Thanks for doing this test. I've always wondered how the FL manual stacks up against the FL DCT. I chose the manual for the fun (and nostalgia) factor, recognising it'd be slower than DCT for sure. I've never had the space to test the launch, so thank you 😊

Crazy how much quicker the DCT is. This is pretty much in line with your testing of the focus ST manual which makes sense. Slightly more aggressive gearing at medium speeds though.

The i30 N is such an awesome car. I hope in the future it gets a digital dash and maybe awd. They should also put an N badge on the steering wheel

I think there are also many people who still appreciate a nice analog dash. Yea digital dash can show more, but there's something to a physical needle =). AWD maybe, but I think they use FWD to keep the price and weight down.

Crazy how a difference in transmission changes a cars performance, we all love manuals but the DCT especially Hyundai’s wet-clutch DCT is a game changer, the results between the two transmissions are night and day. A full second quicker from a launch and half a second quicker from a roll on and 1/4 mile time, absolutely ridiculous. 80s-early 2000s manual was king but modern day performance automatics easily trump them.
