And further to what I said in "i30 reviews for different markets" in i30 News & Reviews (I thought I'd better post this in here), I'm surprised that the salesmen I spoke to today weren't aware that the i40 sedan is coming, especially given that it was officially released by Hyundai to the media on the Gold Coast last month as reported in the link below. There's even a video taken at the launch of an i40 sedan being driven on to the stage in front of the media contingent, so it appears that it is definitely coming.  :sweating:

A couple of weeks ago the saleman in Launceston said the i40 sedan was coming soon (so I'm surprised the WA guys didn't know  :eek:)

I hope the premium sedan comes as a Manual (That would be an Awesome car)

Being as the Sedan is only going to be a CRDi I still think it is possible  :happydance:
