So Full of Options

The brand new Hyundai i20 has joined our long term fleet. Here is the first impression.

The last few weeks I have been receiving constant updates on how the Hyundai i20 has been racking up sales figures for Hyundai. The i20 also proved its mettle in the AUTO BILD INDIA road test taking top spot. So it was but obvious that we put the car through our long term test cycle. So here is our first impression.

First and foremost, the i20 looks the part. It has received a multitude of creases which make it look smart. It has a 'hunkered down' look especially from the rear. A special mention to the smart alloy wheels which complement the looks of the car.


I love the way the car 'wakes up'! The moment one approaches it with the key in the pocket, the mirrors unfold. Step inside and there is an aura of luxury. The all new dash looks good and quality of plastics are top notch as well. Press the start button and the lights gradually light up instead of just popping up! It is all kind of soothing. But the one thing which has made life rather easy for me is its Bluetooth connectivity. It is something that is available in a host of cars, but in the Hyundai one can store most of the data from the phone thus ensuring ease of operation. The voice quality too is good and an echo is missing, which is great.
