हुंडई एलीट i20 [2016-2017] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Exterior

 16 inch wheels look good on the car, matte black C-pillar and the front grill gives it it's European hatchback look, tail lamps suits the overall design of the car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Interiors are definitely best in class, dashboard feels premium. Feedback of buttons is good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 1.2 petrol is good for city driving, short gear ratios help in slow moving traffic. On highway, easily  reaches 120kmph in 5th gear at 3000-3200 RPM (Redline is at 6500). Fuel economy is decent (10-12 in city with AC, 15+ on highway with AC)

Ride Quality & Handling

 Steering is light as compared to other cars in this segment, good for city, some people will not like it for  lack of feedback. Suspension is right on point, large wheels contribute to better ride quality.

Final Words

 Would definitely recommend it to others. My rating: 8/10

Areas of improvement  

 - Hyundai should have atleast one variant with 6 airbags.

 - Definitely needs fuel economy indicator/distance to empty meter.

 - Auto-locking doors are definitely required.

Gear ratios are good for city driving, premium interiors, reverse cam, powerful AC, 16 inch alloys.no auto-locking doors,no mileage/distance to empty indicator width is too much for congested streets

Hello,

Since everyone else has written about all the good stuff. I am here to highlight an issue that is literally painful to bear. I am getting a mileage of about 9.5 from my car.

Bought Elite-i20 Sportz petrol from Himgiri Hyundai Wazirpur. Trust me, buy this car only if you are fine with a strong car body and good looks, and only if Mileage is none of your conecrns. I have gotten the car serviced from service center but they are not able to fix this, so I assume that they are showing fake mileage numbers.

I have registered both Product complaint and servicing complaint from Hyundai india website for now (Though I didn't get any complaint number or anything for the same which is strange). Will update about how the complaint has been handled and whether the issue is resolved or now.

As for driving, my car is used for only office driving, and I sdriven by a professional driver (hired) who drives the car with elegance, so I cannot even doubt that the mileage is less because it is not being driven properly.

Good featuresPetrol gives a mileage of less than 10 km/L

Only Pros. I purchased Asta o on july 2017. Till now no complaints and it is maintainance free. Lights are awesome. Gives a mileage of 20 kms. Huge boot space comfort driving. Long drives are memorable. Thanks Hyundai

I bought Hyundai Elite i20 elite 2 years back 2016 january model. I like this car very much now totaly disappointed because of the issues faced in this CAR. Fronts seats are totally uncomfortable specially driver seat. As a result it leads to back pain at my back near tail bone.. May be its a manufacture defects. I offently registered my complaint regarding this at hundai authorized service center . But there is no proper responce . Problem is still there. Its my request to you please pay serious attention towards my genuine problem . I already alert you regarding this. If I will not get any solution from hundai as soon as possible. Then i will contact to higher authorities. Ravindra Dixit (DIRECTOR) SKRL. GWALIOR 9425110497, 9302210497.

Exterior

 The exterior styling of this machine is what lures one to it. A more matured, European design is what makes this car a class apart from its previous version. Even after two years of its induction, this design still makes heads turn in awe. The hexagonal grille, ORVM mounted led indicator lamps, a sporty C pillar and the sweeping headlamps are the highlights of this design. They could have included a DTRL like the European version of i20.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Hyundai has always been ahead of its competitors when it comes to features and interiors. The reverse parking camera and sensors, automatic headlamps, automatic mirrors are all no nonsense utilities. The automatic climate control AC is pretty powerful with rear cooling vents. My car was also equipped with leather wrapped steering wheel and gear knob and a boot light, all of which were removed from this version by Hyundai later.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 The engine is an area where you would feel they could have improved, even after driving 10000 kilometres. The 1.2L engine is good, but they could have gone for a more powerful engine. Fuel economy is also just average for a hatchback at 13-14 kmpl. The gearbox is outstanding though, which helps you beat the city traffic with ease. Overall, you will be very satisfied with this car in the city, but when you take it to the highways, you might want more power if you are a driving enthusiast.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality is just amazing and that have been true for most of the Hyundai cars in any segment. Handling is also pretty smooth. The suspensions are quite adequate even for the bumpy village roads. It is quite an easy to drive machine.

Final Words

 I bought this car after almost six months of research in December 2014. To put it in a nutshell, I have never regretted owning this cute car with excellent styling, features and ride quality. It would have been better if the engine felt bit more powerful while highway driving.

Areas of improvement  

 Hyundai could have provided us with a 1.4L engine for this car. The infotainment system was a bit crude when I bought it, but the worked on that and later added it. They could have also provided a Distance to Empty info in the display.

