Hyundai’s facelifted i30 N hot hatchback is on sale in the UK now, priced from £33,745 for the conventional automobile and £34,495 for the coupe-inspired Fastback.
Launched as the brand’s first N performance, the i30 N has been a substantial success for the Korean firm, establishing it as a severe player in the segment and supplying it with a legitimate competitor for the Volkswagen GTI.

Hyundai’s most current update for the i30 N brings a few styling tweaks, some a lot more power and a new optional eight-speed automatic gearbox, which can be had for an extra £1,950.

The i30 N’s design hasn’t altered considerably over the old car’s. Hyundai has made a few subtle revisions, fitting a broader radiator grille and some fresh LED headlamps, with a new V-shaped lighting signature. There’s also a couple of extra fins on the front bumper, which Hyundai says improves the car’s aerodynamics at high speeds.
At the rear, the hatchback features a new roof-mounted spoiler, which is fitted with the firm’s trademark triangular high-level brake light. The tail-lights are another new addition, as are the larger twin-exit exhaust tips. However, the rear of the Fastback remains unchanged over the outgoing model.
