Hace unos meses, Samsung Asociación con Hyundai y Kia Para la integración Cosas inteligentes En coches de fabricantes de automóviles. Esta asociación ahora va un paso más allá al integrar SmartThings Find en… hyundai y Ven aquí Pronto estarán disponibles más funciones de automóviles conectados en los teléfonos inteligentes y tabletas Galaxy.
Localice vehículos Hyundai y Kia perdidos o robados con SmartThings Find
Samsung anunció que ha firmado un acuerdo de asociación tecnológica estratégica con Hyundai Motor Company y Kia Company, con el objetivo de mejorar la experiencia del usuario al utilizar teléfonos Samsung con coches Hyundai o Kia conectados. La ceremonia de firma de este acuerdo de asociación se llevó a cabo en el Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo de Samsung Electronics en Seúl, Corea del Sur.
SmartThings se integrará en los sistemas de información y entretenimiento de próxima generación de los futuros vehículos Hyundai y Kia. Si compra uno de estos autos, podrá ubicarlo usando la aplicación SmartThings. Buscar cosas inteligentes Es un sistema de seguimiento de ubicación que utiliza datos de la red Bluetooth LE de millones de teléfonos inteligentes, tabletas y otros dispositivos Galaxy para encontrar artículos perdidos o robados.
La ventaja de esta integración directa es que funciona incluso cuando la función de seguimiento de ubicación nativa del automóvil conectado no funciona debido a la falta de disponibilidad de redes celulares cercanas.
Controla los electrodomésticos desde el coche o ajusta la configuración del coche desde casa
Gracias a la integración con SmartThings, puedes configurar el aire acondicionado o purificador de aire de tu hogar para que se encienda cuando llegues a casa. Además, puedes utilizar el panel de control rápido de tu smartphone Galaxy para controlar el aire acondicionado del coche o comprobar la autonomía restante de tu Hyundai o Kia.

Chang Song, presidente de la División de Plataforma de Vehículos Avanzados (AVP) de Hyundai Motor Group, dijo:Nuestro objetivo es enriquecer la experiencia de movilidad de los clientes de Hyundai Motor y Kia brindándoles servicios personalizados que van más allá del transporte, integrando perfectamente los vehículos con los teléfonos inteligentes.”
Es fácil perder la cuenta de la cantidad de veces que el fabricante de automóviles mundial ha hablado con emoción sobre sus planes de eliminar el motor de combustión interna de su gama de vehículos.
El director ejecutivo de Nissan, Makoto Uchida, dijo que su compañía continuará trabajando para mejorar… Sólo los coches eléctricos se venderán en Europa en 2030 El año pasado, Kia anunció que planeaba vender 1,6 millones de vehículos totalmente eléctricos para esa fecha.
Asistí personalmente a los dos eventos anteriores y numerosas conversaciones que tuve con altos ejecutivos durante los últimos años me llevaron a la conclusión de que los días de los motores diésel y de gasolina están contados.
Pero qué diferencia hace un año. No sólo algunos de los partidos políticos más influyentes del mundo se han retractado de los plazos que impusieron para prohibir la venta de todos los automóviles nuevos de pasajeros propulsados por motores de combustión interna, sino que los fabricantes de automóviles mundiales tampoco han cumplido.
Stellantis, propietaria de Chrysler, Citroën, Dodge, Peugeot, Jeep y varias marcas de automóviles más reconocidas, dijo que invertirá más de 50.000 millones de euros en electrificación durante la próxima década para cumplir los objetivos de ventas de vehículos eléctricos, pero esos objetivos también han sido revisados. .

