Hyundai Ioniq 6 N, £10k Japanese heroes and the best cars with single-exit exhausts
The Gassing StationShow Notes
Today's episode of The Gassing Station gets underway with a ride in Lanzante’s three-seat 95-59 prototype, the firm's first proper in-house supercar, followed by an in-dpeth review of Hyundai Ioniq 6 N. It's lighter and more refined than the 5 N that came before it, and may even be the first EV you'll want to track to a track day. A £10k buying challenge follows, featuring a Mazda RX-8 and a JDM Honda Civic Type R FD2. Finally, it’s a deep dive into the best performance cars with a single exhaust. We apologise for the lack of video on this one. Our camera overheated and stopped recording, but the audio is intact and we'll still show pictures of the cars mentioned. So stay tuned!

More from The Gassing Station
Both production versions are now out, and the public reaction could not be more different. Which ultra-controversial luxury EV did it best?
You can’t blame Renault for doing a good job with the R5, nor can you blame them for following it up with the R4, the Turbo 3E and rebooted Twingo. But now everyone wants a piece of the action, and it’s getting a bit much…
You'd be forgiven for thinking that the lightweight British sports car had gone the way of the dinosaurs, but there are still plenty of brands keeping the dream alive.
The Bentley Torcal may not be the world’s first luxury EV, but it could open the floodgates for others to follow.You can argue all day about who came up with the first, though it’d be hard to argue against the Rolls-Royce Spectre. The company was once famous for its buttery-smooth V12s now selling battery-powered coupes in droves, so it’s little wonder why Bentley has followed suite. Of course, the Torcal uses the same underpinnings as the Porsche Cayenne and Audi Q6 e-tron, and in S guise can put out up to 888hp and go from 0-62mph in 2.9 seconds. That’s supercar performance from a 2.8 tonne SUV. With the Torcal joining the Spectre in the ultra-plush electric club, it does make you wonder whether luxury buyer interest in highly-intricate combustion engines has all but vanished. Good thing, then, you can still pick up a big luxury barge with a big wafty engine for peanuts these days, with this week’s challenge featuring a V8 BMW 7 Series and a Maserati Quattroporte for well under £10k. 🏎️ Sell your car on PistonHeads auctions: https://www.pistonheads.com/sell/auctionsChapters:0:00 Intro3:51 news roundup8:24 Bentley Torcal32:03 £8k luxury barge challenge48:17 Does the Torcal look like a Jaecoo?

It’s been many, many decades, but the Jensen Interceptor name is back. Only this time, it’s a humungous, track-only V8 luxury barge. Confused?
