Though, the new third generation i30 maintains the design that one may find in the latest Hyundais but in addition it has sharper, edgier and cooler styling, all thanks to the Hyundai’s Fluidic Sculpture 2.0 design language.
The new 3rd gen i30 has the same cascading grille as seen in the second-generation i10 or commonly known as the Grand i10. The car also has all-LED lighting (for both high and low beam), the headlight has three-projector setup, fog lamps, vertically placed daytime running LEDs (DRLs) with projector fog lamps. The car along with many other things also has an array of alloy wheel options - 15, 16, 17 inches.
Looking at the interior of the car, i30 has symmetric layout for the dashboard with a five/ eight inch touch-screen infotainment system.
The car carries a massive boot space of 395 litres. It gets better as the Hyundai hatch gets electronically adjustable driver’s seat with memory setting so that the driver don’t have to manually change the settings every time.

Hyundai might add other options as well as a 1.4-litre naturally aspirated petrol, 1.0-litre T-GDi three -cylinder turbo petrol and the bigger 1.6-litre CRDi diesel.
With mouth watering features like this, the Hyundai i30 will definitely cost a premium and if gets a chance to run in the Indian Territory, the car would cost somewhere around Rs 14 to 16 lakh.
