It’s all in the family for Hyundai, which is currently working on three mid-cycle facelifts, including the D-segment i40 that we showed you on Monday, the Veloster coupe, and the C-segment i30 series pictured in these fresh spy shots.
We nabbed Hyundai testing two i30 five-door hatchbacks, but it’s pretty much a given that the other two body styles of the series, the three-door Coupe and the station-wagon Tourer, will also benefit from similar revisions.
As expected, the i30 facelift gets the same new, six-point front grille with horizontal bars as the bigger i40, along with a restyled front bumper.
Later-stage prototypes may reveal cosmetic changes to the rear of the car (we can’t see any on the silver i30, and the other tester was fully covered), while we should mention that the dashboard was covered on both i30s, hinting at some interior updates, possibly to the center console and the infotainment system.
