- The non-N model has HTRAC all-wheel drive.
- Rear propulsion is provided by EM17 M17 permanent magnet synchronous electric rear motor.
- Integrated drive axles are found in other Kia and Genesis versions of this platform; meaning that the drive axles are integrated into the motor and there is not a separate divorced flange.

- There are 42 chassis welds and seam sealers to match, to stiffen the car to cope with the extra torques.

- There is an active grill shutters for aero, and a black rear wiper fluid housing.
- It has N Launch Control, and an N Active Sound engine sound system with three settings.
- For the breaking test, it stopped in a short distance, but you can feel the weight of the vehicle.
- N Torque distribution enables control of power from front to rear, similar to DCCD in a Subaru STI.
- There is an N Race for track driving and it contains a pre-programmed circuit.
- There is an N Drift Optimizer setting.
- A full charge at level 1 is two days, level 2 is 7 hours 20 min, and level 3 is 18 minutes.

- It contains a small hatch to allow fire fighters to snip power lines.
- The review gave the vehicle a 9.0 bean score, an 8.0 cookie score, a 5.9 wrench score, an 8.0 squid score, and a 10 Penguin score.
- 10/10 every single time, this thing is astonishingly fun, and its neet and different and they nailed it.
- Its difficult to frown while driving this thing and is like a videogame.
