New Hyundai i30 models are now available from Charles Hurst Hyundai, located in Dundonald Northern Ireland. The i30 is one of the latest Hyundai models. It has a sporty feel to it, but the interior is spacious and the layout is very focussed on the driver. There is a choice of engines for the i30 and the models make use of Blue Drive technologies to ensure that the car is emitting the lowest possible levels of CO2. Owners of this car can take advantage of much lower road tax costs.
The exterior design of the car has a distinctive style. The wheels range from 15-inch steel wheels to 16-inch alloy wheels. Some models have door handles and mirrors that are the same colour as the rest of the bodywork. The mirrors on some of the models have integrated LED indicators, and all of the models have a solid paint finish and a rear spoiler with integral brake light.
The interior of the vehicle has been given a number of interesting features. There are standard features in all models such as air conditioning and Bluetooth capability. There are controls for the audio and phone on the steering wheel. Some models have satellite navigation as standard and there is an optional convenience pack available. Extras such as a leather steering wheel and gear knob are available on all models except the Classic. There is a cushioned armrest for the driver’s seat. All models benefit from the alloy effect fascia trim. The front centre armrest has a handy storage compartment.
Safety is paramount with many vehicle manufacturers these days and Hyundai is no exception. The i30 is equipped with no less than six airbags. These are located at the front and the sides as well as curtains. A driver’s knee airbag can also be provided at an extra cost and there is a deactivation switch for the passenger airbag. The brakes are top of the range with anti-lock braking systems and the brake assist system. The locks on the rear doors are childproof and deadlocks are standard. Other safety features include the electronic stability programme, an emergency stop signal, and pre-tensioners on the front seatbelts to give maximum protection in the event of an accident. The seatbelts in the front of the vehicle can have their height adjusted. A handy seatbelt reminder ensures that all passengers – and the driver – are wearing theirs. There are ISOfix anchorage points in the rear of the car for child seats, and all models have an alarm and remote central locking capability.
Steering is precise so the Hyundai i30 handles like a dream and there is ample passenger space in the cabin – in fact there’s more space than many other cars in its class.
