What is new in the Hyundai i30N?
According to Top Gear, Hyundai has released its first true-performance car, the i30N. Although previous attempts have been made, such as hot hatches and F2 editions of the Hyundai Coupe, none have reached the level of the i30N, which boasts around 300bhp and was developed under the supervision of a former BMW M boss. The car has been honed by driving enthusiasts without sacrificing the needs of marketing departments.
The i30N comes with features such as an illuminated rev counter, the ability to store a mix of chassis settings in one button, a manual gearbox and a handbrake. The i30N's specs include a 2.0-litre turbo engine that drives the front wheels through a standard six-speed manual gearbox.

Two specs are available: the base model with 247bhp and a full suite of adjustable driving modes and launch control, or the Performance Pack with 276bhp, a sports exhaust, a limited-slip differential for more precise handling, 19-inch wheels with stickier tyres and stronger brakes.
The i30N comes in a hatchback or Fastback form, which resembles a saloon car. The price is R 779 900.00. Overall, the i30N is a great hot hatch that is fast, fun, and capable of bringing out your inner scamp, but be prepared for slightly chunky fuel bills.
