Categories (out of 5)
Exterior The car looks quite charming from exterior. It fits the small car category the best.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors are the best part of the car. There is enough space and comfort at the rear and front.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine seems to be lacking power compared to its peers. The gearbox is smooth and the fuel economy is decent.
Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality is smooth and handling is easy,but for the road view from the drivers point of view, which is not good enough. The height of the driver's seat being low creates an issue with near viewing.
Final Words The car scores well in terms of looks andd comfort but would need extra power for sure. I would call it complete value for money although its a good buy.
Areas of improvement The Power/pick-up on the second gear. The ground clearance of the vehicle and height of the drivers seat.

Exterior TOTALLY LOOK LIKE A EUROPIAN CAR.

EVEN FRONT PASSANGER CAN OPERATE CENTER LOCKING FOR HIS SIDE, AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER, FOLDABLE KEYS SET OF 2, STERING AUDIO CONTROL , GEAR CHANGE INDICATER AND LOT MORE TO DISCOVER. SPACE IS AS GOOD AS SEDAN, TOTALLY COMFORTABLE IN CITY DRIVING.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox SILENT ENGINE YOU CANT HEAR ANY NOISE IN CABIN, FOR FUEL ECONOMY I CANT SAY NOW BECAUSE MY SWEETY DELEIVERD YESTERDAY NO DOUBT SMOOTH GEAR BOX.
Ride Quality & Handling RIDE IN I20 FEEL LIKE YOU DIVE IN BUTTER. FOR HANDLING CANT SAY NOW.
Final Words IF YOU LIKE COMFORT, GOOD QUALITY OF INTERIOR , LOTS OF FEATURE AND NO PROBLEM IN YOUR BUDGET FOR BUYING HATCHBACK THEN DEFINATLY BUY I20 (THIS IS MY OPINION).
Areas of improvement I think 1 month waiting time for this car is very hard, for my side is very difficult to wait 30 days to deliverd.
COMFORT, RICH FEEL INSIDE, SMOOTH GEAR, VERY EFFECTIVE ACC, USB CONNECTIVITY, REAR LEG ROOM, BOOT SPCANT SAY NOW

Exterior European looks,the front grill looks sporty,the bogy curvs are smooth and makes the car look more sedan like looks,the tail lights are inspired by the open astra 2007(europen model). Over all it looks uber cool!! will catch up the eyes of car fanotics!!
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interior plastic quality is good as compared to the other models of this segment,for eg:swift,fabia and figo.The combined 6 speakers,4 in all 4 doors and 2 tweeters in the front door give perfect surround sound and you wont need to add bass tube or subwoofer for bass,thanks to the 4 mono magnetic speakers by JBL,you can even connect you phone or ipod with the help of aux or usb cable.front leg room is more than enough while the rear seats can handel not more than 3 people comfortably.you get enough space in the boot to keep atleast 3 medium sized suitcases.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine performance is fair,the pick up is quick thanks to 1.2 kappa petrol engine curning out 90 bhp.fuel economy is SHIT,for us indians,most important aspect is the fuel economy,i20 would barely give you 9 kmpl on city trafic and 11 on highways,which the fuel prices going high,its gonna hurt you like a nail in you chest after every time you fill up your tank,gear box is kinda of messed up,i have 3 i20's,all of them have the same problem,the gear some times jammes in between R, which is quite irritating.
Ride Quality & Handling The suspension of i20 is very soft or you can call it asfalt suspension,it NOT MEANT FOR INDIAN ROADS WITH THE PUD HOLES,within a year you will need to change your shockers so try to drive slow to bumpers or it will cost you around RS: 15000,
Handling is as good as merc c-class,the steering wheel is a bit stiff,gives you better control than the super loose steering wheels.
Final Words Overall its a good car, like all other cars it has it own weak points and good points.
if you are about to perchase an i20, I would suggest to check out the swift and polo. Although its on your choice\...😟 thank you!
Areas of improvement The quality of engine,suspension,brakes,gearbox and seats!

