Limited edition i30 N-Drive goes on sale
May 6, 2022
Hyundai has announced the launch of an i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition, an exclusive, special version of the high-performance Hyundai i30 N hatchback.
This unique edition of the new i30 N delivers the same high-performance driving experience with a distinctive exterior and interior design. The limited run of 800 units began production in the last week of April, with 75 vehicles destined for the UK.
To develop the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition, Hyundai enhanced the current i30 N using market feedback, media feedback, and inspiration by N-thusiasts – its community of Hyundai N fans – who have already been modifying their own vehicles. The exclusive edition is available in two body colours – Phantom Black Pearl and the new Serenity White Pearl.
It is equipped with the i30 N’s 2.0 T-GDi engine, with peak power of 280PS and 392Nm torque, combined with Hyundai’s in-house developed eight-speed wet-type dual-clutch transmission with three N performance functions for an even sportier experience: N Power Shift, N Grin Shift, and N Track Sense Shift. By using the N Grin Shift (NGS) button, the car will get a boost of an extra 10PS for 20 seconds.
The exterior and interior designs of the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition have been carried over from the new i30 N to deliver the same fun-to-drive experience wrapped in a more exclusive package.
It features 19-inch forged alloy wheels in a dark bronze matte finish, black Hyundai badges; special decals on the side, front and rear, plus two dedicated Drive-N badges in dark bronze matte on the side fenders.
The interior has a unique numbered badge, depicting its position among the limited volume of 800 total models. Instead of leather, Alcantara with red stitching will cover the steering wheel, gear lever, armrest, and handbrake. All accents decorating the interior will be in red colour. This applies to the seat belts in the front and rear, the steering wheel N buttons, the inserts and stitching of the N Light Seats with its new pattern. The car also has exclusive floor mats with specific lettering.
UK pricing and specification will be confirmed in due course.