Carlos Tavares, director general de Stellantis, llegó incluso a advertir de una inminente “crisis financiera”.Matanza“Mientras las empresas corrían hacia el fondo tratando de competir con empresas chinas más baratas.
Como resultado, ha habido un cambio de discurso, con un enfoque renovado en los vehículos híbridos (aquellos propulsados por paquetes de baterías y motores eléctricos), así como en los pequeños motores de combustión interna.
Suscríbase para recibir las últimas noticias, reseñas, opiniones, las mejores ofertas tecnológicas y más.
Por ejemplo, Hyundai ha experimentado Agosto establece un récord En Estados Unidos, con iónico 5 Pero las versiones híbridas de este modelo fueron el verdadero motor del crecimiento, con un aumento de las ventas del 81%, mientras que las ventas minoristas de coches eléctricos aumentaron un 27%.
La disminución de la demanda de vehículos eléctricos puros, la feroz competencia de los modelos chinos con descuento, la falta de incentivos gubernamentales para comprar vehículos eléctricos, la amenaza constante de información errónea, la ansiedad por la autonomía y el miedo general a los vehículos eléctricos parecen estar obstaculizando el crecimiento del mercado.
Como resultado, una serie de importantes empresas automotrices han decidido frenar el flujo de pérdidas financieras (invertir en el diseño y la fabricación de vehículos eléctricos no es barato) frenando objetivos ambiciosos en materia de vehículos eléctricos.
Esto es lo que prometieron y sus nuevos planes para el futuro…

Esperaba producir dos millones de automóviles eléctricos al año para 2026, pero desde entonces abandonó sus planes de producir un SUV de siete asientos y pospuso la producción de la próxima generación de camionetas hasta 2027.
El gigante automovilístico norteamericano Ford tenía planes y objetivos ambiciosos en materia de vehículos eléctricos hace apenas dos años, afirmando (como muchas otras empresas) que sus ventas europeas serían totalmente eléctricas para 2030.
Pero una desaceleración en la demanda de su camioneta Mustang Mach-E y Ford F-150 Lightning en los Estados Unidos significó que la compañía estaba… tuvo que retirarse.
“Un vehículo eléctrico asequible comienza con una batería asequible”, dijo el director ejecutivo de Ford, Jim Farley, en el comunicado. Pero la compañía parece estar luchando por alcanzar los márgenes que necesita para calificar los vehículos eléctricos como un éxito de ventas, en parte porque ha licenciado gran parte de su tecnología de baterías en China.
La medida, que se está replicando en toda la industria automovilística, significa que China controla los precios y, tal vez como era de esperar, ofrece esta tecnología a un precio más barato a los fabricantes locales, lo que es parte de la razón por la que es competitivo al precio de etiqueta.
Actualmente, Ford está reduciendo su inversión general en vehículos puramente eléctricos, destinando parte de ese dinero a satisfacer la renovada demanda de vehículos híbridos. La compañía dice que actualizará sus planes en 2025, pero por lo demás ha puesto sus esperanzas en un coche nuevo. Una plataforma de vehículos eléctricos más asequible Que espera presentar en 2027.

Apuesta por el objetivo de vender dos millones de coches eléctricos de aquí a 2030, pero duplicará el número de modelos híbridos de su gama de aquí a 2028.
El Grupo Hyundai Motor, que incluye a Kia y Genesis, ocupa el tercer lugar en el mundo en términos de ventas totales de automóviles, después del gigante japonés Toyota y el Grupo Volkswagen.
Kia, una importante empresa mundial, también tenía objetivos ambiciosos para los vehículos eléctricos. Retroceda en el tiempo hasta hace un año en la empresa hermana Kia. Día Inaugural del Vehículo Eléctrico No se habló de coches híbridos, pero Hyundai ha reconocido ahora una desaceleración en la demanda de coches puramente eléctricos.
Durante su reciente jornada para inversores, dijo que centraría su atención en una serie de “vehículos eléctricos de autonomía extendida”, o vehículos eléctricos de batería que utilizan un motor de combustión como generador para cargar paquetes de baterías.
También habrá una serie de nuevos vehículos eléctricos híbridos enchufables a medida que la línea de productos se duplique en los próximos años, y el presidente y director ejecutivo de Hyundai Motor, Jae-Hoon Chang, afirmó que “la velocidad de la transición a los vehículos eléctricos se ha ido desacelerando”. ” y que los vehículos híbridos se están convirtiendo en “una opción principal en lugar de… una alternativa a los motores de combustión interna”.

