    You should service your i30 at your authorised Hyundai dealer or service centre, however servicing it at third party mechanics that follow OEM servicing instructions should not impact the i30’s warranty.

    How does the 2023 Hyundai i30 drive?

    Our expert take on Hyundai i30 drivability.

    Base models with the 120kW/203Nm (hatch) or 117kW/191Nm (sedan) 2.0-litre engine and six-speed transmissions are inoffensive motoring, with decent locally-sorted ride and handling balance – with one caveat being mediocre noise suppression.

    The N-Line models have a multi-link rear suspension, 150kW and 265Nm turbo engines, and the option of a seven-speed dual-clutch auto with paddles, making them quite consummate warmed-up hatchbacks.

    But the superstar models are the proper N cars, with their Nurburgring-honed tuning, adaptive dampers, multi-mode exhausts, massive brakes, LSDs, stiffening braces, variable steering and throttle modes, circuit maps, and track-ready driving modes that relax electronic driver aids.

    These are the real-deal. And that's before mentioning the 206kW and 392Nm (more on over boost) turbo engine, and availability of either six-speed manual or new eight-speed DCT.

    2023 Hyundai i30 vs other Small's to consider

    The i30's strength lies in its diversity: there's almost something for everyone, save the lack of a wagon.

    It's more spacious than a Toyota Corolla, and offers more performance from the option of 1.6 and 2.0-litre turbo engines. The Corolla counters by packing a frugal hybrid option, however.

    Should you buy the 2023 Hyundai i30

    Is this the right car for you? Out experts buy or not guide.

    From a cheap rental base to a track-honed dynamo, the range has you pretty covered. The only real missing areas are the lack of a hybrid to match the Corolla, and lack of a wagon.
