COMMENTS

Adult occupant
The passenger compartment of the i30 remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good
protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger. Hyundai showed that a similar level of protection
would be provided for occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the side barrier test,
protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good. In the more severe side pole test,
protection of the chest was weak. The seat and head restraint provided good protection against whiplash injuries in
the event of a rear-end collision.

Child occupant
Based on dummy results in the dynamic tests, the i30 scored maximum points for its protection of both the 18 month
infant and the 3 year old child. In the frontal impact, forward movement of the head of the 3 year dummy, sat in a
forward facing restraint, was not excessive. In the side impact, both dummies were properly contained by the
protective shells of their restraints, minimising he likelihood of contact with parts of the car's interior. The passenger
airbag can be disabled by means of a switch, allowing a rearward facing child restraint to be used in the passenger
seat. The system provided clear information to the driver regarding the status of the airbag. There were clear
warnings of the dangers of using a reaward facing restraint in that seating position without having deactivated the
airbag.

Pedestrian
The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians and the car scored maximum points in this area. The front edge
of the bonnet provided predominantly good protection. In most areas where a child's head might strike, the bonnet
provided good protection but the protection of an adult's head was mixed.

Safety assist
Electronic stability control is standard equipment on the i30 and met Euro NCAP's requirements. A seatbelt reminder
is standard for the driver, front passenger and rear seats. A speed limitation device is available but was not assessed
by Euro NCAP as it is offered as an option.