Con el objetivo de convertirse en una marca de coches 100% eléctricos en 2030, ahora ofrecerá un número cada vez mayor de vehículos híbridos.
La marca sueca Volvo fue una de las primeras en presentar su hatch puramente eléctrico, según informó camino En 2021, la compañía anunció que los coches serían 100% eléctricos en 2030.
Pero, lamentablemente, otro fabricante se está alejando de sus ambiciosos planes y aborda un número cada vez mayor de temas relacionados con los híbridos en sus últimas declaraciones.
Su última oferta de coches puramente eléctricos, Excelente EX90Enfrentó años de retrasos debido a problemas de software y a una subestimación de las dificultades que implicaba fabricar una serie de sensores ultrasónicos, cámaras y radios. NVIDIATodos los sistemas de próxima generación de System-on-a-Chip se comunican entre sí.
Pero la compañía está en camino de ofrecer una versión puramente eléctrica de todos los automóviles de su gama actual, con la excepción de los modelos V90 y V60 que reintrodujo recientemente.
La marca propiedad de Geely, que tiene a Polestar como una hermana cercana, dice que su objetivo a largo plazo sigue siendo convertirse en una marca de automóviles puramente eléctricos, pero seguirá vendiendo automóviles con motor de combustión hasta la década de 2030.
Esta semana, Volvo reveló el modelo híbrido enchufable XC90, híbrido suave, que se ve mejor que el XC90 anterior gracias a la falta de LiDAR en su parte delantera. La contraparte totalmente eléctrica del EX90. No hay premios por adivinar cuál venderá más.
Porsche

