Hyundai have an ace up their sleeve for 2017 Geneva Motor Show - a never-before seen hydrogen-powered concept car. Said to
be previewing the future in fuel cell technology, the study will be shown
during the company's press conference, next Tuesday.
The highlight of the event, will be the new
generation Hyundai i30 Tourer. Based on its hatch sibling, the wagon offers an
uncompromising boot space of 602 liters, expandable to 1,650
liters with the rear seats folded.
Challenging the likes of other compact estates, such
as the Volkswagen Golf, Ford Focus and Opel/Vauxhall Astra, it will go on sale
across Europe during the second half of the year, with pricing to be announced
close to that date.
Future buyers will get to choose from a selection of
turbocharged petrol engines, with outputs ranging between 118 horses and 138
horses, alongside three diesels, based on the 1.6-liter unit - producing 94 HP,
108 HP and 131 HP, respectively. The units will be offered with a standard
6-speed manual or an optional dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
Hyundai will live stream the entire press conference
online, so make sure you set an alarm and come back here on March 7, to see
what the Korean company has in store.
