The Hyundai i40 Tourer diesel is an attractive option for those who eschew SUVs.
The 2015 Hyundai i40 sedan and Tourer range is now cheaper, more streamlined and has better fuel economy. It's still a sharp-looker, too.
In Melbourne on an overnight trip, I took the i40 Tourer around town mixing in peak-hour traffic and freeway driving.
Medium is the new large. By 2017 when the large car segment will have been thrown into further disarray with the loss of the Ford Falcon and question marks surrounding imported replacements for the Holden Commodore and Toyota Aurion, it really has to be. The mass exodus from large six-cylinder family sedans that has happened in recent years, however, hasn’t been the expected boon for medium cars...
It’s one of many almost forgotten cars in an almost forgotten segment. Medium passenger cars are being outsold dramatically by small cars and all forms of SUV’s. We’re casting many of them out into the wasteland but are we making a mistake? This is the Hyundai i40 and if you take a closer look, it will give you a lot to think about...
People aren’t buying as many mid-sized sedans as they used to, but ironically enough, there have never been more great options out there. One of the underrated competitors is the Euro-styled Hyundai i40, which has received a mid-life update that brings a number of worthy drivetrain and suspension tweaks, and some welcome price cuts...
At the risk of flogging the proverbial horse, we often wonder why more people don’t buy mid-sized wagons over medium SUVs. We understand the appeal of the latter body type’s high riding position, with its greater visibility, ease of access and feeling of safety. But with some equanimity we'd counter that passenger car alternatives often offer more, for less...
Australia’s mid-sized sedan market might be smaller than a few years ago, but Hyundai is one brand that for good or bad remains intent on covering the bases. In one corner is the recently released Sonata, which we’ve compared favourably against a number of segment rivals such as the Mazda 6 (as you can read here)...

A new or updated Hyundai i40 Tourer has been spied undergoing testing in southern Europe. With the heavy amount of disguise layered on top of the new Hyundai i40 wagon, we can make out the car's overall profile, but not much else. Up front, the new i40 should feature a version of Hyundai's cascading grille, a thinner headlight setup, and LED driving and fog lights...

The Hyundai i40 sedan and wagon range has this week received its first significant update since it arrived here in October 2011. One part of Hyundai’s mid-sized passenger car arsenal alongside the Sonata, the $32,490 — $43,990 (plus on-road costs) i40 line-up has been simplified through the removal of 50 per cent of the variants available, and is more affordably priced than before by between $1500 and $3600...
Hyundai has revealed the look, as well as some of the specifics, of the facelifted Hyundai i40 sedan and wagon that are set to reach Australia during the first half of 2015. Visually the revised i40 features a new front bumper assembly incorporating a prominent hexagonal grille and, for high-spec models, freshly minted LED foglights...
great car to cruise in style.The Hyundai i40 was even designed and engineered in Europe. As the model name suggests, the i40 is smaller than the i45 – though not by a large margin. At 4740mm long, the i40 is 80mm shorter than Hyundai's larger medium car. The i40 is also 20mm narrower...
A nice car, with great features, very economical , low maintenance and very reliable. A car that will not let you down and get you from a to b.Hyundai's i40 is a car that seriously warrants inclusion on the mid-sized passenger car buyer's shopping list, but is so often overlooked. There's nothing wrong with the car, but it always seems to be the bridesmaid to rivals like the Mazda 6...