La empresa aspiraba a que el 80% de sus ventas fueran totalmente eléctricas para 2030 y ahora seguirá desarrollando e impulsando la tecnología de motores de combustión.
El mes pasado, Porsche admitió que su transición a los vehículos eléctricos “está tardando más de lo que pensábamos hace cinco años”, según un comunicado, afirmando que sólo podrá cumplir sus promesas si existe la demanda de los clientes y un “desarrollo más amplio de la movilidad eléctrica”.
En cambio, la compañía continuará con su “estrategia dual”, que esencialmente significa avanzar en el desarrollo de motores de combustión interna en línea con los crecientes niveles de electrificación.
Esto significa que algunas de las líneas de modelos de Porsche, que estaban programadas para convertirse en autos totalmente eléctricos, ahora verán versiones de gasolina e híbridas durar más que las fechas de retiro propuestas.
Sin embargo, la medida no es sólo una cuestión de Porsche, ya que el gigante alemán Mercedes-Benz ha descartado sus objetivos de vehículos eléctricos para 2030 en favor de modelos con motor de combustión e híbridos, que, según afirma, seguirá vendiendo durante la próxima década.
Hace dos años, Hyundai presentó un concepto de superdeportivo eléctrico llamado n visión 74 Diseñado por el legendario Giorgetto GiugiarioAhora, parece que este automóvil entrará en producción de alguna forma, según varias diapositivas del anuncio de la compañía. Presentación del Día del Inversor.
en Presentación de diapositivas Al iniciar la presentación, Hyundai mostró su gama completa de vehículos eléctricos, incluidos 21 modelos cuyo lanzamiento está previsto para 2030. Junto con las marcas asequibles Casper, Hyundai de mercado masivo y Génesis de lujo, presentó un vehículo eléctrico de alto rendimiento, el Hyundai N ( Vision 74″) también lleva la marca Genesis Magma.
hyundai
“El N hereda la herencia del automovilismo”, dice la siguiente diapositiva, y agrega que es “un vehículo eléctrico de alto rendimiento que ofrece una experiencia de conducción divertida y consistente”. La marca de lujo Genesis pronto incluirá también 'vehículos eléctricos de alta gama', y tanto el modelo N como el Genesis se basarán en la gama Ioniq EV existente.
A finales del año pasado, Motor1 Los informes han indicado que Hyundai fabricará el N Vision 74 en cantidades muy limitadas, con 70 modelos de carretera y 30 de carreras para sólo 100 en total, aunque Hyundai ha negado el rumor.
El concepto original N Vision 74 prometía un paquete de baterías de 62,4 kWh junto con una pila de combustible de hidrógeno de 85 kWh con un tanque de combustible de 10 libras, para una autonomía de aproximadamente 600 kilómetros. Presentaba dos motores eléctricos traseros que producían 670 caballos de fuerza y 664 libras-pie de torsión. Hyundai parece haber abandonado la parte del concepto de hidrógeno, y el Hyundai N (Vision 74) solo se describe como un automóvil eléctrico de alto rendimiento.
Si crees que el Modelo N parece un DeLorean, entonces tienes razón, ya que Giugiario también diseñó este legendario superdeportivo de los años 80. Otros coches notables del diseñador italiano incluyen un Lotus Esprit, un Maserati Quattroporte y una cámara SLR Nikon F3.
Hyundai has been busy cementing its reputation as one of the leading figures in electric passenger cars. The small and relatively affordable Soul EV kicked things off in 2015, the Kona Electric soon followed, and then came the stylish Ioniq 6 and retro-inspired Ioniq 5. But the new Ioniq 5 N is its most fun offering yet.
There are plug-in hybrid versions of its popular SUVs, while a number of new, all-electric models have been promised in the next two years. But not content with being recognized as a manufacturer of highly competitive, electrified everyday cars, Hyundai also wants to be known as a purveyor of fun.
This all started with the establishment of its N performance division in 2012, which enlisted the help of ex-BMW engineering maestro Albert Biermann to create a performance department that could compete both at elite level motor sport and on the sale of hot hatchbacks.
The petrol-powered i20N and i30N were huge hits, but arguably its greatest achievement to date is the Ioniq 5 N. The first EV from a major manufacturer that can genuinely be referred to as a true driver’s car.

Granted, there have been hideously expensive hyper EVs and everyday cars that have exploited the performance of battery packs and potent electric motors, with the likes of Porsche’s Taycan and even sister company Kia’s EV6 GT delivering blistering straight-line speed. But few mass market models have shone when things get twisty.
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N has achieved what most automakers have so far failed to do: produce a practical, everyday EV that also happens to be a riot on the race track… but it hasn’t been easy.
Under the skin

Strip away at the Ioniq 5 N and you will see that it shares much of its basic underpinnings with the standard Ioniq 5. But it’s much more than an exercise in adding power. There are 42 additional welding points, the adhesive length is up by 2.1 meters, while the steering column has been reinforced to strengthen crucial body joints.

The 84kWh battery pack has been “meticulously tuned” to extract maximum performance and race-optimized motors now appear at both the front and rear axle to deliver an all-wheel-drive, total system output of 650hp when the temporary N Grin Boost function is activated. There’s 600-odd horses on tap the rest of the time.
As a result, the 0-62mph sprint is dispatched in just 3.4 seconds with launch mode and the overboost functionality enabled, while a top speed is pegged at 162mph – a figure that was impossible to achieve on the Parcmotor Castellolí race circuit, where I tested the car.
Of course, pure performance isn’t exactly difficult to extract from today’s electric motors, as simply adding more of them tends to see output rise exponentially. The difficulty arises when attempting to keep the weight down or, in this case, masking the 2.2-tonnes with bucketloads of innovative technology.
Fake noise

