just thinking of how (im)possible it would be to get that central screen retrofitted. can't stand those bezels and this one looks better(all matter of personal preference of course)

Take note of the bigger infotainment screen as well as the fully digital instrument cluster.

It's not fully digital on the picture.

This looks like the Santa Fe’s instrument cluster

Although I kind of like the versatility of a digital cluster...nothing beats the analog rev counter, for my taste.

That Santa Fe cluster is a disaster . OK, its a SUV and the speedo takes centre. The distorted tacho, fuel and temp gauges look terrible. Obviously this is the diesel, since the redline is 4500.

Analog dials 4TW
what I personally don’t like about the new headunit are those touch buttons. At least it has a volume knob.

This is not the same digital cluster that's utilized in the new Sonata. V

I believe the digital dash will be more inline with the Sonata, then the Santa Fe. Hyundai has actually added the digital dash to 4 or 5 different models. Each one is rather distinctive and different from one to another.

Damn, I dislike the all-digital speedos.

Nothing beats a physical (analog) speedo- and tachometer.

Same here mate

The Sonatas dashboard is more along the lines of what’s in the palisade. It may even be the same unit since they both share a lot of the same features like blind spot monitoring and highway drive assist etc. But the Santa Fe’s dash is a total mess with a combination of analog tach and digital center and if you look close enough at the spy shot you’ll notice it has a physical Tach on the left hand side similiar to the SF.

Nice find! New rear bumper and lights...let's see how they go with that.

One thing you can almost guarantee though... is that the price/s will rise. Such is life.

 

[glennbot]

Early reports indicated a possible 20kw+ increase in power but now only ~7kw?
If Hyundai are fitting a larger turbo then you would expect more than this?

Maybe they are under rating the real increase.

 

[SlipperySEAL]

Definitely will look at the new one. Just love the dealer 10 months later 10K off value on trade in! 2700miles.

I would assume they would increase the power somewhat, to keep up the «silly» competition to be marginally better than the competition and to satisfy the reviewers and buyers who want to have something that is «better» than last model.

Don’t expect any real life noticable performance increase (then you need to go DSG, but what is the fun in that?)

IMHO, the new i30N will probably be slightly faster, more refined, more boring and less «raw» that on their first try. I am afraid the bean counters will take over more and more, after the N-concept is proven to be successful. Hope I am wrong.

If you want a great driving experience and a bargain, I would go for the first version i30N. But I am old fashioned and likes an N-gaging car .

 

[r_anderson96]

Although this is only the N line, I'd assume most of the gadgets and styling would be the same if not similar to the N performance face lift! Digital Instrument cluster looks quite nice!

*Edit* I watched til the end and saw a close up of Digital Dash - It's horrific. I'm not a fan of the infotainment either, especially the touch screen buttons along the bottom! Prefer some physical analog engagement.

 

[N-Raged]

Front lights look good, but I think the current front end still looks better, not a fan of the rear lights, and I hate the digital dash, can’t beat an analog one, overall I still prefer my MY18 pre GPF model

 

[sgfastback]

Apart from the horrible digital dash, ELECTRONIC HANDBRAKE . This is true of the current N-Line in Oz on the auto version. The manual version has a mechanical handbrake, but misses out on virtually every safety feature.

 

[Mightymoo]

FRONT:
- Wider/more pinched grille/lights. (trying to hard?...)

- Extra lights removed (like those small lights)

- Day time running lights more modern (not sure if cooler, though...)

-Waffle galore on the front (much nicer on todays i30N).




REAR:
- The rear has been messed up (lifting the black plastic upwards and the longer (and reversed) stripe.



- «Diffuser» changed/wider (looks cheap and off somehow).

INTERIOR:
- Door on the storage compartment under the climate vents (this is great)


- Upgraded entertainment system with bigger screen (looks good, even if current screen is big enough).


- Mostly digital instrument cluster (current hybrid analog/digital is much nicer, IMHO)

- Digital handbrake (not my choice)


All in all, pretty disappointed with the facelift, if the N-line is any indication what to expect for the i30N.

If I was in the marked for a i30N, I would pickup the 2019 version for a much better price, when 2020 is released.
