ஹூண்டாய் i20 [2012-2014] யூசர் ரிவ்யுஸ்

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Pick up leaves much to be desired. My 13 yr old Santro has better pick up. 

Ride Quality & Handling Good but shakes sideways on highway uneven road compared to Swift Dzire which is another car I use and which is much much smoother at high speeds 150-160 km/hr.

Areas of improvement  

(1) AC system is the most useless part. Louvers design is obsolete. Even at extreme in positions you fail to get the air flow at drivers seat and which goes only touching your shoulders at the most. You do not get sufficient air pressure and neither the cooling. I have shown it to the service centre and they say it is working fine as per design (which obviously is poor). I have not recommended this car to any of my friends so far. Again I have to say but my 13 yr old Santro has better AC. 

(2) Music sytem comes without a remote and USB socket both of which are a must nowadays.

Exterior I love exterior of new i20.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Lovely interiors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good engine performance, very poor fuel economy in petrol, smooth gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling Very good except performance of suspensions.

Final Words Good deal if you are buying new one as suspension will work good and ready to bear the more expences on fuel.

Areas of improvement Hyundai should improve their Customer care service and redress of grievances, attitude of dealership people should be cross checked from the customer, if thinking to compete with Maruti in service. Dealership should be fine for the mistake as happened in my case. Dealership had damaged my vehicle in first service and refused to accept their mistake. I lodged complaint with HMIL. I was alloted complaint number but did not get single call from HMIL regarding repairs of my vehicle which was not expected from a good name like Hyundai.

Exterior Classy look. My model doesnt have led lamps..though it looks good. Definitely shows the class and it is worth a head turner.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) My pressure gets reduced whenever i step in to my car. The comfort it gives in this segment is mind blowing.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Not great as of diesel in initial but holds good in a longer run. Fuel Economy was pathetic till 2nd service but has drastically improved a bit. Though it is not a car for fuel conservative guys especially petrol.. But it gives comparatively decent mileage in highways.

Ride Quality & Handling Driven 700 kilometers at a stretch in max of 1/2 hr break. Enjoyed every bit of it no discomfort at any point even in long drive.... handling was good in hills with fully packed.

Final Words I love the car. Worth for money & benchmark for this segment.

Areas of improvement Mileage & initial pick up to tick 100.