Diving into the various driving modes from the sculpted bucket seat of the Ioniq 5 N is a bamboozling and sometimes disorientating experience. There’s a large button on the steering wheel that switches the driving mode from Eco to Sport, but things don’t really get spicy until you enter the various N Modes.
It is mapped to the throttle and offers, hands down, the most realistic EV engine noise I’ve ever tried.
When activated, navigating the N Mode functionality is like customizing a vehicle in Gran Turismo – there are settings for suspension firmness, the weight of steering and throttle response, but things get even more interesting when you start exploring some of Hyundai’s in-house innovations.
The first is what the marque refers to as Active Sound Plus, which is essentially fake engine noise that is pumped into the cabin. It is mapped to the throttle and offers, hands down, the most realistic EV engine noise I’ve ever tried.
(Image credit: Hyundai)
Compared to the external burbling of the Abarth 500 e, this is a masterpiece in software design, offering realistic pops on the overrun and even a simulated rev limiter when you pin the throttle.
However, this feature really comes to life when you engage N e-shift, which is Hyundai’s simulated gear change mode. Of course, an EV doesn’t require a traditional gear box, but petrolheads love them. Thumping up and down an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission via slender paddles mounted to the steering wheel offers a visceral driving experience and greater control over the performance of a car, which is why Hyundai’s engineers have seen fit to mimic it.
You’ll forget you are in an EV after a few minutes – it’s mind-bogglingly good.
The system is an absolute triumph and goes so far as to limit power when the selected gear is too high for the rev range. Hit the upshift and torque is momentarily cut from the motors to reproduce real DCT upshifts. It’s genius.
As previously mentioned, there’s even a rev limiter. Activate N e-shift and the sound simulation when you’re on the track or tackling a twisty route and you’ll forget you are in an EV after a few minutes – it’s mind-bogglingly good.

Again, it’s worth mentioning that exploring every single N Mode, and the hundreds of permutations thereof, is essentially impossible to do in the day I spent with the car. But I got a great feel for what it’s like on both track and road.
Pop it in Eco and the simulated noises and gear shifts disappear. This is essentially a red hot Ioniq 5 with a max range of around 278 miles and enough room for five people and luggage. Granted, it feels a little more taut and firmer under-buttock, but this is a comfortable car to use everyday – quiet, refined and very easy to live with.
Start cycling through the various N Modes and that’s when it really comes to life, proof that clever software engineering combined with knowledge of the best combustion-engined cars can truly work magic on bloated, modern EVs.
Over the standard car, the rear axle features an electronically-controlled slip differential, which has allowed Hyundai’s N division greater control over the distribution of power and therefore the way this heavy beast handles when pushed. Throw into the mix a clever Electronic Stability Control and it mystically masks its mass when chucked around a circuit.

What’s more, the N-tuned braking system can handle the increased heft with larger discs and the ability to shed heat with ease. There’s also a strong regenerative braking system that is blended so well with the hydraulic brakes that it’s essentially imperceptible.
The entire braking system is by-wire, meaning there’s no physical connection between the brake pedal and the brakes themselves, but despite this, there’s lots of feel underfoot and braking, even on a race circuit, feels predictable and dead easy to modulate.
Finally, Hyundai has also ensured owners aren’t left feeling empty after a punishing track session, equipping this racy model with similar charging capabilities to both the Ioniq 5 and 6.
A special battery conditioning mode allows for rapid charging straight off the race circuit, with the vehicle taking care of thermal management to ensure the vehicle can top up in around 20 minutes to allow for another track session.
No gimmicks

