Crap, that is a huge amount of co2. A Golf R emits 177gr. So it will have a co2 tax of around 20.000€ here. :(

It depends which measure they are presenting. (NEDC or WLTP).
The current model measures 188g/km in WLTP while is being 'normalized' to 178g/km in NEDC - although while I read endless articles, I never understood how they come up with those relations.
If the configurator shows WLTP values, it seems that the manual has a slight reduction while the DCT is slightly higher. If it's the 'normalized' measure, then indeed it climbed up and that will 'hurt' the owners in some countries.

Also they say the fuel consumption is at 8l, and mine is at 11l last 7k km. So the C02 is through the roof.
 
Has anyone in the U.K. had information from dealerships? I have reached out multiple times, but had nothing back. I know we have been in lockdown but still... nothing!
 
To my surprise we also get I30N and I20N here in Sweden. Every information about N cars on swedish site was gone for months.

I20N From 24360€
I20N Performance From 25824€

I30N From 34110€
I30N Fastback From 35085€
I30N DCT From 35572€
No price on Fastback with DCT but it should be around 36550€.

Wouldn't it be nice if Hyundai launched their new/upgraded models simultaneously in every market, so cashed up enthusiastic buyers could find out all the relevant information at the same time... like the new i30N for instance. And better communication with customers that order a vehicle wouldnt go astray either!

Of course, it's far more enjoyable being involved with, and discussing the N here.
 
I wouldn't rely on sparse information for now. Mainly in online stores (car marketplaces, dealer websites, ...) there is a lot of wrong information (C02 emissions, fuel consumption, i20N with a 48V badge, wrong equipment, pictures showing i30 N-Line, ...) that they probably just added as a placeholder.

Even on the official Hyundai EU website it states:
Featuring lighting fast shifts and excellent power transmission, the new N DCT delivers excellent acceleration, taking you from 80-120 km/h in 3.5 secs (2). That's 3 seconds faster than the manual transmission.
[...]
2 The indicated acceleration of the N DCT is still tentative and needs to be confirmed after final homologation.
Whereas multiple sources claim the pre-facelift i30N (-5hp, manual) runs 80-100 km/h in 5.6s (which seems off and might be measured differently than the 80-120 km/h mentioned on the website), in 4s (3rd gear) and in 3.6s (3rd gear). It sounds to me (with the limited information we have) that this is pure marketing and compares different scenarios (e.g. 4th gear vs 3rd gear acceleration).

They claim you get better numbers from using a wet dual clutch over a manual, which could be true. But you will probably have to wait for confirmed / comparable tests to figure out how much the difference actually is.

EDIT:
I was wrong. The manual is 5.9 and the DCT 5.4 😅
That sounds much more reasonable.

I wrote to the lady of the car dealership and she received this video from her colleagues. Tuesday, when she's back at work, she drives it for the First time and then wants to record a real video of the sound 👍🏻this is a Video of the Sound in neutral.


Looking forward to more videos! The official media launch in Europe must be seriously close if dealers are able to drive their stock.
