VIDEO: Hyundai teases i30 N again

Hyundai has released a third teasing video of its forthcoming flagship i30 N hot hatch.

The video shows the i30 N being driven hard on public roads as engineers put the finishing touch to the firm's first ever Volkswagen Golf GTI rival.

Previously, the Korean car-maker has teased the i30 N's engine note and shown its hot hatch, which arrives in 2017, testing on the Nurburgring. It’s even been caught by our spy photographer hot weather testing in the US.

Each time, all the teasing videos have shown the i30 N fully camouflaged and the latest video is, alas, no exception.

Shown driven hard on winding public roads, the latest video update of the i30 N’s progress attempts to demonstrate the hatch’s agility and handling prowess.

In the video tease we also see the i30 N's 2.0-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine will have a high 6750rpm cut-out.

Mid-way through the film the test driver is also seen stabbing a button marked 'REV' which is thought to be a new rev-matching system for perfect down-changes with the six-speed manual transmission.

As well as the manual, a dual-clutch automatic transmission is also thought to be in development.

Under the bonnet both versions will be powered by a 2.0-litre turbo that should push out around 200kW/300Nm.

Hyundai is expected to unveil the i30 N at the Paris motor show on September 29.

Expect more teases before then.
