Tony Whitehorn, the president and CEO of Hyundai Motor UK, said: ‘The introduction of New i40 Tourer and Saloon means the Hyundai range now has a fresher and more dynamic look, with changes aimed to appeal particularly to the requirements of our fleet customers. The addition of the SE Nav as a new trim level provides a clear differentiator from the traditional SE models and identifies the standardisation of our highly-capable navigation system.’
The New i40 has a choice of three engines; a 1.7-litre diesel with an output of 115PS with six-speed manual transmission, a 1.7-litre diesel with an output of 141PS and six-speed transmission; and a 1.7-litre diesel engine delivering up to 141PS with seven-speed DCT.
The car has a redesigned front grille and front bumper, along with reshaped front and rear lights. It is now available to order at Hyundai showrooms.
