Gran Turismo and Korean automobile model Hyundai have a distinguished relationship, with the Elantra N TCR confirmed during the Gran Turismo World Series World Finals in Japan last year, which adopted the Ioniq 5 N electrical crossover hatchback.
This time, it seems (again left of teaser) the extra aerodynamic Ioniq 6 N shall be arriving in Gran Turismo 7.
Sharing the identical structure because the 5 N, the 6 N consists of (in the true world, at the very least) fake gearshifts, which sadly weren’t replicated in GT7 for the 5, at the very least.
