Hyundai i30 Turbo


Hyundai revealed their new range-topping version of the i30 hatchback at this year’s edition of the Geneva Motor Show. The Hyundai i30 Turbo packs a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine producing 186 horsepower and 265 Nm of torque for a 0-100 km/h sprint in 8 seconds and a top speed of 219 km/h. It comes with a pretty standard six-speed manual transmission which sends power to the front wheels.
At the exterior, the South Korean models stands out thanks to the 18-inch alloy wheels, revised bumpers and front grille with aluminum accents, bi-xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights and a dual-pipe exhaust system.
