TRANSMISSIONS

6 speed manual and automatic (with sequential shift mode) deliver smooth shifts and greater efficiency. Automatic transmissions feature steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters which add a tactile feel to your drive by enabling fingertip up and downshifting for even greater control and a sportier driving feel.

ELECTRIC PARK BRAKE AND HILL-START ASSIST CONTROL

The electric park brake eliminates the need for a parking brake lever or pedal. The Auto Hold function, when activated, automatically holds the vehicle stationary (no time limit) after the brake is applied, allowing the driver to take their foot off the brake. The vehicle is held stationary until the driver sets off again.

The Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) features an anti-roll back feature, which prevents the vehicle from rolling backwards for up to two seconds on hills.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION

For drivers who demand maximum driving pleasure, Hyundai offers a six-speed manual transmission, with the Active model demonstrating important gains in fuel economy. Overseas model shown.

AUSTRALIAN-TUNED RIDE & HANDLING

The i40 Tourer features a new MacPherson strut front suspension setup which significantly reduces cornering lean and improves overall handling. A multi-link rear suspension setup is used for its outstanding ride characteristics. Amplitude Selective Dampers (ASD) are standard across all trim levels on the i40. These suspension dampers provide a smooth comfortable ride under cruising conditions, whilst providing superior vehicle dynamics under demanding driving conditions.
Extensive local tuning of the suspension setup has been carried out to optimise the suspension for Australian conditions.

CORNERING BRAKE CONTROL

The i40 makes use of the new Cornering Brake Control (CBC) system, which provides side-to-side brake pressure proportioning using EBD, resulting in optimised vehicle deceleration and stability whilst braking into a turn.
