Review on Hyundai i20

Today, I read Review about Hyundai i20 on Mouthshut.com – The Consumer Review Website.


Dear All,


Purposely I delayed this review, because I wanted to learn more about the car and give more inputs from my side. 


I was researching for a new car since last 1 year. I owned Tata 
Indigo GLX model. I wanted to buy a new car with budget of around 6Lacs. I researched a lot on internet for vehicles. Finally I decided to go for i20. The major criteria for selecting the car was its looks, performance and HYUNDAI tag.


I received the beauty on 17th Oct. 2010. I liked the car so much that in first day only I completed 200 kms. 


Today, at the time of writing review, I have clocked 21500 kms in 10 months, with 3 servicing completed.


Interiors are very nice, especially dual tone dashboard. It brings reach feel. 2-din mp3 player with 4 speakers and 2 tweeters are also good, and gives reach sound. Nice setup of audio system. Steering mounted audio controls are as well good, to keep your eyes on road every time. Inside space is also good, at least more than swift. AC is good, not great because in hot summers, it does not cool you immediately. At least 3-5 minutes needed for pleasant cooling. One new feature is added to the model is manual shift indicator, which helps driver to decide when a gear should be changed (down or up shift). 


Exteriors are as well good. Don’t have to tell about those. The car looks cute. Additional feature is electrical opening and closing of ORVM & electrical adjustment. ORVMs have side indicators. 


Performance : The real game comes here. (Let me tell you, I have petrol version.) I was new to the electronic power steering (EPS) concept. So, took some odd 5 kms to learn about the new system. In city driving, the EPS works pretty fine. on highways also you wont feel like tired. The good system. Breaks are good, only front disk breaks; hyundai would have added disks to rear as well. Pick up is good. Havent felt lag anywhere except 2nd gear. I dont know, but 2nd gear has less pick up compared to others. Overtaking is easy else. Got to know that 0-100kmph is 12.9 secs noy 13.2 secs. 
One thing with EPS is, whenever u’ll put ur vehicle in pot-hole, steering gets automatically turned if you are not holding it some tight. Suspensions are really good. You will feel pot-holes unless u’ll put your vehicle in big one. Overall ride quality is good. After lot many trips, I didnt feel tired.


RATING: 5/5
