The new Hyundai i30 N TCR went on display for the
first time at a TCR series event in the Nurburgring. Hyundai Motorsport’s first
dedicated track racer was showcased at the ADAC TCR Germany paddock at the
Green Hell, building the interest of potential customers. The TCR series has
already grown into one of the biggest championships, with nearly 40 drivers on
the grid for a pair of 30-minute races.
Hyundai Motorsport plans to launch their new TCR
warrior on the race-car market in time for the 2018 racing season. Apart from
the aggressive bodywork, the new i30 N TCR also wore a fresh livery that
promotes the N range of high-performance road models, which is currently
occupied by a single model, the i30 N hot hatch.
Painted in Hyundai N’s trademark Sky Blue over the
darker Hyundai Blue and with Active Red highlights, the new i30 N TCR just came
out of an extensive test session during the Misano 24 Hours. The first i30 N
TCR customer cars are going to be delivered this December.
