2019 Hyundai i30 Fastback N

Despite being one of the first to see the Hyundai i30 Fastback N at its global reveal in Düsseldorf, Germany, in 2017, it’s now two years on and I’m only just climbing into the driver’s seat for the first time. Back then, they presented the standard (non N) version only, and Hyundai Australia was yet to decide if it was going to take the model at all. And, as we now know, it was a ‘no’ for that version, but a tick for the go-fast N variant.
