i20-The ultimate in luxury and comfort

 

Exterior I got a white colured baby and believe me people stare at it, the looks are the best in this segment of all cars like swift,polo,punto etc. It look so beautiful from the rear as well as the front(also from the sides),hats off to the hyundai car designing team.I am in love with my white baby.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The car is very spacious from inside and is very comfortable. I had an Alto before this and as compared to that this baby feels like a big hall.The music system with the USB and IPOD connections is just awesome, the small chiller is a cool feature and the digitl display is nice.The seats at the back are also good,there is ample boot space(a child can comfortable sllep in it!!!).But the AC is not that effective as that of Swift.You can place 2-3 bottles between the 2 front seats.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I did a test drive of swift,swift dezire,punto,polo and i found i20 to be the best as far looks,road grip was concerned.The gear box is covered leather and is stylish,also switching gears from one to other is pure luxury and very smooth.The engine is so silent that when i switch in the ignition,sometimes i have to press the accelerator to make sure whether it has started or not, the engine noise is absolutely minimal.I drove it from Bhiwani to Lucknow on the first day of its delivery from Bhiwani and it was a total distance of about 700km,and it gave me an amzing mileage of 18.I have driven it for about 950Km and it gives me an average of 13 in Lucknow.Whoever says that the pickup of i20 is not good is wrong.It has a fine pickup and its so smooth it feels like a hot knife going through butter.The pickup is not good when the AC is on but its ok.I would like to add here that in terms of pickup,swift is better.

 

Ride Quality & Handling The shockers are not that good as i thought but the electronic steering is amazing,it makes for an excellent city drive and makes for an easy handling of the car,you can drive it with a few fingers,i make by baby go zig zag easily.The clutch and accelarator footrest add on to the comfort.

 

Final Words If you are going for style,luxury and comfort then no other car gives it to u all in one package other than i20,it gives the luxury of a big sedan.Also it looks sophisitacted and pretty,the only reason i did not go for swift was beacuse of its odd looks(looks like a fat toad).

 

Areas of improvement The pickup decreases sharply when the AC is turned on and the AC in itself is not that powerful(as compared to swift).But overall this baby is babilicious,pretty and luxurious.If you are looking for fuel efficiency then maybe you will not go for it.If your budget i till 5.5l and you want luxury and style.go for this baby...i promise you it wont let you down.
