Hyundai I40 Facelift

Sedan Class was enriched. The Korean market emergence of Hyundai I40 "sharpens" more competition in this class.
With a nice design, i40 attack class with all "speed ahead". A top version was tested, under the hood being 1.7-liter diesel unit capable of developing 136 hp power and 325 Nm of torque.
Lines and sharp edges are a design motif. Due to their designers were able to provide a picture Korean model aggressive yet elegant. In the front of the overall size of the radiator grille underlines this. Grille, which makes us think as a shark's mouth, exudes an air of aggressive, but because curves aggression is transformed into elegance.

Overall, the exterior Hyundai i40's development clearly demonstrates the huge Korean manufacturer. If a few years ago Hyundai was still a brand that was something special, behold, today Hyundai is starting to be a name that comes with products becoming more competitive in all markets, especially in all classes of cars.

If the exterior has a certain prestige, to see how the Korean model is presented in Chapter interior. It is true that I had a car with a very high level of equipment. But, even so we can realize that Hyundai, and producer, wants to "aim" very high, i40 is merely an example. The emphasis is on comfort in all respects. From ergonomics to space and equipment, finishing with suspension settings, the Hyundai i40 is proving to be a comfortable car. And do not say these things just to praise the car.

Here are some features that show these things: electronic handbrake function "Auto Hold" hill start assist, 7 airbags (driver and passenger airbags with front + side airbags, curtain airbags and airbag driver knee), active head restraints front / off automatic headlights, front windows and windshield sunscreen dimming rear view mirror with rear camera display, rain sensor, leather upholstery seats

The test car had a very interesting equipment. When you connect your phone via Bluetooth calling is agent contacts through voice command. More precisely, press the call button on the steering wheel, the system asks if you want to dial by number or by name. I was a little surprised when I saw that the system works very well, even if the name is Romanian and the whole "conversation" with the system behaves in English.

Driving position is like a little high, but this may be an advantage when it comes to small people like stature. In terms of ergonomics, i40 offers everything exactly as you expect. Perhaps, when people quarrel, placing the rear window defrost button is not very inspired, placed more towards the "direction" the front passenger than the driver.
