Which version to choose

All listed Hyundai i40 versions are Sedan, FWD. Choice is engine, gearbox and the measured numbers.

Highest horsepower: 2.0 MT 178 hp (214 Nm, 9.7 s, 213 km/h) and 2.0 AT 178 hp (10.0 s, 211 km/h). 2.0 MT 177 hp matches 9.7 s and 214 Nm with 212 km/h. These three exist only in 1 generation. Restyling gasoline peak is 2.0 MT 165 hp: 9.8 s / 212 km/h vs 9.9 s / 210 km/h on the second 165 hp 2.0 MT row (15 hp more than restyling 2.0 MT 150 hp; 0–100 9.8 vs 10.4 s).

Highest torque: 1.7 DSG 141 hp at 340 Nm (two rows: 10.8 s / 203 km/h, kerb 1599, gross 2100 vs 11 s / 200 km/h, kerb 1614, gross 2150). That is 16 Nm above 1-generation 1.7 MT / 1.7 AT 136 hp (324 Nm) and 80 Nm above restyling-2 1.6 Diesel (280 Nm).

Lowest mixed litres/100 km: 1.7 MT 116 hp (vmax 190) at 4.3 (city 5.3, highway 3.7). The other 1.7 MT 116 hp (vmax 192) is 4.6 mixed. Restyling 2 Diesel is close: mixed 4.6–4.7, CO2 120–122, Euro 6. 1.6 DCT 136 hp is 0.5 s slower to 100 than 1.6 MT 136 hp Diesel (11.0 vs 10.5) and 1 km/h slower (194 vs 195).
