The 2026 Hyundai i30 Hatch is a practical five-seat hatchback powered by a 2.0-litre petrol engine producing 120kW and 203Nm, making it an excellent choice for daily commuters and small families seeking affordable, economical transport with strong safety credentials (5-star ANCAP). Its standout strength is genuine value, delivering a 395-litre boot, respectable 7.3L/100km fuel economy, and competitive running costs around $2920 annually, backed by a five-year warranty. One consideration: the 1200kg towing capacity is modest, so if you regularly haul trailers or caravans, you'll want to verify load requirements carefully against this limit.
Configure the i30The 2026 Hyundai i30 Hatch Active is a practical five-seat hatchback powered by a 2-litre petrol engine delivering 120kW and 203Nm, making it an ideal choice for daily commuters and small families seeking affordable, efficient transport. Its standout strength is the combination of genuine value and safety credentials, with a five-star ANCAP rating, five-year warranty and genuine running costs around $2951 annually, plus a respectable 395-litre boot and 1200kg towing capacity for versatility. The one consideration for Australian buyers is that the 7.4L/100km fuel consumption is respectable rather than exceptional in its class, so if efficiency is your priority, you'll want to test-drive it against some equally-priced rivals.
Configure the ActiveThe 2026 Hyundai i30 Hatch Elite is a practical five-seat hatchback powered by a 2-litre petrol engine producing 120kW, suited to buyers seeking affordable urban transport with genuine towing capability (1200kg) and class-leading safety credentials (5-star ANCAP). Its standout strength is the combination of genuine value and reliability-a comprehensive 5-year warranty, modest running costs around $2951 annually, and respectable fuel efficiency of 7.4L/100km make it compelling for budget-conscious buyers. The main consideration is that at 120kW, the engine feels modest compared to rivals, and with a 395-litre boot, it's tighter than some competitors if you regularly transport larger loads.
Configure the EliteThe 2026 Hyundai i30 Hatch N Line is a sporty front-wheel-drive hatchback that suits buyers wanting genuine performance style without premium pricing, offering 150kW and 265Nm from its 1.6-litre petrol engine with an 7-speed DCT. Its standout strength is the combination of 5-star ANCAP safety, a 5-year warranty, and modest running costs around $2,857 annually, making it practical daily transport with attitude. One consideration is the 395-litre boot-tight for larger loads compared to rivals-so assess whether the space suits your lifestyle before committing.
Configure the N LineThe i30 N DCT swaps the manual for an eight-speed wet dual-clutch with launch control, N Power Shift and N Grin Shift, dropping the 0-100km/h claim to 5.3 seconds. It keeps the same 206kW/392Nm 2.0-litre turbo, E-LSD and adaptive suspension, so it trades some involvement for quicker, more accessible everyday pace. As with all i30 N hatches it currently has no ANCAP rating, so safety is shown as no data.
Configure the N DCTThe i30 N Manual is the entry into Hyundai's hot-hatch range, pairing a 206kW/392Nm 2.0-litre turbo with a six-speed manual, an electronic limited-slip diff and adaptive dampers. It is the purist's pick of the i30 N line-up and the only way to get a clutch pedal in a sub-$55k performance hatch from a mainstream brand. Note the i30 N hatch no longer carries a current ANCAP rating, so safety is rated as no data rather than five stars.

Hyundai Australia relaunches the Palisade Calligraphy Black Ink on the second-generation body from $92,400 before on-roads for the eight-seater, or $93,400 with the captain-chair seven-seat layout. About $2,572 above the standard Calligraphy Hybrid at $89,828 and $15,900 above the base Elite at $76,500. Same 2.5L turbo hybrid AWD as the rest of the range: 245kW/460Nm combined, six-speed automatic, claimed 6.8 L/100km. Black theme adds gloss black 21-inch alloys, blacked-out grille, badges, window surrounds, roof rails, mirror caps and lower bumpers, with two paint choices only, Abyss Black and Creamy White. Cabin sticks with dual 12.3-inch displays, 14-speaker sound, Nappa leather with metallic black trim, satellite navigation, power front seats and V2L. Palisade sales are up 38.1 per cent for the first half of 2026 and this Black Ink is the visual halo. ANCAP not yet rated on the second-generation car. LCT slug is around $3,470 on the eight-seat because the hybrid does not qualify as fuel-efficient. Cross-shop the Kluger Grande Hybrid ($85,135), Sorento GT-Line Hybrid ($74,540) and Mazda CX-80 GT before signing.

Genesis Australia locks in the GV60 Magma sticker. $130,000 before on-roads for a dual-motor AWD twin-under-the-skin of the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. Same 84kWh pack, same 448kW/700Nm normal or 478kW/790Nm Boost Mode outputs, same 3.4-second 0 to 100km/h, but wrapped in a Magma-only front bumper, forged 21-inch wheels on 275mm Pirelli P Zeros, a fixed rear wing, Magma Orange hero paint and Genesis' 27-inch curved display with a three-circle Magma driving mode. 800V charging peaks around 350kW, 10 to 80 per cent in about 18 minutes. WLTP range not yet finalised, ANCAP not yet rated. Matte paint is the only priced option at $4,000. Warranty is 5 years unlimited-km with 5 years or 75,000km of free scheduled servicing and 10 years of roadside. That is a $19,000 walk over the Ioniq 5 N for the same peak numbers and $26,100 over a Tesla Model Y Performance for a matching 3.4-second window. Orders open now.

Hyundai locks in MY26 Staria pricing with a first-ever hybrid across the passenger and Load van ranges. Staria Lounge Hybrid $73,740, Load Hybrid $53,490 and Load Premium Hybrid $61,240, all before on-roads. New 1.6L turbo-petrol hybrid pushes 180kW/366Nm combined through a six-speed auto to the front wheels, so the AWD lever stays on the retained 2.2L turbo-diesel. Passenger range simplified: Elite and Highlander shelved, Lounge takes over the top with seven Nappa captain-chair seats. Retained 3.5L V6 (200kW) still stands on the base Staria petrol. 2,500kg braked tow rating carries over. A 160kW Staria Load EV is due later in 2026 to chase the Kia PV5 Cargo and Ford E-Transit Custom. ANCAP rating is still 5-star for now with a retest under way as the current certificate nears expiry. Five year unlimited-km vehicle warranty, 8yr/160,000km hybrid battery warranty.
