ALL-NEW HYUNDAI I20 FULL REVIEW 2021 1,0 T-GDI 120 HP DCT MHEV

EV Channels Review

The Hyundai i20 receives a comprehensive review, highlighting its fresh and sporty exterior design that makes it appear larger than its segment suggests. Inside, the cabin impresses with good build quality, a straightforward user interface, and an optional dual 10.25-inch digital display setup. The reviewer praises the spaciousness for a small car and the comfortable seating, even for taller adults. Driving dynamics are a strong point, with the 120 hp 1.0 T-GDI engine offering sufficient acceleration, especially when paired with the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and mild-hybrid system. The reviewer strongly advises against the naturally aspirated engine for motorway use, recommending the turbo variant. The i20 is noted for its calm and stable ride, even at higher speeds, and respectable fuel economy. While acknowledging the presence of hard plastics typical for the segment, the overall impression is that the i20, particularly in higher trims, surpasses segment benchmarks like the VW Polo in terms of look and feel. The reviewer concludes that it's one of the best cars in its class, though advises careful consideration of optional extras to manage cost.
