When combined with the electric motor, the end result is about 245 hp.

Well, the 2012 Hyundai i30 (Elantra Touring) is actually not a new concept, since it only has different names from the original Elantra model. When it comes to American market, the Elantra becomes Elantra touring.  Although there are no official statements or confirmations from the company, it seems that the so called new model will still have the same look of the previous Elantra model. However, the company seems to add more change or improvements for the car, with the considerations that the ride will be launched for American markets. There will be more addition on the body style with wagon or hatchback model. There’s no certain news about the success of this ride, considering that sedan model has been many and may have come in more attractive designs than this one.

Well, it seems that we just have to wait and see for the design of this Touring model. Hopefully, the company has time to provide better technologies and features to make this ride more attractive.
