The new 2018 Hyundai i30 N a very hot hatchback

As i said in a previous post Korean automakers Hyundai and Kia are doing everything to gain the respect they deserve and loose their old reputation of "cheap car manufacturers". The i30 N is the first performance car of the N line, a hot hatch which has the experience of the brand in the WRC infused in it to make it a tough competitor for cars like the Golf GTI. This model has been developed also focusing on the excitement of the person behind the wheel for example with an exhaust sound generator which makes cool back-fire sounds.
The car looks very intimidating, it has a wide front grill, red accents in the front splitter and rear diffuse and it has the same paint used in the i20 competing in the WRC.
The engine is a 2.0 liter turbocharged inline 4 spitting out 271 hp and 353 Nm (260 lb-ft) of torque, the power is sent to the front wheels through a six speed transmission.
For the wheels you can choose between 18 or 19 inch and combined with the electronic limited slip differential and suspension contribute to a great grip in every situation. The i30 N can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62mph) in 6.4 seconds, the exact same as a Golf GTI, and the top speed is 250 km/h (155 mph). This vehicle has been heavily tested in the Nürburgring it has done infact more than 10 thousand km in the German track where Hyundai has a testing facility. The car will be available towards the end of 2017 the price is still unknown but it will be probably very close to the competitors maybe a bit lower.
