New Generation Hyundai i30 - Coherent and Timeless Design
The combination of excellent functionality such as roominess, good visibility and comfort is complimented by a sensuous and confident expression of design. In addition to Hyundai’s trademark Cascading Grille, the latest generation i30 five-door and Wagon now feature the new charismatic i30 Fastback bumper. Its sleek and elegant lines enhance the progressive and timeless look of both models, harmonising the design of the i30 range.
Exterior Design
The upright front of the New Generation i30 is confident and expressive, and further enhanced by the new front bumper. The signature Cascading Grille is characterised by a downward tapering gesture inspired by the flow of molten steel. In combination with the three-projector LED (low and high beam) headlamps and the vertical LED daytime running lights with indicator function, the New Generation i30 has a strong visual presence. To further enhance this, projector-type front fog lamps are integrated into the air curtain grids.
With its harmonious proportions, short front and rear overhangs, a long bonnet and a tapered roof silhouette, the car gets a sporty appearance and solid stance on the road. The New Generation i30 features a sophisticated sleek character line that flows naturally from the headlamp along the almost horizontal belt line to connect with the LED rear lamps and further wraps around the rear for a timeless appearance. The black rear spoiler enhances aerodynamics and makes the New Generation i30 look even more dynamic and compact. With a Coefficient of Drag of only 0.30, aerodynamic performance is enhanced through several measures including an Active Air Flap behind the front grille and air curtains on each side of the front bumper to enhance airflow and reduce turbulences in the wheel housing.
Its muscular wide rear design with a sculpted and 3-dimensional appearance and the signature light graphic incorporating the high-positioned reflectors and fog lamps set the car apart on the road.
The New Generation Hyundai i30 is available with 17-inch two tone 10-spoke alloy wheels, 16-inch two-tone 10-spoke alloy wheels or 15-inch alloy or steel wheels.
In order for every customer to pick their favourite colour there are in total twelve exterior colours consisting of two pearl choices: Platinum Silver and Phantom Black; and seven metallic choices: Stellar Blue, Micron Gray, Champion Blue, Moon Rock, Fiery Red, , Olivine Grey and White Sand plus two solid choices: Engine Red and Polar White.
Interior Design
Getting into the New Generation Hyundai i30, customers are greeted by a clean and intuitive interior with a horizontal layout that conveys an elegant impression and a feeling of roominess. Chrome surrounding and high quality interior materials round up the calm and sophisticated atmosphere. The floating screen of the optional eight-inch navigation touch screen on the dashboard integrates all navigation, media and connectivity features and allows drivers to stay always tuned to the traffic ahead thanks to its ergonomic position. The new multifunction three-spoke steering wheel allows easy and intuitive operation of all functions through an ergonomically positioned operation controls and can be heated for enhanced comfort. The climate and temperature control is positioned conveniently in the centre console and can be easily operated through the dials without distracting the driver.
The New Generation i30 offers plenty of space for passengers and luggage alike and does not compromise on interior roominess for its sporty exterior design. The i30 makes driving comfortable for all passengers with segment-leading roominess. The feeling of space is enhanced by the optional panoramic glass sunroof which allows to tilt or to slide open. While driving the armrest slides forward for the most comfortable position and may also be opened to access additional storage possibilities underneath.

Practicality is enhanced with a two-stage luggage board and a ski hatch in the rear centre seat.
