Hyundai i40 Review
The executive Hyundai i40 is a sleek and stylish luxury vehicle that brings a touch of class to every journey. Whether its business meetings or a family holiday, the i40 is at home thanks to its bold on-the-road presence and beautifully crafted premium interior.
On the outside, Hyundai’s fluidic sculpture design takes shape with the i40’s sweeping lines and exacting creases creating a stunning and muscular visual tension. The standard chrome window surrounds accentuate the i40’s flowing silhouette in both saloon and estate form too.
Engines range from a 133hp 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol unit to an effortlessly torquey 1.7-litre CRDi diesel, making the motorway cruise a breeze. The i40’s range of engines are efficient and economical too – the 1.7-litre CRDi produces from as little as 113g/km in super-green Blue Drive guise.
Inside, an ergonomic interior compliments modern styling and premium comfort. Fitted as standard to all i40 is Bluetooth connectivity with voice recognition and steering wheel audio control. Many trims also feature cruise control, touchscreen sat-nav with rear view parking camera, parking guidance system and seven speakers including amp and subwoofer. The i40 certainly has premium levels of technology to back up its superb engineering.
With gloss black and contrasting alloy-effect trim and a leather steering wheel and gear knob as standard, the i40’s interior has a wonderful tactility to extract the most from the brilliant driving experience too.
There are no worries about safety either. Hyundai’s executive i40 receives a full five star Euro NCAP crash test rating. With seven airbags – including front, front side, driver's knee and full length curtain airbags – ABS with Brake Assist System (BAS), ESP with Vehicle Stability Management (VSM), and front seatbelt pre-tensioners and load limiters, the i40 is alive with technology to keep you safe on the road.
Including a Thatcham Category 1 approved alarm and immobiliser, plus the backup of Hyundai's five-year unlimited mileage warranty, the Hyundai i40 is as reassuring as it is robust, stylish and technologically advanced. Check out the full range today at T W White & Sons.