Exterior Nothing much to write about the styling. Its Uber Cool 😎.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Packed with lots of features. The interior looks well built with good quality materials unlike the Marutis, but not up to the mark of the Germans. There are lots and lots of features like gear shift indicators, climate control. I am yet to discover all the features. The sun roof is sadly stopped for the diesel version. Would have been a better buy with that. Also, the driver arm rest is missing. If you could provide it in Getz, why not in i20?
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent CRDI engine. there is a small turbo lag, but its not noticable as seen in the Verna. Great mileage. Getting almost 12 in the city and 16-17 in the highways. Gearbox could have been better. The Getz gearbox was butter smooth (I previously owned a Getz).
Ride Quality & Handling The real pain area is the high speed stability and the steering. Come on Hyundai, i20 deserved a pure hydraulic unit as seen in the Getz. The steering is very vague in high speeds and there is a mild body roll to add to it. Should have the option of a 15 inch tyres. I am planning to change the tyres to 15 inchers (Guys, does this affect the warranty?). The braking was excellent with the all 4 disc breaks and ABS.
Final Words Well, its an excellent city vehicle that does not that bad in the highways. A good family car though. Goes well with the family who does like to drive in 100-120 in highways. 140+, the vehicle feels unstable, eventhough the engine doesnt feel strained. I was in 120 in the 6th gear and the rpm was aroung 2400 only. Still in the power band. But, if you are an enthusiast who likes high speed, please go for the Punto 90HP. Its much better in the highway.
Areas of improvement It is already giving Hyundai a terrific run. 8000+ cars every month in the premium hatchback is just awesome. Addition of 15 inch tyres and a hydraulic steering can throw the Punto and polo out of the contention. Now, the Punto and Polo beats i20 only in the handling part.
Thanks

Exterior Very butch and stylish.But rear looks bland.The turn indicators and Automatic badge add appeal and mine i20 Asta (O) With Sunroof is a Silky Beige colour.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors look bad but blue backlit dials look sporty and funky-The SantaFe,New i10 and New Verna Transform.Maybe Hyundai New Accent(RB Concept)can get CD player and Climate control for blue backlighting,Space is good.But has all features,4 AirBags,Climate control,Folding key,Seatbelt warning system and a Sunroof and the Turn Indicators.Rear seats have less headroom but are comfy and greart for adults more than Swift.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox A 100 PS engine means great power and performance and a camshaft engine.The mileage is good.The gearbox is good.
Ride Quality & Handling Handdling is good but ride is very sloppy and very choppy.
Final Words You go for i20 if you like its looks and Sunroof+4 AirBags plus space and comfort and even aftersales.Ride is too unsettled and it is priced bad.This price,6.51 lakh is great VFM to less people.Or else i20 is good.Buy one i20 now!!!It is a good car!!! Can ignore Swift and Fabia 1.6 for some time and check and test drive Hyundai i20????Go for it!Ride and price are poor and the bland rear but it is a good car.
Areas of improvement Price.This car is close to base VW Vento price.Sloppy ride and the ride can be better.What about rear? Improve rear.

Exterior I got a white colured baby and believe me people stare at it, the looks are the best in this segment of all cars like swift,polo,punto etc. It look so beautiful from the rear as well as the front(also from the sides),hats off to the hyundai car designing team.I am in love with my white baby.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The car is very spacious from inside and is very comfortable. I had an Alto before this and as compared to that this baby feels like a big hall.The music system with the USB and IPOD connections is just awesome, the small chiller is a cool feature and the digitl display is nice.The seats at the back are also good,there is ample boot space(a child can comfortable sllep in it!!!).But the AC is not that effective as that of Swift.You can place 2-3 bottles between the 2 front seats.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I did a test drive of swift,swift dezire,punto,polo and i found i20 to be the best as far looks,road grip was concerned.The gear box is covered leather and is stylish,also switching gears from one to other is pure luxury and very smooth.The engine is so silent that when i switch in the ignition,sometimes i have to press the accelerator to make sure whether it has started or not, the engine noise is absolutely minimal.I drove it from Bhiwani to Lucknow on the first day of its delivery from Bhiwani and it was a total distance of about 700km,and it gave me an amzing mileage of 18.I have driven it for about 950Km and it gives me an average of 13 in Lucknow.Whoever says that the pickup of i20 is not good is wrong.It has a fine pickup and its so smooth it feels like a hot knife going through butter.The pickup is not good when the AC is on but its ok.I would like to add here that in terms of pickup,swift is better.
Ride Quality & Handling The shockers are not that good as i thought but the electronic steering is amazing,it makes for an excellent city drive and makes for an easy handling of the car,you can drive it with a few fingers,i make by baby go zig zag easily.The clutch and accelarator footrest add on to the comfort.
Final Words If you are going for style,luxury and comfort then no other car gives it to u all in one package other than i20,it gives the luxury of a big sedan.Also it looks sophisitacted and pretty,the only reason i did not go for swift was beacuse of its odd looks(looks like a fat toad).
Areas of improvement The pickup decreases sharply when the AC is turned on and the AC in itself is not that powerful(as compared to swift).But overall this baby is babilicious,pretty and luxurious.If you are looking for fuel efficiency then maybe you will not go for it.If your budget i till 5.5l and you want luxury and style.go for this baby...i promise you it wont let you down.
Very spacious,Looks-both exterior and interior,music system,excellent grip of the steeringPickup when the AC is on

