For 650HP, Tropheo RS tires and not even full lap this is not Impressive at all.
But I know that this brand have lot's of fanboys and will cry about my statement.

considering its a magazine time and considering the heavy weight its certainly not bad,
im not crying about the statement, but it is a shame that the speed it was only able to reach was 260 kph with 650 hp, but electric

I can't help but wonder: is ioniq 6n nearly identical to 5n, excluding the tires? If it is the case, we can say this 10 second gap is what divides Corsa and Trofeo RS. Because both power and weight look similar iirc...

yep, exactly right. same drivetrain i believe, with same power and torque and extremely similar weight. there is also the conditions factor (idk as i dont have these issues yet) but it is fair to assume that a lot of the 10 seconds is trofeo rs vs corsa.
probably not all as i think there is some minor fettling in the suspension and chassis, but i do wish they did something with the 260 kph speed limiter, and perhaps chucked out some weight.

even 5 years ago if u told me a hyundai was capable of a sub 7:40 lap on the ring, i would've laughed at your face, yet here we are now
