There is no doubt that the much awaited Hyundai i30 model was well received around the world.
Since its launch in October 2007, the Hyundai i30 is sweeping more and more awards from every country the vehicle is launched in. The largest number of awards were received from Australia with no less than seven awards, received in 2008 alone, just for the Hyundai i30 and its diesel version. These awards include Green Car of the Year and Australia’s Car of the Year from Cars Guide, Best Car in its class from 2008 QUIT Targa West Rally, ECO Car Best Car at 2008 Transport Awards, Best Car in ECO Car magazine, Australia’s Best Car and NRMA Cost of Ownership Award.
The i30 carried off another three awards in New Zealand, namely the AA Motoring Excellence Best Compact Car, the AA motoring Excellence Best Car overall and the 2008 Small Car of the Year. Europe responded by giving the i30 5-star rating at the EuroNCAP as well as Spain’s Car of the Year award, Poland’s Customer Gold Laurel award, and the UK’s Small Family Car award from What Car?
Other awards came from the Middle East amongst which was the prestigious Autocar 2008 Middle East award. These awards all add up to the previous awards that this car had received when it was launched – Cars Guide 2007 award, Car of the Year, Cars Guide 2007 Green Car of the Year award, and the Green Fleet production Category 2007 World Solar Challenge award.
It is therefore no wonder that this magnificent car is doing very well in the local market as well. To be able to test-drive this multi-award winning vehicle, contact the Hyundai team at their showroom in Valley Road B’Kara to see for yourself why it keeps sweeping every award available.
