402 PS Hyundai iMax N - the "drift bus" for the track

Recently updated on November 3, 2019 at 01:45 am

The N-performance Department of Korean manufacturer Hyundai has set up a spectacular bus. Leading under the direction of the tuner Skunk Works does one have the "Hyundai iMax N World Time Attack Drift Bus“Created with 3,5 liter V6 BiTurbo and crazy 402 PS & 555 NM torque! Compared to the factory 2,5-liter diesel variant, of course, more than just an improvement. But if you are happy to be able to put the bus together in the online configurator on the Hyundai page, we have to disappoint you. The iMax N Drift Bus is just one Single copy! It is supposed to show that Hyundai can also build a potent transporter like Ford did with the “Transit Supervan” or Renault with the “Espace F1”.

still with room for 8 persons

The iMax N has rear-wheel drive and can still maximally 8 persons (Grand Starex, i800, H-1). Actually, the Koreans would be the perfect alternative to the current BMW M5 F90 Ringtaxi on the Nordschleife as we find. But he was not created for that! Rather, he will start tomorrow at the 3,93 kilometer-long Sydney Motorsport Park in Australia (formerly Eastern Creek Raceway) with eleven bends in Eastern Creek (Suburb of Sydney) to World Time Attack Challenge show what he can. And the technicians behind the project are talking about that N Performance Blue painted bus, especially with full load, an almost perfect weight distribution of 50: 50 has. However, we doubt that you will participate in the challenge with full hut. It would look funny in any case!

Rear wheel drive for smoking tires

And the inmates also have a lot to discover. After all, there are sporty N-Performance seats in the front of the cabin and the small steering wheel comes from the Hyundai N-Performance forge. And even the second and third row of seats are still upholstered in high quality velor and leather. This could be because of the 842-liter load floor even carry a lot of equipment from the pit lane and if necessary, change directly at the track a bike. And the Skunkworks team has not just stuffed a bigger engine and new seats into the van. A special sports suspension with electronically controlled dampers has also been installed and a large N Performance brake system with red painted brake calipers ensures a species-appropriate deceleration. It hides behind the 19 inch forged wheels of the standard i30 N which are powered by corner carving rear axle locking differential.

Drifting is the specialty of the iMax N

And finally, the body is also adapted a little to the sportiness. The front apron lost its fog lights and also received a distinctive front spoiler with a red accent. For this purpose, the radiator grille is darkened and equipped with an "N badge". And there were also changes to the rear. Here, the factory apron was given an aggressive rear diffuser that houses round tailpipes of a sports exhaust system on both sides. In addition, a central LED tail light in the style of a Formula 1 racer and the roof spoiler was specially created for this vehicle. The rear view is rounded off with an "iMax N" logo on the tailgate. If we receive more information about the single item in a timely manner, there is of course an update for this report.
