What are the i30 Sedan Engine Options?

Hyundai’s updated i30 Sedan range now gives Aussies three choices of engines, including a new fuel-efficient hybrid for the first time in the i30 Sedan.

The base 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol produces 110kW of power and 180Nm of torque which is thrown to the front wheels via a CVT automatic.

Stepping up to the N Line or N Line Premium adds a more potent 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing a very healthy 150kW of power and 265Nm of torque which is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The i30 Sedan Hybrid range picks up a 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol engine that is paired with an electric motor producing a combined 104kW of power and 265Nm of torque, with power thrown to the wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.

All members of the i30 Sedan range are front-wheel drive.

Is the 2024 i30 Sedan Fuel Efficient?

With three engines on offer, there’s a decent range of choices for fuel-conscious buyers within the i30 Sedan range.

The base 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol is rated at 6.1L/100km on a combined cycle, while the 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder is rated at 6.8L/100km on a combined cycle.

The fuel economy hero of the range is, of course, Hyundai’s new hybrid engine which is rated at just 3.9L/100km on a combined cycle, making it one of the most fuel-efficient sedans in the segment.

• i30 Sedan 2.0 petrol fuel economy: 6.1L/100km

• i30 Sedan 1.6T fuel economy: 6.8L/100km

• i30 Sedan Hybrid: 3.9L/100km

Is the Hyundai i30 Sedan Practical and Spacious?

The Hyundai i30 Sedan is a remarkably spacious package for a compact car.

Not only that, Hyundai has done a great job with the design and packaging of the i30 Sedan’s cabin that make it feel far more premium than the base model’s price tag might suggest.

Up front, the driver and passenger are seated quite low in the cockpit which offers a tonne of headroom for taller drivers, while healthy forward and side visibility gives you a great view of your surroundings.

A chunky centre console separates the driver and front passenger, offering a storage tray behind the gear lever, a pair of cup holders, storage inside the folding armrest, bottle holders on either side of the cabin and a unique grab handle on the passenger’s side.

Move to the second row and the i30 Sedan is a heavy-hitter when it comes to interior space and legroom for those seated in the rear.

Rather than a cabin only suitable for kids, the i30 Sedan offers more than enough space for adults to get comfortable in the second row, though headroom is somewhat impacted by the sloping roofline design.

Having said that, for the segment, it’s impressive, while the ISOFIX anchors and top tether mounts mean you can fit three child seats across the i30 Sedan’s second row without much of a problem.

Finally, the i30 Sedan rounds out its impressive family-friendly offering with a decent 474L of boot space for school and supermarket runs, making it a great option for Aussie families.

Is the Hyundai i30 Sedan Safe?

The latest Hyundai i30 Sedan is yet to be officially tested by ANCAP, though it does come boasting a decent list of safety equipment to help sweeten the deal.

As standard, the i30 Sedan receives autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian, cyclist and motorcyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, rear cross-traffic alerts, lane-follow assist, driver attention monitoring, a rear-view camera with front & rear parking sensors and tyre pressure monitoring.

Stepping up to the i30 Sedan Elite adds rear cross-traffic assist, blind-spot assist, safe exit warnings and Hyundai’s Bluelink connected services.

Hyundai’s range-topping i30 Sedan Premium and N Line Premium receive rear autonomous emergency braking, a surround-view camera and a blind-spot monitor.

Our Verdict: Is the Hyundai i30 Sedan Worth it?

Hyundai’s update for the MY24 i30 Sedan range has managed to improve upon an already impressive package that offers far more space and practicality than you’d expect from a compact car.

The addition of a hybrid engine to the range has made a dramatic difference in terms of fuel economy, while Hyundai’s packaging means buyers opting for the base model pick up a healthy amount of features.

All up, the latest i30 Sedan looks to be the best yet, and if you’re thinking of upgrading to a new car like it, be sure to reach out to one of our car-buying experts who can help find you the best possible price.
