Hyundai Motor UK has announced pricing for the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition, an exclusive, special version of the high-performance Hyundai i30 N hatchback. A total of 800 vehicles will be produced, with 75 vehicles destined for the UK1

Priced at £38,190, UK examples of the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition are exclusively available in the hatchback body style with 8 speed DCT transmission and a customer choice of two no cost option body colours – Phantom Black Pearl and the new Serenity White Pearl finish.  

The exterior changes for the Drive-N Limited Edition include the 19-inch forged alloy wheels which are finished in a dark bronze matte as opposed to the standard i30 N's dark satin grey matte, black Hyundai emblems front and rear, red and gold decals on the side, front and rear, and two dedicated Drive-N badges in dark bronze matte on the wings that also display the GPS coordinates of the home of the N models, the Hyundai Motor Europe Test Centre at Nürburgring in Germany.

Interior changes for the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition include standard N Light Seats with red accents to the back rest, an Alcantara covered steering wheel, gear stick gaiter, handbrake lever and centre console armrest all finished with red stitching. The red theme continues with red seatbelts, red N and Drive Mode steering wheel controls and exclusive Drive-N Limited Edition carpet mats that feature a unique Drive-N logo and completed with red and white stitching.

Each Drive-N Limited Edition is also outfitted with a unique numbered badge, depicting its position among the limited production volume of 800 total units. Alongside the UK's 75 vehicles, various European markets will receive a total of 545 vehicles, with Hyundai Australia taking the remaining 180 units.

As well as exclusive styling features, the i30 N Drive-N Limited Edition is also equipped with additional safety equipment not yet seen on the i30N range including Blind Spot Collision Avoidance Asist (BCCA), Rear Collision Avoidance Assist (RCA) and Safe Exit Assist (SEA).
