Hyundai showcased some of their global products at the Auto Expo 2016 which included the stunningly designed i30 hatchback.

Among the big line-up of products displayed by Hyundai, the i30 was immediately recognizable for its dynamic silhouette. It is unavailable for Indian buyers due to a different market sphere where premium hatchbacks are yet to break the image tag. Competing against cars like the Toyota Corolla, Kia Cee’d, Honda Civic, Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus globally, the car doesn’t fail to charm with the fluidic design philosophy.

The i30 is known for outstanding fuel economy and safety (7 Airbags). The ingenious design promises design elements which make every facet feel premium and sporty though the driving characteristics cannot be immediately determined considering the family DNA. Powered by a 1.4-litre petrol, 1.6-litre petrol engine or the range topping 1.6-litre CRDI diesel engine with VGT which goes on to deliver 136 PS of power, the car guarantees responsiveness.
