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 !

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!

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.

As a 50 year old I agree with your trail of thought, with the price of my old favourites and cars I had in my teens/early 20’s being expensive now i have a Clio sport 200 which is superb and feels fast even when not going stupid speeds, I have an early Boxster which is feels more grown up but again not license loosing quick. 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.

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! 🙌

The only thing I’d say is that, down a B road this thing IS fast. It doesn’t just feel it. Tune it a little and the bigger hot hatches that cost twice as much are going to be made to look silly.

I'm sure a V8 would be giving ME around 12-14 mpg, in comparison, so happy days....... for as long as they last..... And yes, I'm definitely not in a queue for a bl.. jo. anytime soon from Greta👌
Pete Great review the car is great for the money and petrol heads still need the small hot hatchback even though we are heading in to the new generation of electric vehicles but no combustion sound is a big loss to a petrol head admit it !
Great review and what a superb car. You can’t beat a well sorted hot hatch. But is it better than a MINI JCW

It’s pretty close 👍
Uh oh…!!! I blooming like that!! Maybe not an I30N Fastback replacement, but maybe a Abarth replacement..?? It certainly would put a smile on the McVitie’s faces either way. For info for the blue light affiliated or MOD employee Pedlers, Hyundia do very nice discounts on production of your work ID… I certainly got a good discount on my car back in 2020 👍
