This car is quicker than the numbers suggest. Traded in my 2019 i30 Fastback N for a 2021 i20 N-Line 48V 101PS DCT. I did it because of herniated discs and worn facet joints, way less painful drive and still a bit of fun. Now i can drive a slow car fast instead of a fast car slow because people hogging the passing lane.

We like a good N, however this engine whether it be this or the Bayon is far more rapid than you’d give them credit for, and yes that appeals to us too - you can use virtually all of the power all of the time, win win and the comfort difference and smart looks just add to it, thank you Enforcer

Annabelle answer to your question; yeah definitely i could! As I've said in previous reviews Hyundai/ Kia have 'come on' leaps & bounds in a very short time 😀.gone are the days of bland looking interior & not the greatest of style. the interior on the i20 might have some hard plastics but that is the normal for cars in this category. I like the colour combination of the interior & it has a good spec too. The 2 tone exterior in dragon red with black roof just suits it 👌 all in all if you had said to me a few years ago if I would buy a Hyundai I would have said "Err...." now they have upped the anti I would definitely consider...so what do you think Annabelle..could you see yourself in one 🤔?? Excellent review as always planet auto 🚘 👌 👏

The early ones do have their charm like the Subaru Justy or Skoda Estelle and one of our favourites the FSO Polinez Sprint.

13.5 HP ISG means its probably the most powerful mild hybrid ISG around. Then why I wonder does it still emply a turbo⁉️🤔Also puzzling is why not a CVT ⁉️ I mean with an ISG that powerful and a start-stop system, the entire stalling speeds can be left to it allowing Direct Drive of the ICE to CVT. Direct drive CVT is F1 stuff which can patchup for thr loss of a turbo charger. We dont have this powerplant for our i20s here in India but there is a brilliant MPV called Exter which Hyundai has launched based on the i20. A 3 cylinder, 1 liter mild hybrid CVT powerplant in the Exter would be great. Ofcourse it will need 3 row seating.😉
