Hyundai i20 [2012-2014] User Reviews

The Hyundai i20 Sportz 1.4 CRDI of a great budget family car that is comfortable to ride in for long trips and the performance will not upset you. Overall I think i20 is an amazing car.

Bought my i20 in september 2012.Worth buying.It has great build quality and best in class features till date.Done 2lakh kilometers and it is still the best.Even after a major accident. Build quality is best because it saved my father's life even after a collision at around speed of 120km/hr.Best car. Prefect value for money.

Areas of improvement After sales. I bought it in Aug 2012 and I am really happy to own it. It drives fantastic and pick up is mind blowing. I had driven it even past 170km/hr. Only problem I faced is with dealer, I had not received registeration number till now, I deposited tax on Nov 1,2012. car met with a minor accident and the denting job was not satisfying with number of faults. Even there is dispute regarding the insurance and dealer is threating me regarding judicial action. I personally feel that after sales is the worst I have ever experienced. They are not at all intrested in your problems regarding the car after you bought it. They make false commitments. These views are regarding Godawri Ludhiana. Car is best and dealer is worst.

Looks, features and pick upAfter sales service

The buying process was smooth. Applied for a loan through Bank Of Maharashtra. The loan was passed in 5 hrs flat !!!

Took the delivery on March 30, 2013. Have done about 600 km till date. are Here are some thoughts.

Positives: The looks. It definitely is a head turner. Everthing about the car has a premium feel to it. The rear parking camera is one of the most important features. Works like a charm.The car is so silent, doesnt feel as if I am driving a diesel car. 6 gears are a boon. The car, being in run in period, I havent gone over 80 kmph yet. But the car cruises at 1.5k RPM easily at 80 KMPH in 5th gear and you hardly hear a sound in the car. The pick up is really great. And to compliment it the breaks are good too.  The DRLs enhance the looks of the car. On the negative I see people asking me to turn off the light during daylight. The gear shift indicator does help a lot especially for new drivers.

Currently I am getting an overall avg of above 17 kmpl, 70% highway travel, 30% bumper to bumper traffic with AC on 100% of the time.

Negatives: The infamous turbo lag. But I don’t find it too worrisome. With the AC on there are time when the car picks up in the second gear at 18 kmph at 1.5k rpm, though it take 3-4 seconds to react. The car really gets bumpy when u get a smooth road with undulations. You need to slow down a bit. The suspension is too soft for my liking. The headlights don’t seem too powerful. I will get an upgrade in coming months. Will need your suggestions.

Please feel free to shoot your queries.

Exterior Very good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Give you the feel of a sedan. Leg space is the best in the segment.

Good looks, reasonable space, interiors, smooth steering, AC, rear sensor & Camera, bluetooth,Low mileage in city, low seating, very low pick up in 2nd gear, bit expensive
