2020 Hyundai i30 2.0 T-GDi N Performance – Overview

We are delighted to present this exceptional 2020 Hyundai i30 N Performance, a true driver’s car that delivers an exhilarating blend of everyday usability and track-bred capability. In a striking Black finish, this five-door hatchback is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine producing an impressive 271bhp, yet it remains remarkably practical for daily driving. With just 54,000 miles and a full dealership service history from only one previous owner, this car offers superb provenance and peace of mind. The last service was carried out on 26 September 2025 at 46,868 miles, underscoring its well-maintained condition. As a Euro 6 compliant model, it is also ULEZ ready, making it an ideal choice for city and suburban commutes alike.

Performance & Powertrain

Under the bonnet lies a 2.0-litre T-GDi turbocharged four-cylinder engine, driving the front wheels through a slick six-speed manual transmission. This powertrain delivers a blistering 0–62mph time of just 6.1 seconds, placing it among the quickest in its class. Maximum power of 271bhp arrives at 6,000rpm, with peak torque of 378Nm available from 4,700rpm, ensuring strong in-gear acceleration for overtaking and motorway merging. The combined fuel economy figure of 34mpg is respectable for a high-performance hot hatch, while the turbocharged engine remains responsive and eager right across the rev range. The exhaust note is characterful yet refined, and the car’s sound level during drive-by is just 71dB, meaning it is civilised for daily use without being intrusive.

Exterior & Design

Finished in a deep Black metallic paint, this i30 N Performance cuts an aggressive yet sophisticated profile. The hatchback body style is both sporty and practical, with LED headlights providing excellent illumination and a modern appearance. The front bumper, rear diffuser, and side sills are all N-specific, while the impressive 18-inch alloy wheels (standard on Performance models) fill the arches perfectly. Exterior dimensions are 4,335mm long, 1,795mm wide, and 1,447mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2,650mm – giving it a planted stance. The car sits low, but ground clearance is sufficient for everyday speed bumps and driveways. A 12-month MOT will be provided on purchase, and the history check is clear, confirming its sound structural condition.

Interior & Comfort

Inside, the cabin is driver-focused and well-equipped. The climate control system includes an automatic de-fog function for the front windscreen, ensuring clear visibility in all weathers. Front and rear parking sensors make manoeuvring in tight spaces effortless, while the infotainment system supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for seamless smartphone integration. The seats are supportive and comfortable, ideal for both spirited driving and long journeys. Rear legroom is generous for a car of this size, and the large boot space offers plenty of room for luggage, shopping, or sports equipment. The interior colour is a dark theme, complementing the black exterior and maintaining a premium feel. With a kerb weight of just 1,429kg, the i30 N feels agile and light on its feet, yet the cabin remains solidly built and quiet at motorway speeds.
