Hyundai i30 Fastback N

The Hyundai i30 Fastback N is the high-performance version of the five-door fastback body of the third-generation (PD) i30 and the third car of the Hyundai N brand. Hyundai Europe unveiled it at the Paris Motor Show on 2 October 2018 and sales began in 2019; like the i30 N it is not sold in South Korea. It uses the same 2.0 litre Theta II turbo GDi engine and dual final-gear gearbox as the i30 N. The roofline is 21 mm lower and the car 120 mm longer, which lowers the drag coefficient to 0.297 from the i30 N value of 0.32 and improves high-speed stability. In performance-package form it weighs 1,516 kg, only 7 kg more than the i30 N, with a front to rear weight split of about 60 to 40. The 2021 facelift added the N DCT dual-clutch gearbox, and an i30 Fastback N race car entered the World Time Attack Challenge in Australia.
