Hi everyone,

I am in the market for a brand new Hyundai i30. I have experience with the previous generation (a 2016 i30, but with an automatic transmission). The 2016 auto was a fantastic car, but I'd like to get a manual one (new), as I'd like to have a bit more fun while driving!

I have a question for all of you who have an i30 (PD: 2017 onwards): is the manual transmission a good manual transmission? More specifically, is the clutch good (good biting point, easy to use etc.); does it have a good gear stick that's easy to use; and are the shifts smooth? Anything else you want to add please feel free.

Thank you very much to anyone who can help!

Cheers


Edit: Sorry everyone I forgot to mention that I'm in the market for the "Active" variant (nothing else, can't be buying the higher-end versions!)
