You're misreading. The article says:

"Both i30Ns will be as quick as their closest rivals, meaning a 0-100km/h time in less than 6.5 seconds."

That does not mean they will do 0-100 km/h in 6.5 seconds, it means that all the cars the i30 N competes with do 0-100 km/h in 6.5 seconds or less, and the i30 N will be within this range. No specific number for the i30 N is mentioned.

Also, there's no mention of 290 hp. It says base engine with 184 kw and "performance" with 202 kw. Those are 247 and 271 hp, respectively.

A little early to start with the bench racing.
