Good car. Review on Hyundai i20

Exterior

The first thing is that i20 maintains the new sporty fuidic theme. Except for the bump in the rear boot door(which is meant for camera), the exterior is with minimum fuss. The most important change from i20 elite(2015) is the LED head lamp with additional side lamp that guides you while turning(pretty costly though), which is a thoughtful move by hyundai. The antenna is lower in height unlike the longer antenna 2015 version used to have

Interior(Features, Space & Comfort)

Seats are changed with respect to 2015 version and is really good. Boot space for rear passengers can be messy in certain situations. AC is powerful. AVN which comes with ASTA(O) is really nice. No CD player in the AVN and hyundai has removed the 2nd 12V power outlet in ASTA(O)

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Gear Box is really good with smooth trnasmission. Acceleration at lower speeds is below mark. To experience the engine performance one has to cross 50KMPH when the second booster kicks in. At speeds in the range of 120 -140 KMPH, driving this vehicle is really enjoyable. shock absorbers are good. Mileage 18-20 KMPL in highways and 15-18 KMPL within the city. The real beauty is no need for acceleration when brake and clutch are released . Very handy in city traffic

Final Words

Even though bit costly, this car boasts some of the features that are missing among the peers.

Areas of improvement Rain sensing wipers(I could not understand why hyundai removed this!)

2nd 12 V power outlet

CD player

pickup at slower speeds(Hyundai should look in to this, with 1.4 ltr engine, the pick up at slow speed is worst).
