Bold Hyundai i30 Hatchback in South Africa




Hyundai has launched its new i30 hatchback in South Africa this week and is available in two petrol options, the 1.6 GLS and the 1.8 GLS. The new i30 has received a major overhaul compared to the outgoing model and takes on Hyundai’s ‘fluidic sculpture’ design philosophy.

The 1.6 variant is capable of 95kW at 6 300rpm with peak torque sitting at 157Nm at 4 850rpm. This model is available with either manual or automatic transmission and fuel consumption is at 6.4-litres/100km for the manual and 6.8-litres/100km for the automatic.



The 1.8 GLS is only available with manual transmission and puts out 110kW at 6 500rpm with 178Nm of torque at 4 700rpm. Fuel consumption for the 1.8 is rated at 6.5-litres/100km.

Standard features include dual-zone air-conditioning, electric side mirrors, automatic locking doors, cruise control, keyless entry, central locking and front and rear parking radar.

The new Hyundai i30 is set to do well in South Africa and buyers can expect to pay R229 000 for the Hyundai i30 1.6 GLS manual, R247 900 for the Hyundai i30 1.6 GLS automatic and R249 900 for the Hyundai i30 1.8 GLS.
