the hyundai i30 (elantra touring) should arrive in the states under the elantra family and is expected to launch spring 2008. It should be priced under 15k, offering 138 hp and 136lb-ft of torque with a 2.0L inline-4. They seem to have added a "unique sport suspension and steering tuned for greater response and handling" as well as "the company's first USB port, along with a standard auxiliary jack and standard XM Satellite Radio."

the elantra touring is said to have class-leading interior volume.
