Used Hyundai i30 car buying guide

The style of the car

Well designed with a premium look, the Hyundai i30 is available as a hatchback, a coupe-like Fastback and a Tourer estate. There are also sportier looking N Line versions and an i30N performance hatchback.

How it drives

Promising a good drive, the i30 is comfortable with suspension that handles bumps in the road well and a range of petrol and diesel engines to suit all needs. All i30 models are compact in size making them easy to drive in town and easy to park.

The interior

The i30 is a family hatchback with a good-sized boot that can hold three medium sized suitcases or a pushchair. You can fit even more in the Tourer estate and the Fastback coupe. All models have five-doors and can seat five people, with the S versions featuring an audio system with Bluetooth connectivity and SE models including a touchscreen infotainment system. The SE Nav also comes with sat nav and rear parking sensors, while the N Line models look sporty.

Running costs and reliability

Prices for the Hyundai i30 are competitive, usually less than more premium rivals like the Volkswagen Golf. Petrol and diesel engines are fuel efficient and most models fit into relatively low insurance groups. Road tax costs are reasonable and maintenance costs are inexpensive with Hyundai providing a five-year warranty on all its cars. Hyundai has a great reputation for reliability and was ranked the third best car maker in the JD Power Dependability Study, so the i30 is unlikely to let you down. It has a five-star rating from Euro NCAP and from 2017 standard safety equipment for the i30 included automatic emergency braking and a lane departure warning alert.

How it compares with similar cars

The i30 is larger than the Hyundai i20, with more interior space and more body style options. It looks and feels more premium than the Kia Ceed and its long list of standard equipment makes it good value when compared with rivals, such as the Ford Focus and Volkswagen Golf. It’s also won a few awards, including a Fuel Economy accolade and a Best Hot Hatch award for the i30N.
