Hyundai has revealed the prices and specifications of the new i30.
Starting at £20,695, the new i30 has been updated and boasts striking exterior and interior updates, as well as an electrified engine line-up, to enhance performance and efficiency.
Ashley Andrew, Managing Director, Hyundai Motor UK, commented: “The i30 was the first of Hyundai’s “I” cars to be introduced and is now on its 4th generation. Since its introduction in 2007, i30 has attracted a diverse customer base from those looking for a practical, well equipped and affordable family car through to enthusiast drivers searching for a dose of excitement in the latest hot hatch, as well as featuring on a number of the UK’s Police fleets. With the new i30 refreshing the model now and a new i30N soon, its popularity looks set to remain.”
