Safety

Cutting-edge safety and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems.

With Hyundai Smart Sense, our cutting-edge Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, the i30 N has been upgraded with the very latest safety and driving assist features for added peace of mind.

  1. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA).

    Sensing the road ahead with a camera, the FCA system automatically brakes when it detects sudden braking by the car ahead, or pedestrians on the road.

  2. Lane Following Assist (LFA).

    The i30 N features Lane Following Assist (LFA). When activated, it keeps the car centred in its lane at speeds between 0 and 180 km/h on highways and city streets.

  3. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA).

    Using two radar sensors in the lower rear bumper, the system warns you of traffic in the blind spot area. Should you set the turn indicator in such a situation, it will sound an acoustic alert and brake to prevent collision. Available with N DCT.

  4. Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA).

    When reversing out of areas with low visibility, the system not only warns the driver if vehicles approach from the side – it also applies the brakes automatically. Available with N DCT.
