Default Hyundai's Sentra Nismo Killer!!!

Hyundai i30 N revealed

Hyundai's testing their new I30, which I believe is the Elantra Touring. A 247HP hot hatch, engineered to compete with the GTi. In other exciting Nissan sports news... The leaf battery will charge quicker!!!


Opinion:
Since Hyundai is already taking a shyt all over us by outperforming all our sub-premium "passenger vehicles", stressing the quotation there. It would be nice if they stop fukkin mimicking our design queues all day, everyday for goodness sakes. Damn!!! Like if you're gonna shyt all over our performance, try an original design to go with it!

The only design that's really there's is the veloster/optima/stinger
Stright_Drop and Zbrah like this.

I didn't read anywhere it wasn't or is. This is what I do know historically about Hyundai and anything relative to the Elantra/I30 series...
The touring models always debut and run in the U.K. first. They don't come here right away and they gauge public interest before shipping cars like that here. It took two years before we got the I30 hatch here which we call the Elantra touring? So this may come as the Elantra R spec or something if there's a demand from the Hyundai community?

Whether it comes here or not. Our brand ain't doing shut to make passenger cars interesting. PERIOD unless you really itch for blacked out mirrors and spoilers. Hyundai/Kia, are...

IIRC the prototype design leaked about 2 years ago. Looked a bit more aggressive than this. I like this thing. Keep it well below prices theyll probably have a hit with it.
