Hyundai i30 Elite 1.6L Diesel 7-Speed Dual Clutch Transmission 2WD^*

Twin tip exhaust.

Located in the blacked-out rear lower valance, the twin exhaust tips provide the SR range with a purposeful look.

Matching the look, while the unique rear muffler produces a sweet, yet subtle burble under acceleration.

Available on SR & SR Premium.

Cascading grille.

The i30 features a new front design with Hyundai Motor Chief Design Officer, Peter Schreyer calling it the “cascading grille” – Hyundai’s new signature feature.

The Active trim is available with a chrome surround front grille, with a piano black grille insert.

All other variants feature a chrome ‘falling mesh’ grille insert, which ties in with the new cascading design.

Full LED front lighting.

The full LED headlight units offer LED low-beam & high–beam functionality, and offer increased visibility via aesthetically-pleasing, crisp white lighting, and also improved durability.

These units feature a stylised design incorporating two low-beam projectors outboard, plus a third high-beam projector mounted inboard in each headlight unit.

These features are available on SR Premium and Premium variants.

Panoramic glass sunroof.

A feature typically reserved for much more expensive vehicles, the large full-length dual panel panoramic glass sunroof features a power tilt and slide front panel, offering a touch of luxury to the i30.

Additionally, the motorised sunblind can be closed completely to offer shade for occupants when desired.

Available on SR Premium & Premium variants, and is optional on SR and Elite variants.

Apple CarPlay™ & Android Auto™ .

Once your journey is underway, Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ lets you safely play music, make calls or get directions on the easy to use 8-inch touchscreen.

Apple CarPlay™ requires iPhone 5 or subsequent model (with lightning cable) in order to operate.

Android Auto™ requires a device with Android 5.0 operating system or subsequent version in order to operate.

Available on all variants.

8″ Multimedia touchscreen.

The all-new i30 includes Hyundai’s latest and most advanced 8” touchscreen multimedia system.

The tablet-style display panel rises vertically above the dashboard crash pad, allowing multimedia information to be displayed higher and nearer to the driver’s line-of-sight.

This new system hosts a range of connectivity features (Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, AUX and USB inputs with iPod compatibility, Apple CarPlay™, and Android Auto™).

The ability to tune into DAB+ digital radio stations, in addition to conventional AM/FM radio stations offers more choice of stations, clearer reception, as well as much improved sound quality.

The new system now also features Sat Nav as standard across the range. It comes with SUNA live traffic updates, and an extended 10 year Sat Nav Update Plan.

Available on all variants.

Electronic Parking Brakes (EPB).

Compared to a conventional handbrake, the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) not only allows more storage space in the front centre console, but is effortless in its operation. The “Auto Hold” function automatically maintains braking pressure once the vehicle has been brought to a complete stop, ensuring that the vehicle will not creep forwards or roll backwards even with the brake pedal released. The brakes are then released once the driver steps on the accelerator pedal.

These features are standard on SR (DCT only), SR Premium, Elite, and Premium variants.

Wireless charging.

Mounted in the centre console, a wireless charging pad (Qi standard) allows users to charge a compatible Qi-enabled smartphone without the use of messy and unsightly cables

This is standard on SR, SR Premium, Elite and Premium variants.

1.6L Turbo diesel engine.

For the customer that demands the best fuel efficiency, the 100kW 1.6L engine is available on Active, Elite, and Premium variants, and uses common rail direct injection and a variable geometry turbocharger to deliver impressive fuel consumption (manual: 4.5 L/100km / DCT: 4.7 L/100km).

The chassis improvements in terms of noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) in the all-new i30 ensure that diesel powertrain noise is kept to a minimum; resulting in a vehicle that is surprisingly quiet and refined.

1.6L turbo petrol engine.

Exclusive to the SR range, the 150kW Gamma 1.6 Turbo-GDi engine delivers sharp throttle response, impressive low-end torque, as well as surprising fuel economy.

The i30 SR range offers 25% more power and 31% more torque compared to the standard 2.0 GDi engine.

7 speed Dual Clutch Tranmissions (DCT).

Available with the 1.6L diesel and 1.6L petrol turbo engines, the 7-speed DCT combines the fuel efficiency of a manual transmission with the convenience of an automatic transmission.

Thanks to re-calibrated transmission logic, the new DCT is now even more responsive under spirited driving, yet still offers the smooth-shifting characteristics that are desired for everyday commuting.

Australian localisation programme.

The i30 features an Australian-specific suspension tuning, developed over thousands of kilometres of local on-road testing.

The tuning programme was carried out on a variety of road surfaces, including urban roads, highways, freeways, mountain passes, as well as country roads right here in Australia.

Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS).

Thanks to heat treatment processes, Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) is up to 10% lighter than, and twice as rigid, as conventional mild steel.

The all-new i30 features significantly increased application of AHSS, totalling 53.5% (as compared to 27.2% on the outgoing model), and resulting in a significant increase in static rigidity over the outgoing model, whilst achieving a 28kg lighter body-in-white weight.

Drive Mode.

Available on all automatic and Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) variants, the “Drive Mode” select function allows drivers to choose between ‘Normal’, ‘Eco’, and ‘Sport’ modes.

The ‘Normal’ mode offers a driving experience optimised for a typical driver, whilst ‘Eco’ mode maximises fuel economy. ‘Sport’ mode offers increased steering weighting and engine response. Coupled with delayed up-shifting, this mode maximises the dynamic driving feel of the vehicle.

Paddle shifters.

The SR range’s Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) variants offer steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

This delivers a more sporty driving experience by allowing drivers to change gears via the DCT’s sequential manual mode, whilst keeping their hands on the steering wheel.
