The images show a camouflaged car with the test track scheme “Area C” painted in orange on its sides at the research center in Namyang, South Korea.
Compared to the standard hot hatch, the Project C modification will feature a lightweight construction using composite materials, upgraded aerodynamic “plumage,” as well as special 19-inch sports wheels. The Hyundai i30 N will be limited to 600 units.
The powertrain will not undergo changes. The Hyundai i30 N is equipped with a two-liter turbocharged “four,” which in the top version of the car develops 275 hp and 353 Nm of torque. The engine works in conjunction with a six-speed manual gearbox. Such a hot hatch in standard form can accelerate to the first “hundred” in 6.1 seconds, and its maximum speed is limited to 250 km/h.
