Hyundai i20N and I30N Discontinued in Europe :
After many months of rumours that that the facelift for Hyundai’s Hot Hatches (the i30N and i20N) was just around the corner, then for almost as long the counter argument that the models were about to be discontinued the facts have emerged.
Hyundai have confirmed that as of February 2024 the petrol ‘N’ models of their vehicles have been discontinued in Europe. Hyundai will now focus their N-Car division on EVs and continue towards their carbon goal of Net Zero.
In an official statement, Hyundai said: ‘Production of the ICE N models has ceased for the European market starting from February, in line with our commitment to offering a zero-tailpipe-emission line-up to our customers by 2035 and to operating 100 per cent carbon neutrally by 2045. Going forward in Europe, Hyundai is developing Hyundai N as a pioneer of high-performance EVs. Our customers will benefit from technological developments that will make EVs even more attractive in the future.’
