The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS hits 100 km/h in 8.51 s versus 17.58 s for the i10 1.0 MPi 4 Seater (5AMT). At this point, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS leads by 9.07 s and sits roughly 53 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS is doing 116 km/h against 92 km/h for the i10 1.0 MPi 4 Seater (5AMT). The gap is 3.46 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.

At 400 metres standing start, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS crosses the line in 16.32 s versus 21.49 s. The 5.17 s gap represents roughly 148 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 164 km/h versus 123 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the i30 Wagon 1.5 T-GDi 48V 160 PS finishes in 29.16 s versus 38.53 s, with a 9.37 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.98 kg/hp vs 13.76 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Unknown).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 31.23 seconds. The 9.07 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
