Hyundai has released the first images of the updated i30 N hot hatch.

 

Design changes include revised front and rear bumpers, a wide centre grille with the N signature, new LED headlamps with V-shaped daytime running lights, new rear lamps and larger exhaust pipes.

 

There’s also newly-developed 19-inch forged alloy wheels which trim 14kg from the car’s unsprung mass.

 

Hyundai is yet to provide any interior pictures, however, it’s expected the i30 N will get a larger infotainment touchscreen.

 

Along with the design updates, buyers will be able to option an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

 

The current model’s 202kW/353Nm 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine is expected to be carried over, though, there is speculation the car will get a slight power bump.

 

Locally, the updated Hyundai i30 N will launch in the first half of 2021, full specifications and pricing will be announced closer to the launch date.
