Hyundai i30 Fastback finally revealed

Hyundai is launching the most recent member of its i30 range, the Fastback. The car features a sloping roof line, a high spoiler line and a strong C-pillar design.

The new Hyundai i30 Fastback has the rear of a coupé, a lower nose and sleeker roofline. 115mm longer and 5mm lower to the ground than its hatchback sibling, the Fastback’s slimmer glass-line helps lower its height by 30mm. Hyundai claims this has improved its aerodynamics while lowering the car’s centre of gravity.

The Fastback gets modified suspension settings with spring rates that are 15 percent stiffer, enhancing agility and on-road handling. As such, the car will be the sportiest variant of the regular i30 range.

Hyundai i30 Fastback include a choice of two turbocharged petrol engines – the three-cylinder 120hp 1.0-litre T-GDI, and the four-cylinder 140hp 1.4-litre T-GDI. The former comes exclusively with a six-

The i30 Fastback offers customers an optional 8" touch screen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while also offering a free seven-year subscription to LIVE services, meaning updated information about weather, speed cameras , traffic and online searches for points of interest in real time. The i30 Fastback also comes with a wireless charging system for smartphones with the Qi standard.

The new Hyundai i30 Fastback will also get advanced cruise control and additional driver assist programmes such as rear cross traffic alert.

In terms of color options, customers will be proficient to choose between twelve exterior shades and three for the interior. From outside, you've got a option of three pearl colors (Stargazing Blue, Micron Grey and Phantom Black), seven metallic choices (Clean Slate Blue, Moon Rock, Intense Copper, Fiery Red, Platinum Silver, White Sand and Ara Blue), plus two solid colors (Engine Red and Polar White). Inside, you can spec your new i30 Fastback in either Oceanids Black, Slate Grey or with the fresh and unique Merlot Red interior.

Hyundai will add a third body-style to its i30 range when the Fastback launches internationally in early 2018 to rival the likes of the Audi A3 Saloon and Mazda 3 Fastback. The i30 Fastback sits above the Verna and below the Elantra in Hyundai’s global line-up.
