WILL ELECTRIC FINALLY BEAT PETROL: ALFA GIULIA QV VS HYUNDAI IONIQ 5 N?

EV Channels Review

This video pits the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio against the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N in a series of track challenges to determine if electric performance can finally surpass petrol. While the Ioniq 5 N dominated the drag race and lap time challenges due to its superior power and AWD traction, the Giulia Quadrifoglio proved to be the more engaging and fun-to-drive car, particularly excelling in the drift challenge where its RWD nature allowed for spectacular slides. The reviewer found the Ioniq 5 N's simulated gear shifts and sound to be a commendable effort to enhance engagement but ultimately felt the Giulia's raw driving experience and agility, despite its weight disadvantage and slower times, made it the more desirable car for the driver. The Ioniq 5 N's weight was a significant drawback on track, causing it to 'hop around', whereas the Giulia's lighter, more playful character shone through.
