Good on Hyundai for sticking with a manual box and making it fun to drive, too many of the new so called hot hatches are soulless to drive

@Nonegiven14582

11 ай бұрын

Depends on what market you are going for. I am around 50 and love a manual box. I would buy this car. I did buy a Colt Ralliart brand new. Which I had mapped to 190 BHP years ago. But the market for this car is rich 20-25 year olds? I have seen younger lads love the automatic Renaultsport Clio

Wow. Remember Hyundai and Kia 10 years ago? Mostly recognized for cheap, bad looking, extremely boring cars for those without much to spend on cars. They still are kind of affordable, but other than greatly improving their designs and quality, what are these exciting cars lately? Stinger GT? i30N, and now this? Boy did they step their game up. Sure, it's not as exciting of a hot hatch as some others, it's more like a Polo GTi from what I see and read: perfectly usable on the daily, great tool on the track or twisties, but maybe missing emotion. And that mainly comes down to the engine in this case. Imagine them creating a lighter, snappier engine in the next gen, and there we are - the Koreans are very close to being absolutely astonishing. And for now, they're just very, very good. We just bought my mother this generation of the i20 - of course, not the 'N' model, just as a little city car for her to get around the city with. And does it do great? It does. She sat in it after driving a 2nd gen Kia Cee'd and the uplift in quality is really noticable even compared to that. Cost very little money and there's lane keeping assist, heated seats and steering wheel, infotainment system, LED lights, cruise control - and overall good feeling of quality when you sit in it. They advance so quickly.

I kinda liked that Box

Interesting to compare the review with the one on Auto Motor Sports a German channel. This channel is famous for being biased and praising VW. In their review the were totally positiv about the interior quality, the engine and the setup of the I 20 N. When I watch this review it sounds quite artifically critical. I have the feeling the Top Gear Moderator is payed by Ford.

Wow!What a car!Powerful,low weight,one step ahead compared to direct rival as St Fiesta!Congrats to Hyundai😎!!Great job!

Well the ST has 200bhp and 320nm soo I think ithe ST is slightly faster? As this is 204bhp and 275nm? But I don't know on paper

@@Chappers.Gaming Then again the I20n weighs 100kg less. Carwow did a drag race and the I20n beat the fiesta but the fiesta was gaining towards the end

Interesting but nothing that makes me want to swap my ST. I do like the styling of it but it would look so much better as a 3 door, and without a 3 door option it wouldn’t make it on to my short list if I was about to change my car (yes that’s probably petty but we all have our preferences)

Is it worth it to buy the sport or the sport plus package with the lsd?

It's not the engine internals that make it feel like the revs aren't dropping quick enough, it's an emissions trick to hang the revs in decel to prevent production of NOx gasses. I know what you mean, when rotational mass is high it feels like there is mechanical drag preventing the engine from revving freely but in modern cars it's often am emissions deal. Some do it more than others, my mk7.5 Fiesta ST does it noticeably, there are some ECU tuners who can take some of that out but often a lot of it is baked in and can't be removed. So unless you do a standalone ECU no way around it often.

Someone needs to explain why there was a $5,000 price hike between the 2020 and 2021 model year. It doesn't seem like there is hardly any difference between the two except for the 2021 gets a +25HP bump over the 2020. Even of you got the Performance Pack for the 2020, it was only a $2,100 option. You could tick almost every option box on a Fiesta ST and be around $25,000 out the door with no haggling.

it may drives good ... but it has the appeal of a Skoda Fabia PS: N stands for Namyang where it was developed.

I think, if you want a hot hatch, you have to buy the Fiesta ST 💪

We desperately need this in the U.S

I feel like this would of been a great car with a more revvy 1.8-2L NA engine something like a k20 type thing of a 2zzge kind of engine would probably suit this quite well

I loved my corolla T sport! 8200 rpm in a corolla. Most corollas used over here by more elderly people or for delivering fast food from takeaway shops

2:48 the N doesn´t stands for Nürburgring alone. In first place its because of Namyang

I think it needs negative 1 camber angle on rear wheels and it will be perfect

Why don't we have that in the US?

You might get one aftermarket

I really like it!!! Now I want one!

I’m in need of a i30n facelift review

Sounds good to me, heard few crackles here and there, it was nice

You made me feel not wanna test drive it... Even though I wanted to... The worst thing was that they didn't let you test it against the other cars! This is suspicious.... Thank you for the review!!!

Their rivals are costlier than theirs...might damage their image

I just bought must and the last owner put p609 rapid tyres on it 💀 Its definitely better than my last car but not by much they understeer kills with those tyres, and when it's not ondersteering, the back is trying to swing out. Still great fun to drive, I'll probably pick up some oem tyres when I have more mone though.

I like the review, this guy and high peak matt should get their own top gear.
