Hyundai announced the launch of a new range-topping trim level for the i40 in the British market. Available for both Tourer and Saloon models, the Premium SE trim offers a comprehensive standard specification upgrade, combining every single optional extra in one fully-loaded package.

The Premium SE comes with all the features of Comfort, Vision and Assist packs as standard, which means you get  heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats (outer only), xenon headlights with adaptive front lighting system, lane departure warning system and tyre pressure monitoring.

Add to that a power tailgate for the Tourer model, and you end up with one well-equipped Hyundai. The i40 Premium SE can only be had with the 1.7-liter CRDi 136PS engine, but you have the choice of manual or automatic gearbox.

Prices start at £27,465 OTR for the manual Blue Drive and standard models with the automatic version costing £28,670. For the Saloon, manual Blue Drive and standard models start at £26,065 rising to £27,270 for the automatic.