Exterior Undoubtly i20 is the awesome looking car in current market, bought i20 era white(Pertrol) on 26th August, have completed around 3k+kms, though i20 was my first choice by looking at it esp crytal while color, but due to cost constraint planned to buy less priced car, before buying I did a survey for more than 4 moths, I paid inital booking amt for fait punto & VW polo and got it cancelled and went for ubercool car taking a big risk. But now i belive it has completed paid off, when pple stare my car on road. and i enjoy the comfort of driving. I learnt driving just before I took the car but still am able to get a mileage of around 18 on highways tested many times,, and around 14+ inside city with normal traffice condtional, I really dont know what to tell when I raise complaint about mileage, cant say anything whether my driving is good or my car is good but above said is the real fact am happy about it.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I have basic model due to cost constraint, am happy with the drive smoothnes, space and comfort.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is a bit underpower that what everyone tells as this is my first car and I have not checked other cars much for me it is quite good and having happy dirviing. Can't ask much a petrol car giving around 18 on highways and 14+ in Bangalore City condition, Gear's are very smooth, best example is myself, without much dirving expercinece first day itself i was able to drive the car with ease, now after 3-4month I have been quite expert.. Also to tell sometime it will not fall easily to 1st and reverse gear.. which i feel need to get it checked with the showroom.
Ride Quality & Handling Smooth ride and handling is also very good.
Final Words Awesome car, though bit exepensive worth for money.
Areas of improvement To work on a/c a bit as i felt it is not so effective or may be am expecting too much..

Exterior Exteriors are really good, definetly attracts everyone. Best in its segment.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) One of the best dashboards, ODO has better color combination. Great Controls on steering like audio, blu-tooth, stereo controls are awesome. Gear change indicator is an Awesome which keeps you in correct gear for better performance. Lot of space to carry all your laguage.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is under powered mainly on hilly regions. AC is not upto mark. Suspension is bad. Frequent gear changes needed mainly compared to Swift.polo etc. If you are used to gear changes you will definetly enjoy the drive. 6-speed needs frequent gear changes. i20 cars manufactured between 2010 and 2011 has steering ratteling problem, even though Hyundai knows about that they dint even bothers to fix it, which is really bad. after lot of complaints the problem got fixed for my car.
Along with that hyundai forget to set auto door lock after 40 KM/hr speed for these modles. Which is not automatically fixed. Got fixed only after raising it.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality is Awesome easy to handle even at high speeds. Max sped is 180Kms/Hr.
Final Words Good car to buy. May be little over priced due to lot of features. Servicing Costs is high.
Free service : 5000+
Paid Service : 7000+
cost may be more.. depends on problems and your service advisor..
Areas of improvement
- Can provide Better Service.
- Should fix known problems for sold cars too which adds value to Hyundai.
- Should Keep track of kind of service done for the car from the service center, Service advisors forcing to go for engine decarboniosing, AC cleaning etc unnessarly.

Exterior Excellent styling with clean lines and an aristocratic look. Appealing from all angles.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Great features, very spacious interiors and extremely comfortable seating. The car now comes with automatic climate control (I have the older version though), all-round power windows, digital driver information panel, in-dash AM/FM/CD player with four speakers and two tweeters, seat-belt warning chime for the driver, rake and reach adjustable steering, cooled glove box, central locking with key etc. My dealer in Pune offered remote central locking as a free accessory.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good performance except for the slightly sluggish second gear. I have driven the car for more than 6,500 kms (sedate driving). Fuel economy: 14.7 in Pune, 18.1 on Pune-Mumbai Expressway (100% AC at level 1).
Ride Quality & Handling Good handling and stability, brakes are very good. Ride could have a been a touch softer. Ground clearance too can do well with some improvement.
Final Words An excellent car, a VFM product with lots of space, features and comfort.
Areas of improvement Power in second gear, ground clearance.
