Hyundai i30 CrossWagon Driving Impressions, Comparison, Price And Insurance Price

The second generation of the Hyundai i30, which is a model of similar size to aRenault Megane or Volkswagen Golf , is available from € 13,590.Initially you can choose two body styles: five-door and wagon ("Crosswagon").There is also a three-door version is one of the cars of similar size with more space for occupants. Also satisfactory driving of course, for its smoothness and quietness of operation (even with diesel engines) for suspension comfort and quality feel that conveys both sight and touch. Overall, without addressing specific versions, the i30 seems preferable to Fiat Bravo and, perhaps, the Renault Megane and Citroen C4. Hyundai offers an extensive range of engines for this model (see table). So far we have thoroughly tested the version with the most powerful diesel engine available, 128 horses and six-speed automatic transmission (which works great). i30 with this combination of engine and gearbox has high fuel consumption and acceleration capacity is limited to the declared official power. A Renault Megane dCi 110, a Peugeot 308 HDi 112 and a SEAT Leon 1.6 TDI 105 hp are roughly as fast (as long as measurements own) despite the large difference in power with respect to Hyundai, and also spend significantly less fuel. i30 diesel engine with 128 horses (and manual gearbox) is on sale from 18 900 euros (with automatic transmission is 2100 euros more expensive). That is, it is cheaper than most cars of its power. Now it seems that the most fair is to compare cars that have a similar acceleration capacity rivals such as named in the preceding paragraph. So, if you look at this comparative record is that the i30 has a starting price slightly higher than them, but if it matches the equipment, the four left with a very similar final price. We were surprised how we have measured data of this i30 because the previous model of the same power(launched in 2010) was well positioned against the competition both as consumer benefit. Apart from this there are two more diesel engine less powerful and three petrol. The following table is a summary of all

Gasoline			Diesel
Version	CV	Change	Version	CV	Change
1.4 MPi	100	Manual	1.4 CRDi	90	Manual / Automatic
1.6 GDI BlueDrive	135	Manual	1.6 CRDi	110	Manual / Automatic.
			1.6 CRDi	128	Manual / Automatic

* BlueDrive versions have changes so that fuel costs are low, as a system of stop-start engine in arrests ("ISG").

 

Equipment

The i30 range is also as extensive both in equipment engines. There are five trim levels, but not all can be combined with all engines.policy is very flexible options. If you want certain options is necessary to choose the top trim level. For example, if we want an i30 with folding mirrors, must necessarily acquire the level of finish "Style". If you want the browser or rear camera parking aid, you have to go necessarily more expensive model "Style + '. In addition, you should also keep in mind that not all engines are available with all trim levels. No i30 may have xenon headlights, one thing is available in many competitive models. The halogen lamps lighting the i30 is normal. Its beam is very intense, somewhat yellowish, but sufficiently long, wide and uniform. They are not bad headlights, for example, halogen headlights of a Volkswagen Golf are worse. However, some of the competing models with Xenon headlights illuminate much better.  

Pricing insurance

Ensure all risk a 5p i30 1.6 CRDi 115 hp whose usual driver is a single man of 28 years and ten of card, you use the car every day, walk about 15 000 km per year, park on the street and resides in Barcelona has minimum cost of 716 € with the company LineDirect , the most affordable for this course as our insurance comparator .

One option to reduce the amount of the policy is to choose by insurance with excess. The most affordable offers it Balumba : € 339 - € 1200 excess -. A franchise low, eg 210 €, is paying € 387 a year, with Direct Line. A third party insurance expanded, theft, fire and moons, costs € 251 and one at third base, € 227 with MMT Seguros .
