हुंडई i20 [2010-2012] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Exterior

 Looks of the car are amazing. The day time running LED's look really good. Fluidic design lines flowing through the doors also catch attention and make it a good touch to the exterior detailing.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Packed with amazing features (bluetooth connectivity and music streaming, steering controls for audio and bluetooth, rain sensing wipers, Cooling glove box) the blue colour illuminition on the panels and audio system controls bring a good feel inside the car. The rear parking camera and sensors make it really comfortable to park the car or reversing on busy streets. Great amount of space for a hatchback, 4 Adults can easily travel a long distance and fit two suitcases and a small bag in the boot too.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine is the part where it needs to improve, 1.2L engine is not good enough for the weight of the car and energetic pick up's may result in burning some rubber off the tyres. It takes at least 13-14 secods from 0-100 and maybe more with a full load of passangers. The fuel economy of the car is not good as the other competitors. before the first service I hardly got 7 Km/L. after two services also there isn't much improvement as it still gives only like 8-8.5 Km/L. A car with a 1.2 engine should do at least 9-10Km/l in the city. Haven't gone on a proper trip yet to check its efficiency on the highway.

Ride Quality & Handling

The electric power steering makes the i20 an ease to drive in the city. In traffic and while parking, steering the car is a pleasure. Hardly any effort required to parallel park or sway through the traffic. The i20 does very well till 100km/h but after crossing the 100kph mark its advisable to control the steering as the light steering affects the handling of the car.

Final Words

 It is a great car to buy for people looking to drive to work everyday inseide a city. But if you're a spirited driver who loves driving and going for long drives dont get too attracted to the features as the engine is a major decision for you.
