Hyundai i30 Cars
The Hyundai i30 is a popular hatchback that offers a combination of style, comfort, and performance. It is available in three trims - the entry-level i30 S, the mid-range i30 Elite, and the top-of-the-line i30 N Line. All trims offer a spacious cabin with ample legroom and headroom for passengers.
Under the hood, the i30 S comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 120kW of power and 203Nm of torque. The Elite and N Line variants come with a more powerful 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that generates up to 150kW of power and 265Nm of torque. Both engines are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission as standard, but the N Line variant also offers an optional six-speed manual gearbox.
In terms of safety features, all trims come with a range of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) including forward collision warning with autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane departure warning with lane keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control.
The i30 also offers impressive fuel efficiency figures - ranging from 6.2L/100km for the entry-level S trim to 7.5L/100km for the N Line variant.
When it comes to driving dynamics, the i30 is well-suited to New Zealand's varied road conditions. Its suspension setup strikes an excellent balance between comfort and agility while its steering response is precise and predictable. The car handles well in corners thanks to its firm chassis and sport-tuned suspension.
Overall, the Hyundai i30 is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a reliable, practical hatchback that's also fun to drive. It's packed with features that make it suitable for everyday use while still offering enough performance to satisfy enthusiasts.
