| HYUNDAI i30 READY TO ROLL |
After much anticipation the all new Hyundai i30 is here and as you can see it’s been worth the wait. Not only does it look incredible with its stylish European design, but it also offers a eco-friendly diesel engine and advanced safety features.
Designed in Germany specifically for the European market, the five-door hatch has had further improvements made to the handling to ensure it shines in Australian conditions. Along with fine tuned suspension comes the choice of a 2.0-litre petrol or 1.6-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine. The diesel engine produces 85kW of power while still traveling an amazing 100km on just 4.7 litres of fuel, which is hybrid-like fuel consumption.
Inside the i30 is equally impressive, with special attention paid to interior materials and comfort.
Three specification grades are offered for the i30: SX, SLX and SR. The SX comes with four-wheel disc brakes with ABS and EBD, 15-inch wheels, dual airbags, air-conditioning, power windows, height- and reach-adjustable steering, anti-whiplash front head restraints, remote central locking with alarm, an MP3/WMA-compatible AM/FM radio and CD player with iPod and USB interfaces.
The SLX can be distinguished on the outside by its 16-inch alloy wheels fitted to205-section tyres, front foglights and body coloured doorhandles. Inside, the SLX adds front, side and side curtain airbags, cruise control (2.0 petrol only), climate-control air conditioning, leather-clad steering wheel with audio and cruise controls (2.0 petrol only), leather and alloy-look gearshift knob, a trip computer, rear seat fold-down centre armrest with twin cupholders and additional twin tweeter speakers.
The range-topping SR variant adds standard traction and stability control, 17-inch chrome finish alloys fitted with 225/45 tyres, a bodykit comprising side skirts and rear roof spoiler, a boot luggage net and leather-trimmed seat bolsters, door trim inserts, and alloy sports pedals. The audio unit is an in-dash six-CD stacker with digital external amplifier.
The SR has stability control and traction control as standard, while the Protectz pack is available on other models to provide ESC, traction control and curtain and front-side airbags.
The Hyundai i30 takes motoring to the next level and is sure to redefine what a small car is capable of. To book your test drive of the all new Hyundai i30 contact us today. |
