Hyundai i20N REVIEW - The best hot hatch of all ? *Incl EPIC LAUNCH CONTROL*

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Hyundai i20N is very nearly the best hot hatch of all, and it's good because it's not that powerful and not that fast !! With just over 200 horsepower, front wheel drive, a manual gearbox and limited slip differential it is just so much fun to throw down a B road !

    Had ours a year now. Sadly the under tray failed and dragged on the floor. They wouldn’t replace it as it was cosmetic. Really not happy about that. Otherwise, alongside the X5 7 seat it has been brilliant. School run for the kids. And weekend car for me.

    Having had this car since November I agree with all said. Fuel economy on a long run for me is 52mpg. Awesome for a car of this type. One thing I got rid of was the tyres, horrendous wear rate, nearly bald at 6k miles, and since changing, the suspension and comfort have also improved . My overall avg is 41.2 mpg so far having done 6k miles mixed driving and speeds . All in all an awesome car !

    Thanks so much for this! I have to add to a previous comment and say that this is also for me the best review of the i20N, that I've seen on KZread (and I've also seen them all). Just the sort of content I was looking for - comprehensive, grounded and balanced and, thankfully not all revving and pops and bangs, that so many reviewers seem to think that's what this car is all about! I get my i20N this weekend and getting quite excited about it. From test drives I've had, it certainly seems a fun, 'spirited' drive and I think you hit the nail on the head, when you said about it not being that powerful and that fast, but feels it. Good also about fuel consumption with mixed driving styles - quite important I think when justifying this car for daily use. Thanks again - keep them coming!

    Hello from Australia. This is about the 5th time I’ve watched this video now. I was lucky enough to get an order in for an i20n about 14 months ago! Today I got a call from dealer to say the car had arrived and it was sitting in a boat in quarantine in Melbourne. Apparently a bunch of quarantine issues with thousands of cars in quarantine. It could still be a while. I really hope the wait will be worth it. Thanks for the video mate.

    One of the best reviews I’ve seen for this car and I’ve watched most of them. I’ve had my i20N since May, same spec as the press car you had. Paid considerably less than £25k due to good deals that were about middle of last year. Puts a bigger smile on my face than my M240i did and that was an absolute weapon, you’d run out of road before it run out power. Astonishing value for money

These cars came on my radar a few months ago and will definitely be interested in a few years time when slightly dropped in price, 200bhp ish with a manual gearbox, that ticks the right boxes for me.

    I’ve had two ! 21 and 22 builds. The earlier versions suffer terribly from rev hang but this is removed with dealer software updates hand in hand with servicing. The cars sweet spot is over 25k mileage wise. After this sort of mileage they become a lot more free raving and the gear changes become far smoother the auto rev match can attempt to trigger on up shifts if you aren’t perfect during selecting the next gear during the break in period. Fuel return for me over 20000 miles averaged at 40mpg this is a mixture of hard B road driving and motorway commuting. You can realistically expect high 40s at motorway speeds. The claims of over 50mpg are possible at 55mph maximum. Common issues I’ve encountered are rattling mirror and camera surrounds these are easily fixed and condensation within the rear lights these were replaced under warranty in my case. Be sure to wash the car often in salt season as the wheel lacquer is terrible. The standard front pads are useless when driven hard a set of EBC yellow stuff pads will transform the car as the standards do not work from cold and suffer with heat soak when pushed. Yes it’s against warranty terms put fitting a GPF delete will greatly improve the emotion of the car sound wise which is not noticeable with the exhaust flap closed it also improves mid range pick up I have not had warranty issues for the record. Finally unlike most turbo charged vehicles this car makes the majority of its power top end of the RPM range helped with the over boost function so do not be afraid to rev this car hard ! You will rarely see 5th gear on a hard B road. Many thanks

    @@PetrolPed the R was a fantastic car but with all the recalls, software updates that didn’t fix anything or made gremlins worse and dangerous fault where the car thought the speed limits were in kph instead of mph often automatically braking to do 70kph on a motorway or 40kph in a 40mph. It became a chore to drive wondering what wasn’t going to work every time I got in. From a driving perspective they are both similar in day to day useable power, as you said you can’t use the power of cars like the golf unless you’re either stupid or on a track. Great review by the way too! 👍

    That's an outstanding recommendation for the 120N. Don't regret buying mine either - had it now for 3 weeks and just absolutely love it! For me, Hyundai's N team didn't just produce a fantastic machine to drive, they created a unique experience too!

    5 GT Turbo had awful Turbo Lag. After a test drive, I decided not to buy one because of the 'uncertain' power delivery and overtaking safety. I bought a Suzuki Swift GTi instead - best gearchange ever. Trading my 2007 Suzuki Swift Sport for a brand spanking new i20n tomorrow. No turbo lag issues with the Hyundai. Fantatstic package overall. Great gearchange, brakes and ultra-responsive steering. Bring it on!

    Evening all... Great review and some car! It does look good and stands out and is away from the usual 'racer hatchbacks' eg Fiesta ST's! Your description of, 'its not that powerful or fast' but you feel you're going fast is just like and old Mini... You feel like you're doing 100mph at 30+ but you keep your licence for the same adrenaline rush! 👌🤓 I would also agree that cars around this price point, especially 'higher, sports' models have to reduce costs somewhere, hence the 'cheaper' plastics. All in all, an awesome car, especially 40+mpg, perfect daily for some weekend B-Road fun! 🙌

    My heart was set in the 2022 fiesta ST but seeing this car has made me want to get this car. With the fiesta ST, you don’t get a lot of warranty on it but this car you get 5 years. Also fiestas are known for the engine to fail, iv heard so many Ford fiestas fail lately so it’s put me off. A great video and I can’t wait to get this car.

    5-Year Hayundai Warranty that also covers you for Track usage as standard! Try getting that on a Ford... I've been watching i20N reviews for a couple of years but hadn't been able to find one at a Dealership locally for a test drive. That all changed 3 weeks ago. I've owned my i20N for 12 days now. 500 gentle(ish!) run in miles later and I'm totally smitten. A fantastic piece of kit. Hope you got/get yours. Model has now been discontinued.... 😢

    Always worth shopping round the dealerships for a cancelled order - I wanted one in Phantom Black and was really lucky getting one in this colour locally, with the bonus of having the Bose sound system too. In my case, the car arrived 6 weeks after putting down the deposit. Originally dealers were quoting 9 months as a newly placed order. Even if you do wait though - it's so worth it - car is absolutely epic!
