this money you get cheapest crappiest BMW i4....LMAO no comparison.

I had no idea that you could trim this much weight from an EV.

Sure. So what if if perfectly mimics the real thing.
And steering with drive-by-wire is not fake? You state your arbitrary definition as fact.
Or driving with ESP on? Very fake? Automatic gearbox? Fake!
It's real if it works. And it works so it is real. And I believe it will be the way to go for many people in the future. Software shifting will be a real actual thing. No doubt Porsche and BMW will have this too for their upcoming EV sports cars. They better.
The CC850 even has a full working mechanical transmission/gear shifter. All 'fake' but utterly brilliant:

I think you and me have very different definitions real and fake. All the things you described - drive-by-wire, ESP, automatic gearbox are all functional. Not an add on effect to mimic something else. It might take away from the driving experience, but do functional things like make a car safe on the limit, or keep the engine in the right RPM band automatically and more efficient.
The fake shifts are just that - fake add on meant to mimic shifting. It doesn't really functionally do anything besides appeal to nostalgia.

What the bet it has no back seats, audio, thinner glass, and they’ve replaced body panels with carbon or aluminium

I think you and I most certainly do, which is ok I guess. You are fully allowed be the grumpy grandpa.
Did you even watch vids of this car? It's far more than just fake shifting, it makes a convincing package and better than a true EV mode which it of course has too (nice for a traffic jam)
Best EV on sale by a country mile.
