Hyundai i30 - presentation of the third generation of the model took place in September 2016 in Frankfurt, after which the hatchback was shown at the Paris Motor Show. The five-door was developed by the Hyundai Motor Europe technical center in Rüsselheim, and pre-production samples were tested not only on public roads, but also at the famous Nurburgring. The hallmark of the car was the so-called "cascade" design of the radiator grille, which, according to the plan of the designers, should be associated with the flow of molten metal.
In the new generation i30, the share of high-strength steel grades in the most critical body elements has been increased to 53%, due to which it has become more rigid and “lost” 28 kg. The traditional MacPherson type suspension scheme is used in front, while the Korean brand's hatchback has a multi-link rear. Trunk volume according to the VDA measurement method is 395 liters versus 378 liters for the i30 previous iterations and 380 l Volkswagen Golf II. At the same time, the novelty added a modest 40 mm (4340 mm) in length.
In Ukraine, the new Hyundai i30 is available with gasoline atmospheric engines 1.4 Kappa (100 hp and 135 Nm) and 1.6 Gamma (130 hp and 155 Nm). In addition, the five-door hatchback is offered with a 1.4 T-GDi turbo engine (140 hp and 242 Nm), which replaced the Gamma family unit of the same volume. The supercharged engine received a single-channel high-pressure turbocharger built into the exhaust manifold for increased efficiency. It is not only the most productive of the presented, but also the most economical - fuel consumption per 100 km is 6.6 liters in the city, 4.8 liters in the suburban and 5.4 liters in the combined cycle.
Transmissions: 6-speed "mechanics" for aspirated and 7-speed "robot" with two clutches for the turbo unit. In addition, the 1.6-liter engine can be combined with a 6-band "automatic".
There are three trim levels: Express, Style and Premium. The list of basic equipment of the Hyundai i30 2017 includes 4 front airbags, curtain airbags for front and rear riders, ABS, ESC and HAC systems (holding when starting on a hill), climate control, cruise control, electric windows, electric adjustment and heating of rear-view mirrors , heated front seats and steering wheel. The simplest media system with a 5" monochrome display, USB and AUX connections, steering wheel controls and 6 speakers.