 

Features, Styling, Gearbox, Hassle-free ownershipPunch-less Engine

Exterior - U know better

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) - Amazing . Best in class. U will love once u come inside ur car . Every part is of superiror quality . If u compare with Baleno or any other car in this segment  , this car is far better in cabin quality . Verdict : U will be satisfied .

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox - Here comes the tricky part .

1st - Performance :

Cons :This car suffers from low end torque delivery . Simple words it doesn't pulls up quickly . If u r driving in hair pin bends on hills then u have to be in the 1st gear always , hardly any time 2nd  , forget about third . In city traffic 2nd and 3rd mostly . This car is heavier and it feels when it is asked to pull up . It is annoying but u will be used to it .

Pros : This car on a highway when u go above 70 is a delight . Power comes in loads and you will be crusing ahead of all  . I reached max at 140 , but didnt went ahead . but believe it can touch 160 being very stable . 

 

Ride Quality & Handling : ride quality is very good at higher speeds and Handling is very good once ur used to it . It has a very light weigth steering which I believe is very easy to use and u will be precise at higher speeds once ur used to it . Overall very good .

This car is very very comfortable in its class . Compare it with Baleno and swift dzire . This is way ahead in comfort .

Mileage : This is very important . I'm a middle class person working in Software services (not a IT product base company) , So I do worry about money .😵 .  

City : It gives 11 Kmpl to  12mpl  in city depending on ur driving habbit  . I get 11.5 generally . Sometimes 12 as well and sometimes 11 .

Highway : It gave exactly 16 Kmpl . No less than that . I drove over all 600 Kms in that trip , and I drove at higher speed as well above 110 . AC was on for 4/5 th of the trip . 

 

Final Words : Comfortable , good to drive at higher speed , Ride quality , Handling . Great looks . Mileage , city 11.5 highway 16 . Better buy then Baleno , if  ur not ok with mileage nos. 

 

Areas of improvement : Low end torque . Pulling up capacity . 

 

 Do let me know guys If this feedback helped . I was looking for a good review for 3 months before I bought this car . So felt the need to write a big review so that people are informed before hand . CHEERS .

Comfort and power once crosses 70KmphPick up is very low . This car is very low in pulling when u are in low speeds.

Exterior No Comparision with any other car in same segment. i20 is far away from these.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Premium interior.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is excellent. I am from Delhi, before first service I was getting the milage of 9km/l in city and 13 km/l on highway. After service mileage is improved now it's near 12 km/l in city and 16 km/l on highway.

Yes I face the issue in gearbox, Sometimes back gear stuck in middle. So need to hold the knob and release the clutch a bit and try again.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent, Handling is smooth like new born baby.

Final Words Strongly recommended, If you are looking a fuel efficient car then i20 is not for you.

Before i20 I have driven Maruti Swift Vxi ABS. And I am very happy to have i20. Driving experience of i20 is much better then maruti although Maruti was very fuel efficient but the driving comfort and control of i20 is very much better then Maruti Swift.

Good Handling, Excellent PerformaceBack Gear Swifting

It was a time when i want to buy a new car. Many options were there for me. But i want to select a nice car with more attracting features. I wanted a premium hatchback and i was confused in baleno and elite i20. I chose this car because it was more sporty than it, more features than baleno. But i was not sure about better mileage than baleno then i got to know about it that it's weight was more than baleno that attracted me and said to forget the mileage.so i booked it. It is easy to drive and has smooth steering. After 80000 kms it has same performance. It is very sporty with a beautiful design.it has very smooth engine of diesel 1397 cc. That has not ever created problem till now. It has large space and comfort with rear ac vents. The hyundai has a great service after 10000km/1 year. The service is very nice. It cost nearly about average 5000 rs depending on any extra work. It has very nice music system than other competitors with 4 speakers and 4 twitters. The alloys are also very wonderful. But the ground clearance of front bumper is less. But it is a very nice car for a family.

Exterior

 Exterior look is alwsys depending personal choice , but I feel like its pretty Good , strong and no structural integrety problems.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Features are rellay , overall very Good compare to other cars in the same segmant.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 This is the main area where i20 beats all other cars. When you prees aceelator hardly you will be pulled like you are in a fight and getting ready to take off :) Fuel also burn like anything .. dont expect above 12 kmpl when you press hardly. Smoooth gear shifting. you get comfirtable like 60-70 km even when you drive at 130k speed on highways..  

Ride Quality & Handling

Suspension is just Okay .. not so brilliant but not bad.  

Final Words

 Go for it .. if you are trilled when speed goes beyond 120 ... And no issues for spending 100 bugs extra for extra comfirtability.
