We are independent thinkers who go where the research and data take us. And knowing more isn’t the end of the journey, it’s the start of a deeper conversation.
  • Speak with Courage and Conviction: Collegial debate yields conviction, so we challenge one another to think differently. Working together enables us to see all sides of an issue. We stand firmly behind our ideas, and we recognize that the world is dynamic. To keep pace with an ever changing world and industry, we constantly reassess our views and share them with intellectual honesty. Above all, we strive to seek and speak truth to our colleagues, clients and others as a trusted voice of reason.

Powered by a stereo sound source and performance-enhanced Acoustic Design Processor (ADP) it delivers an enriched sound stage that makes each journey aurally immersive.

Drivers can choose from bespoke sound modes tailored to specific moods and driving scenarios — from the motorsport-inspired ‘Ignition’ to the heritage-infused EV sound ‘Evolution’, and the futuristic sci-fi tones of ‘Lightspeed’. Each mode offers a captivating auditory experience.

Elevating the sense of performance even further is N e-Shift, Hyundai N’s innovative shift control feature. By simulating motorsport-inspired close gear ratios, N e-Shift heightens responsiveness and strengthens the driver’s connection to the car. Now fully compatible with key performance features including — N Launch Control, N Drift Optimizer, N Grin Boost and N Torque Distribution — N e-Shift ensures a seamless integration of control and power.  

Adding to the sensory experience is the N Ambient Shift Light, a unique interior lighting feature that visually cues precise shift points for optimal performance. This synchronized ambient glow transforms the cockpit into an arena where every gear change is not just felt but seen, further enhancing driver immersion.

The N Track Manager empowers drivers to tailor and analyze their on-track performance like never before. This intelligent feature allows users to create custom tracks, monitor speed data, and evaluate performance through real-time ghost car visuals and detailed lap time analysis. By offering advanced track data management, N Track Manager further solidifies IONIQ 6 N as a track-capable EV engineered to meet a wide range of performance demands.

Complementing this is the N Drift Optimizer, which offers unparalleled control over the vehicle’s drift characteristics. With customizable parameters for drift initiation, angle and wheel spin drivers can fine-tune the vehicle’s behavior to suit their skill level and driving style.

Together, these driver-focused features demonstrate Hyundai N’s commitment to delivering a versatile and exhilarating driving experience. By pushing the boundaries of advanced vehicle control software, the IONIQ 6 N opens new dimensions in driver engagement — for enthusiasts and everyday drivers alike.

In tandem with the launch of IONIQ 6 N, a range of N performance parts will be available. Drawing on Hyundai N’s motorsport heritage, these components let customers further personalize their vehicle and experience track-inspired performance on the street or circuit.

Surplus green power is converted to liquid nitrogen—stored within a dynamic air-separation unit—and electrolyzers intelligently respond to renewable power swings, dynamically optimizing energy absorption and ammonia production.  By leveraging green ammonia as a stable transport and storage medium, Envision has unlocked a practical path to scaling hydrogen across heavy industries.

The plant is powered by a proprietary AI-integrated off-grid renewable system, featuring advanced wind turbines, grid-forming battery storage, and predictive meteorological modeling. This system dynamically balances wind and solar input with electrolyzer and ammonia synthesis demands, ensuring continuous, cost-effective green fuel production without grid reliance.

“This is more than a technological milestone,” said Lei Zhang, Envision’s Founder and CEO. “Scalable, green alternatives are now real and operational. We can’t get to net zero without green hydrogen, and we can’t afford to wait. This is the blueprint for a clean energy future.”

By 2028, the industrial park is projected to produce 1.5 million tons of green ammonia per year, serving as a replicable model for clean industrial hubs worldwide.

Backed by Global Partnerships and Certification

The project has already attracted global commercial interest, including a long-term offtake agreement with Marubeni Corporation, one of Japan’s largest trading houses. The partnership will accelerate green ammonia adoption in sectors like fertilizers, chemicals, and shipping.

The facility has been awarded the Bureau Veritas Renewable Ammonia Certification, affirming its global leadership in sustainability, safety, and emissions standards.

The New Clean Fuel Standard

As the world seeks alternatives to the 5-billion-ton fossil fuel supply chain, Envision’s AI-powered green hydrogen-ammonia solution stands out as a viable, scalable substitute. The company aims to reach price parity with grey ammonia and methanol by 2028, helping green fuels become truly competitive.

Powering the Clean Molecule Revolution

Designed on a modular, replicable model, Envision’s plant can be quickly deployed globally. It’s not only an engineering triumph but a strategic demonstration of how smart systems, AI, and renewables can come together to reshape global energy infrastructure.

Envision continues to lead the transition to a world powered by clean molecules and intelligent systems, replacing fossil fuels with scalable, AI-driven, and renewable-based solutions.
