Hyundai unveiled its next generation i30 at the2011 Frankfurt International Motor Show. The new i30 was designed and engineered at the Hyundai Motor Europe Technical Centre inRüsselsheim, Germany, and offers a choice of four engines with a total of six power options and CO2 emissions below 100 g/km due to an upgraded 1.6-litre diesel unit. The next generation i30 went on sale in Europe early in 2012, as a five-door hatchback. It is produced in Europe at the company's manufacturing facility inNošovice, Czech Republic.
It was launched in South Korea since October 20, 2011, and it is the second model under Hyundai's Premium Youth Lab brand. The new Korean spec i30 is offered with a 1.6-litreGamma GDi engine and a 1.6L VGT diesel engine.
The second generation i30 became available in the United States in the summer of 2012 for the 2013 model year, as theHyundai Elantra GT, replacing the Elantra Touring nameplate. It made a premiere at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show, along with the new Hyundai Elantra Coupe,[25] featuring the same 1.8-litre Nu MPI engine as the original Elantra MD sedan. In 2014, the 1.8L is replaced by the2,0L Nu GDI engine, due to critics' opinions that the 1.8-litre wasn't sporty enough for the GT moniker. Available in a single trim level, the Elantra GT offered several different option packages which added additional features. A glass panoramic roof is available as an option.
In Malaysia, the second generation i30 was previewed during the 2013 Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show and officially launched in March 2014.[26][27] For Malaysia, the i30 used a 1.8L engine and a torsion beam setup for the rear suspension.[28]
An estate, or wagon, version of the second-generation i30 was premiered at the2012 Geneva Motor Show.[29] This model is also known as thei30 Tourer in some markets.
The wagon shares the same wheelbase as the hatchback and adds 185 mm in length. The increased length yields an extra 150 litres of boot capacity, taking the total to 528 litres. With the rear seats folded, the total cargo capacity is 1,642 litres, an increase of 326 litres over the hatch.

Hyundai unveiled the third generation i30 at the2016 Paris Motor Show.[35] The car introduced a new design language for the brand called "Cascading grille".[35] It is launched for North American market in 2017 as 2018 model asElantra GT.[36] For the 2019 model year, for European markets only, Hyundai standardized the i30 Fastback front design, for all i30 versions. (Excluding the i30N-line and i30N models)
The Hyundai i30 Fastback replaced Elantra in EU markets where it was being sold until Autumn 2017, where it was being presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

In some markets, the third-generation Hyundai i30 Hatchback is sold as theHyundai Elantra GT. In the U.S., the Elantra GT is available in two distinct models: Elantra GT and Elantra GT Sport.
The base Elantra GT is powered by a naturally-aspirated 2.0L inline four-cylinder (I4) engine that produces 161 hp (120 kW) at 6,200 rpm, and 150 lb⋅ft (203 N⋅m) of torque at 4,700 rpm. This engine is shared with the standardHyundai Elantra Sedan. The performance-oriented Elantra GT Sport, in addition to replacing the standard reartorsion-beam suspension with an independent suspension,[36] is powered by a turbocharged 1.6L I4 engine that produces 201 hp (150 kW) at 6,000 rpm, and 195 lb⋅ft (264 N⋅m) of torque at 1,500-4,500 rpm. This engine is the same engine as equipped in theKia Forte Hatchback SX Turbo and theKia Soul Exclaim (!) Turbo. Transmission choices for the Elantra GT are a standard six-speed manual transmission, or an optional six-speed automatic transmission. Transmission choices for the Elantra GT Sport include a standard six-speed manual transmission, or an optional seven-speedDual Clutch automatic (DCT) transmission. "Drive Mode Select" is standard on cars equipped with either the automatic transmission, or the Dual Clutch (DCT) automatic transmission.
According to theCar and Driver, the GT Sport fell "short of delivering the buttoned-down refinement found in the class leaders when attacking twisting tarmac" and its body leans more than they would like in turns, "the electrically assisted steering lacks the precision and feel of theHonda Civic Sport hatchback and theGTI".[37]
For 2019, the Elantra GT Sport was replaced with the Elantra GTN-Line. The N-Line trim improves upon the Sport model with additional body welds, substantially stiffer springs, firmer engine and transmission mounts, a larger rear anti-roll bar, and revised damper tuning to reduce body lean and improve handling. The Elantra GT N-Line is similar to that of the i30 N-Line.[38]
The Elantra GT was discontinued in the US and Canada after the 2020 model year.[39][40] Hyundai directed buyers to its Venue and Kona crossovers instead, as well as the updated Elantra sedan and Veloster.
