Hyundai i45 Review, For Sale, Interior, Specs & Models in Australia

FROM
$6,160

The Hyundai i45 is a five-seater, large sedan sold in Australia from 2010 until it was replaced by the Sonata in 2013.

At 4.8m long the i45 is a large sedan and Hyundai’s rival to the Kia Optima, Toyota Camry, Ford Falcon and Holden Commodore. Lower grades had a 2.0-litre four cylinder engine while the higher grades had a 2.4-litre.

Quiet and comfortable to drive and elegant to look at, the i45 was our first glimpse of Hyundai’s push upmarket with higher quality cars, stylish designs and improving dynamics.

The line-up currently starts at $6,160 for the I45 Active and ranges through to $14,300 for the range-topping I45 Premium.

Hyundai I45 FAQs

Ignition light dead in i45

Check for possible damage that might have been done by those who 'borrowed' your car. It's possible that the battery is completely dead, but I think that's unlikely. Take it to a Hyundai dealer and have them try to find the cause of the problem.

Opinion on i45?

New cars often arrive here without having been tuned to our roads and driving styles, and the i45 was one of those when it first went on sale. As a result it copped some flak from motor-noters for its ride and handing, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a decent car. I wouldn't take the comments at face value, I would suggest that you drive the car yourself and make up your own mind.

i45 engine failure

Missing the services really clouds the issue, as you don't know if the problem might have been picked up before it became a major issue. There's not a lot you can do, you need to find an engine and get your car going. You would be unlucky for it to happen again. You could also try to convince Hyundai to come to the party with part payment for the repairs, which might help alleviate the financial burden for you.

Hyundai I45 Interior

The i45 was part of a generation of Hyundai models that marked the brand's position as a genuine threat to more established brands. Its dashboard and interior design was right on the money for the time. The top-spec Elite scored leather trim, and as you'll see in the images, it still looks good today.

Shown above are interior details for the Hyundai I45 2010.
