Hyundai introduced a new sub-brand 'N,' and one of its first creations is the 'N 2025' supercar. Its design is based on a futuristic car in the Gran Turismo video game and combines "sustainable technology and and race car design," which has the potential to represent future products for Hyundai's N brand.
The sub-brand will take its cues from the N 2025 concept and will follow in its footsteps with a focus on performance, lightweight materials and new powertrains. The jet fighter-like vehicle will have the world's first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell system. Each wheel will also have its own separate motor.
The exterior of the car is made from carbon fiber-reinforced plastic monocoque, which dramatically decreases the weight of the car. The N 2025 will have a low power-to-weight ratio with a low center of gravity.
