The new i30 N

Explore the performance of the new i30 N.

Blistering performance taken to the
next level.

The latest generation of this racetrack-capable hot hatch builds on the success of its predecessor,
offering more lightweight materials resulting in more agility and better handling. The suspension and steering systems
have been retuned, resulting in improved ride and handling performance for both transmissions.

Performance Package

The 2.0 T-GDI engine now delivers 280 PS and a substantial increase in flat power for more torque and power at lower RPMs. This ensures high responsiveness, improved acceleration and much more fun. Choose from a 6-speed manual transmission or a wet-type eight-speed dual clutch transmission (N DCT) with paddle shifters for more control and faster shifts. Max. torque: 392 Nm. Top speed: 250 km/h.

Standard Trim.

With the standard trim, the new i30 N is equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission with a carbon synchronizer ring and a strong clutch. Short shift travel helps with fast shifting and gives you sporty response for more racecar feeling in everyday life. Maximum power output: 250 PS. Maximum torque: 353 Nm. Top speed: 250 km/h.

1
The N DCT, even more fun to drive.

Featuring lightning fast shifts and excellent power transmission, the new N DCT delivers excellent acceleration, taking you from 80-120 km/h in 3.3 secs. That's 2.1 seconds faster than the manual transmission.
2
N DCT motorsport layout.

When you feel like taking control and using the gear lever to shift, you’ll love the motorsport shifting logic born of our TCR racing experience: to downshift, push forward, and to upshift, pull back.
3
Fast shift at your fingertips.

The racing-inspired paddle shifters put fast, effortless gear changes at your fingertips. And they’re mounted on the steering wheel, you can shift more efficiently when cornering.
4
N grin shift: push for max power.

Unleash full N performance for 20 seconds with a single button. Enjoy max. torque and acceleration, max. exhaust sound and a push feel when upshifting.
5
N power shift.

Enhanced driving thrills with “push feel” when upshifting. Engages at acceleration with more than 90 percent throttle, mitigating any reduction in torque by using upshifts to deliver maximum power to the wheels.

For more race car feeling in
everyday life.

You have two performance enhancing choices when it comes to making fast, smooth and efficient shifts.
The standard smooth-shifting 6-speed close-ratio manual or the available all-new quick-shifting wet-type 8-speed dualclutch
transmission (N DCT), which also lets you select gears manually with the shift lever or the steering wheel mounted paddle shifters.

The all-new N DCT.

Available for the first time: a wet-type 8-speed dual clutch transmission with paddle shifters and new N performance functions for an even sportier experience.
6-speed manual.

Perfect for enthusiast drivers who love to operate a crisp shifter and a tight clutch, the ball-type gearshift also features a blue stripe and the N-badge.

N Grin Control System.

Enjoy more miles per kilometre- At the push of a button, the N Grin Control System gives you the choice of five distinct drive modes to match your mood. The different modes changes the character of the car. Adjusting the parameters of the engine, suspension, steering, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), exhaust sound, N Corner Carving Differential (e-LSD), transmission.

Launch control.

Enjoy maximum traction for the fastest possible launch. The system reduces wheel spin or slip on a hard acceleration from a standing start, helping to launch the car like a professional race driver.

Rev-matching.

Fast and smooth downshifts. Rev-matching synchronizes engine speed to the input shaft speed for the next gear, reducing wear and enhancing durability.

Rear Stiffness Bar.

This feature increases torsional stiffness, ensuring consistent driving performance and feedback especially when cornering and during dynamic maneuvers.

Lightweight components for better performance.

The weight saved through the new high-performance N Light Seats and 19" forged alloy wheels results in better performance and handling for a more agile driving experience.

1
N traction and stability control.

Like a good co-pilot, it helps when needed, but is otherwise quiet, never disturbing your driving fun and making you go even faster. It can be switched off completely for maximum racetrack feeling.
2
N Corner carving differential.

Engineered by Hyundai to provide a unique carving feeling through even the most challenging corners, this differential maintains maximum fun and stability when braking, entering and exiting corners.
3
Active variable exhaust system.

Pump up the volume. Select different levels of exhaust sound – relatively restrained in Normal mode, to the crackling “after-burn” growl in N mode with added fuel detonations, like a rally car.
