According to sources, primarily being InsideEVs, Hyundai has officially confirmed what enthusiasts have been eagerly waiting for—the iconic N Vision 74 concept will be entering production. This groundbreaking announcement was subtly unveiled during Hyundai’s CEO and Investor Day presentation, where the N Vision 74 was highlighted as one of the brand’s future high-performance electric vehicles (EVs). This move marks a big step forward in Hyundai’s ambitious plan to launch 21 new models by 2030, positioning the brand as a leader in innovative, performance-driven electric mobility.

The N Vision 74: From Concept to Reality

The N Vision 74 has been a hot topic among automotive enthusiasts since its debut, sparking rumors and speculation about its potential production. The confirmation of this vehicle’s future marks a turning point for Hyundai, as it blends cutting-edge design with high-performance capabilities in a vehicle that is set to make waves in the EV market.

While Hyundai has yet to release specific details about the N Vision 74’s production powertrain, the industry is abuzz with speculation. The original concept boasted a staggering 671 horsepower from a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain. However, given the current state of hydrogen infrastructure and adoption, it is widely believed that Hyundai may opt for a fully electric drivetrain, which could make the vehicle more accessible and practical for a broader market. For now, according to InsideEVs, it could be a combination of a an electric drivetrain and a hydrogen powered ‘unit,’ or fuel-cell stack at the front.

Production Numbers and Performance Expectations

Early reports suggested that Hyundai might produce the N Vision 74 in very limited numbers, with only 100 units planned. These reports hinted at a split between 70 units for road use and 30 units dedicated to racing. If these production figures hold true, the exclusivity of the N Vision 74 could allow Hyundai to retain the hydrogen powertrain, creating a unique niche in the high-performance EV market.

Performance-wise, the N Vision 74 is expected to be a powerhouse. While some sources indicate that the production version could push out 800 horsepower, others, such as The Korean Car Blog, suggest a slightly lower figure of 775 horsepower. Either way, the N Vision 74 promises to be an incredibly fast and thrilling vehicle, staying true to its concept roots.

Anticipated Production Timeline

As for when we can expect to see the N Vision 74 on the road, Hyundai has not provided a specific production timeline but some sources expect the real deal in 2030. However, it’s rumored from some sources that production will kick off in 2026, with research and development already in full swing at Hyundai’s Namyang development center. Given this timeline, it’s only a matter of time before camouflaged prototypes start making appearances, giving us the first glimpse of this highly anticipated vehicle in action.

A New Chapter for Hyundai’s N Division

The confirmation of the N Vision 74’s production marks an exciting chapter for Hyundai and its N performance division. As the automotive world shifts towards electrification, the N Vision 74 represents a bold step into the future of high-performance EVs, blending innovative technology with the thrill of driving. Enthusiasts and industry watchers alike will be keeping a close eye on this development, eagerly awaiting more details as Hyundai prepares to bring this concept to life.
