现代副总裁杨雄哲 (Woong-Chul Yang)近日证实，现代正在开发三款N系列高性能车型。杨雄哲表示，下一代i30将增加N版车型，该车将采用前驱，功率不到300马力。他还透露，量一款N系列车型包括一款“小型Genesis”，该车采用全驱系统。而据外媒报道，另外两款车型将基于Genesis G70轿跑车。N系列负责人Albert Biermann表示，G70将是一款全驱车型，将突出运动特性。他同时表示，N系列车型“操控性能很优异”，同时暗示该车“功率更强劲”。预计该车将搭载取自G90的3.3升V6双涡轮增压引擎，在G90上的功率为365马力，而N版车型功率将达到425马力以上。

 

Hyundai confirms plans for three N models

Hyundai Vice Chairman Woong-Chul Yang has reportedly confirmed the company is working on three high-performance N models.

 

Speaking to Auto Express, Yang said the next-generation i30 will have an N variant that is front-wheel drive and produces less than 300 horsepower. This is a tad surprising as rumors had suggested the car would have all-wheel drive as well as a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that develops more than 300 hp.

 

Yang also revealed plans to other N models including a "small Genesis" with all-wheel drive and another model he refused to mention.

 

While Yang was light on details, Car & Driver is reporting one of the latter two models will be based on the Genesis G70 coupe. As N boss Albert Biermann explained, the G70 will be a “whole new animal” that is pretty sporty in standard guise. He went on to say the N variant will be a "really nice-handling car" and hinted it will have a "lot of power.”

 

Nothing is official at this point but the magazine believes the car will likely be equipped with a biturbo 3.3-liter V6 engine. It produces 365 hp in the G90 but could produce 425+ hp in the N variant.
