The i20 ticks all the right boxes for those who want a good city car: it has sharp looks, handles well in city traffic, has a powerful diesel engine and feels built to last. There are a few letdowns, like the interior space and turbo lag but in the light of Hyundai’s legendary service, the ownership experience as a whole will be positive. If you’re a young couple on the lookout for powerful diesel car for city use, the i20 CRDi with its powerful engine, sharp looks and high residuals should be at the top of your list.
