Hyundai’s New Generation i30 Tourer joins the hatchback stablemate at the end of July.

The New Generation i30 Tourer arrives on 23July with prices starting from £16,195 and comes in four trim levels with a choice of two engines an three power outputs. Insurance Group ratings from 9E are among the lowest in class.

Hyundai has paid a lot of attention to carrying capacity and its volume  is greater than key competitors and even larger than some D-segment estates, rising from a nominal 528 litres to 1,642 litres.

Following in the footsteps of the award-winning New Generation i30 Hatchback launched in March of this year, the i30 Tourer is the fifth new model Hyundai has launched in the UK in 2012.

There is a choice of two engines in the range, a120PS petrol unit or alternatively the 1.6 CRDi diesel unit, in the form of a 110PS or a higher-powered 128PS variant.

Both are available with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission.

Hyundai’s clean and efficient Blue Drive technologies come on all 1.6 CRDi manual models as standard and feature Intelligent Stop & Go Technology and it is 12 per cent more fuel efficient than its predecessor – returning 67.3mpg on the combined cycle – while emitting 11 per cent less CO2 at 110g/km.

Four trim levels are available starting with Classic, which comes standard with Bluetooth® connectivity and voice recognition, multi-function steering wheel and air conditioning.

Body coloured door handles and mirrors are standard on the entry level trim along with LED daytime running lights – the only car in its segment to offer this feature across the entire range.

Active trim starts at £17,295 OTR and adds alloy wheels, cruise control with speed limiter, rear parking sensors, electric rear windows and leather steering wheel and gear knob.

Customers wanting additional luxury features can choose Style with dual zone climate control, automatic headlights and front windscreen wipers, front parking sensors and electrically folding door mirrors at £20,095.

The range-topping Style Nav model adds touchscreen navigation plus a rear view parking camera for a £1,000 premium over the Style trim, beginning at £21,095.

Two option packs are available. The first is the Convenience Pack costing £750, which features keyless entry, engine start/stop button, chrome exterior door handles with illumination, puddle lamps and automatically folding door mirrors.

The Individual Pack costing £1,000 includes leather upholstery, heated front seats plus the supervision cluster with LCD Colour Display. A panoramic sunroof costing £950 can also be specified on the i30 Tourer. This option plus the Convenience and Individual packs are available on Style and Style Nav.

The New Generation i30 Tourer has one of the industry’s leading warranty’s – the 5 Year Triple Care assurance package.