Despite packing up to 650hp, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N doesn’t feel stupidly fast. Sure, there’s a N Launch Control that optimizes grip from the all-wheel-drive system to offer the perfect sprint off the line, but even that feels on par with some of today’s overtly powerful EVs – Tesla’s Model S being one.
Instead, Hyundai’s N engineers have plumped for what it feels is just the right power, as well as the introduction of numerous innovations, to ensure the vehicle is hilarious, pliable and manageable on a race circuit, without ever feeling unwieldy.
The front end is sharp and feels direct when turning into corners, while the rear wheels can be overwhelmed if pushed and the 5 N becomes as joyously slide-y as you want when all of the assistance systems are turned of.
On the subject of sliding, Hyundai has also introduced what it calls N Drift Optimizer, which is essentially a drift mode that’s activated via the infotainment screen. It might come as no surprise, then, that former Ford Performance engineer Tyrone Johnson was heavily involved in Ioniq 5 N – the man was also responsible for a similar drift mode on the Ford focus RS.
(Image credit: Hyundai)
Activate N Drift Optimizer and the system supposedly adjusts torque to the rear wheels, meaning drivers don’t have to worry so much about modulating the throttle like you would on an ICE vehicle.
I tried it and was told to turn in, pin the throttle and control the slide with steering inputs, but it wasn’t perfect. You need lightning reflexes to perform prolonged slides and the lack of subtlety with throttle inputs makes it easy to spin. But it all feels very controlled, just make sure you have plenty of space to practice.
We may well look back on the Ioniq 5 N as the car that kick-started affordable, accessible performance in electric vehicles.
Similarly, Hyundai’s N Active Sound Plus could easily be written off as a gimmick, but we found this genuinely useful both on circuit and on the road. It’s not perfectly realistic in its delivery, but its near-perfect mapping to throttle inputs and gear changes means the driver has traditional combustion engine cues to work from.
I’ve tested a handful of electric vehicles on a race circuit and almost always come away feeling slightly travel sick. It’s something to do with the brain not recognizing the sense of speed and the effect of G-force, alongside the lack of a soundtrack.
Hyundai’s solution neatly combats that, and while you can opt to make it sound like a spaceship if you really want, the traditional ‘ignition’ combustion engine emulator genuinely works, even if it is a little raucous (you can turn it down, thankfully).
A heavyweight performance
(Image credit: Hyundai)
After a full day driving the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N on both some exquisite Spanish roads and the race circuit, it’s easy to come away thinking that the amount of effort invested into making a heavy family EV suitable for high performance driving is slightly bonkers.
Why not start with a lighter platform, do away with all the software trickery and keep things Civic Type R-esque simple?
Unfortunately, weight is enemy number one in the EV world, and we are still a long way off achieving energy dense but lightweight battery packs that don’t cost an absolute fortune. Hyundai’s N division has played every card it has to disguise this and it has paid off.
The Hyundai Ioniq 5 N costs £64,956 (around $82,000 / AU$125,000), which might seem expensive on paper. But given the power output, its ability to perform on circuit and the fact that it morphs back into a sedate and silent family runaround, it feels like a very fair price.
What’s more, the innovations Hyundai has showcased here can all work on future – and hopefully lighter – models. We may well look back on the Ioniq 5 N as the car that kick-started affordable, accessible performance in electric vehicles.
Hyundai is launching a new updated version of the Hyundai IONIQ 5 and also a new model in the range, the IONIQ 5 N Line, which comes with a range of design updates, enhancements, and new features.
The new IONIQ 5 emerges in its latest iteration with a suite of upgrades that propel it further into the forefront of electric vehicle innovation. Among the most significant enhancements is the expansion of its battery capacity, growing from 77.4 kWh to an impressive 84.0 kWh. This increase not only signifies an advancement in energy storage but also translates to an extended all-electric driving range, pushing the boundaries of what drivers can expect from electric mobility.
From an aesthetic standpoint, the updated IONIQ 5 continues to make a bold statement. The exterior refinements are meticulously thought out, starting with a sophisticated V-shape garnish that adorns the vehicle’s front, complemented by restyled bumpers at both ends. These changes not only enhance the vehicle’s visual appeal but also affirm its strong SUV identity. Despite these exterior modifications, the IONIQ 5 retains its fundamental proportions, with only its length stretching an additional 20 mm to 4,655 mm, while its width, height, and wheelbase steadfastly hold their original dimensions.
You can find out more information about the new Hyundai IONIQ 5 over at Hyundai at the link below, as yet there are no details on pricing, although it is expected to be inline with the existing models.
