About this car
Some hot hatches are quick. Some are practical. The 2024 Hyundai i30 N Premium MY25 is one of the rare few that manages to be both while putting a grin on your face every single time you get behind the wheel.
Built for drivers who still love driving, the i30 N has earned a cult following thanks to its razor-sharp handling, thrilling performance and everyday usability. Whether you’re heading to work, attacking your favourite winding road or enjoying a weekend track day, this is a car that feels alive from the moment you press the start button.
Under the bonnet sits Hyundai’s potent 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, paired with the lightning-fast 8-speed N DCT dual-clutch transmission. The result is blistering acceleration, instant gear changes and enough performance to make many far more expensive sports cars nervous.
But the real magic of the i30 N isn’t just the speed. It’s the personality. The crackles, pops and exhaust burbles are addictive, while the beautifully tuned chassis gives drivers the confidence to enjoy every corner.
