Hyundai"s N division is currently two cars old, having made the i30N and Veloster N. Both are hatchbacks with 2.0-litre turbo engines, and their oily bits are identical. But we can expect more diverse products in the future. So says Albert Biermann (pictured), boss of Hyundai"s performance car offshoot, and with decades of service at BMW"s phonetically similar M division on his CV. "My degree of freedom here is much bigger than at BMW," he tells us. "Now M badges go everywhere in the BMW range, but when I was there I had to fight like crazy for every car. Here I am more than welcome to do whatever I think we need to do."
