Uncompromising safety<br />
Just as <strong>the</strong> i30 hatch and wagon are designed to be <strong>the</strong> epitome <strong>of</strong> style, comfort, space, power and economy, <strong>the</strong>y also set<br />
extremely high standards for safety. Passenger safety is essential and Hyundai places huge emphasis on helping <strong>drivers</strong><br />
to avoid accidents from happening in <strong>the</strong> first place. The i30 hatch and wagon are fitted with several remarkable features<br />
that help <strong>the</strong> driver to maintain control even in critical situations. These include <strong>the</strong> reassurance <strong>of</strong> ESP (Electronic Stability<br />
Programme), an advanced safety feature designed to avoid serious accidents and Electronic Brake-<strong>For</strong>ce Distribution (EBD)<br />
that applies optimum pressure to individual brakes in emergency braking situations.<br />
The i30 hatch and wagon’s safety also includes BAS (Brake Assist), a system that will apply maximum force to <strong>the</strong> brakes<br />
during emergency stopping situations. These braking technologies work in harmony with <strong>the</strong> vehicles ABS (Anti-skid<br />
Braking System)<br />
Safety is built into every aspect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> i30 hatch and wagon and it begins with a computer designed and physically tested<br />
rigid passenger cell, load distribution paths and impact absorption. This all works in harmony with <strong>the</strong> SRS dual front, side<br />
and front-to-rear curtain air bags to lessen <strong>the</strong> effects <strong>of</strong> a collision. In <strong>the</strong> unfortunate event <strong>of</strong> a crash or sudden impact,<br />
front seat belt pretensioners and three point diagonal ELR seatbelts will hold and support all occupants, while load limiters<br />
provide a slow and steady release at a safe steady speed, reducing <strong>the</strong> chance <strong>of</strong> torso damage. No detail has been<br />
overlooked to ensure <strong>the</strong> safety <strong>of</strong> you and your passengers. The i30 hatch and wagon also contains a separate safety pack<br />
that’s included in every variant. Hopefully you’ll never need it, but it’s nice to know it’s <strong>the</strong>re, just in case.
