Hyundai i30 1.0 Gasoline (88 kW) / 3rd gen 2nd FL
Vehicle Characteristics
The Hyundai i30 1.0 Gasoline (88 kW) from the third generation’s second facelift is a compact hatchback designed for drivers seeking efficiency and modern styling. Its 1.0-liter gasoline engine delivers 88 kW, making it suitable for urban commuters and small families who value a balance of performance and fuel economy. The refreshed design and updated features position this model as an appealing option in the competitive compact segment.
Owners have reported occasional concerns with the engine’s responsiveness, especially under heavy acceleration, reflecting the limitations of a small displacement turbo unit. Some feedback mentions the manual transmission can feel notchy at times, and the suspension, while comfortable for city driving, may feel firm on rougher roads. Braking performance is generally reliable, but a few users have noted early wear on brake components.
