Yes, the fuel rating is not accurate in India and this engine is sensitive to fuel and higher the number the better the performance. A general note on the type of fuel to used from manufacturer would be a good add on.

@@abhinav.vatsayan Although for this cost sensitive market, i am not really sure that they would be keen on doing this as it will effectively make a negative impact on the image by kind of making the car come across as high maintenance which will not be a good reflection on the normal buyers that aren't as keen on extracting most performance out of the engine.

New model has a mode selector which for some use cases is better, but it doesn't make that much of a difference. That may be better for city usage, the new selector

Kia base models se hai sab features dera ha hai

pushbutton start is available in asta and asta(o), plus driver side one touch up, rain sensor is something that i miss as well. Also, not sure which kia are you talking about, since seltos base model does not have any features to begin with, even the side mirrors are manually adjustable so.

@@abhinav.vatsayan ok bro the power window control light sab work. Karthe hai

@@abhinav.vatsayan old i20 2012 have a rain sensing wiper

So why a new model not giving rain sensor 😕 saare company esa hi hai india me N model have all features

Thanks bro❤️

N8 (dct) preface lift model. I am not the fan of the headlights on the car, i find the throw to be a bit lacklustre, leaves you wanting for more in low beam. High beam is sufficient enough for when they are needed.

Thanks man!!

Thanks, that would be the parcel tray out back. Unfortunately its a flaw in the new i20 where its a bit short on the sides so that rattles over bumps, the suspension being stiff also adds to that. Since that moves a bit more and make that rattle, there is a temporary fix, i usually have a tissue folder and fixed in the gap that takes care of the issue but that slips out eventually.

@@abhinav.vatsayan Got it. Did you ever feel the Sportz or Asta models would've performed better in city conditions? I live in a city known for its traffic and my usage would mainly be in traffic conditions. I'm not clear if the DCT gearbox will be able to cope in a stop-go traffic.

So it depends on your usage, i like quick shifts and immediate response from the gearbox and I am willing to live with the disadvantaged of dct. It’s able to squeeze the performance out of the 1.0turbo engine. This is based on my personal taste and needs. Also they have done something clever with this dct to protect the clutch from overheating and wear and tear, they have made it slow to down shift from first to second gearbox and it doest not launch off the line. But imo if you can live with the rubber band effect of the cvt it’s a better gearbox for city usage, easy to live with. If you are speaking in terms of engine 1.2 NA in sports and asta is pretty capable to handle city+highway use but weirdly enough the average for petrol is 10-11 kmpl only under stop go traffic.

I don’t have a action cam to capture that footage

Hey man, nice to meet you as well! It’s the 1.0 turbo engine, the intial sound is not that much but mid range grunt is good. Sure will make a short out of this.

Safety is not what you have when you crash, safety is something that helps you to avoid crashes in the first place. What you are saying is passive safety, actual safety is active where in you don’t get into a crash because of the car being firstly build to handle better i.e chassis, good suspension, traction, abs, esp, etc. so yes this is a 3 star car but it’s equipped with great active safety equipment. Search for motoinc safety podcast you will know what i mean. So safety is quite misunderstood in india as ncap rating

It really is a great all rounder in terms of performance and practicality

Thanks bro!

❤️

❤️❤️

Thank bro! Lets just say you can’t push the car in rain or you will see the traction losing and see the ecu kicking in

@@abhinav.vatsayan wet rorads arent really a treat for the Secura drives then and gives the ECU a chance to interfere where it generally lets you do the work😂😂😂

They aren’t the best, like in and around corners they tend to loose grip when trying to tuck the car in they understeer and then start to slip away 😂

@@abhinav.vatsayan a good swinging motion around the corners does tend to IMPROVE confidence and enjoyment normally😂😂😂

Enjoyment for sure tests your skills😂😂

Glad you liked it

Power house you have at your disposal, N line like a joker car, can be a driver’s car or a family car as and when needed

Yup have that in my mind as well!

Thanks! Trying to do a bit higher pov

Hahha i had to learn it the hard way, definitely vredesteins can be an option if on a budget but i will definitely try for Michelin’s

@@abhinav.vatsayanThe michellin's would pair very well with this car and maybe impact the fuel economy aswell 🤞🏻

They will definitely, did saw someone with ps4 on and heard good reviews except for prone to punchers due to soft compound

It’s noisy but not underpowered since it has a turbo unit. Plenty of power at hand.

Copyright issue so can’t do that, unfortunately

Sure thing next time around.

❤️

Can't wait! For the long term usage💯

@@abhinav.vatsayan just a matter of time until this becomes normal😁

❤️

Heavy stop go traffic expect anywhere 8.5 kmpl normally its around 9-12 kmpl

Modern car have a brilliant feature called electronic steering wheel. That helps do what i do. Plus don’t know about you but i don’t need both hands to drive within city speed limits. Up your skills dude!

Need to get a action cam 360* plus i love this aspect of video genre.

Initially yes lagging but comparing to the 1.6 initial bite will not be there but it has punch in the majority of the mid the top range. So it will feel a bit laggy due to small capacity below 2k rpm. Plus 3 cylinder does not have a different in this other than the refinement side of things

Maybe cosmetic other than that not possible chassis is different so won’t be able to mod the hardware stuff onto this car. Unfortunately!

@@abhinav.vatsayan I mean spoiler the sky blue colour or alloy wheels

Yes you can, get the colour changed in the rc and good to go.

@@abhinav.vatsayan bro this car have a 360º camera and rain sensing wiper?

No for both, unfortunately it misses on those, i feel at this price point it should have at least rain sensing wipers

Working on the next one, major would be the points i would like to talk about from a drivers perspective mostly. So next one might be a review of sort.

Its not that much but a bit seeps in.

Yesss will definitely test drive that one as well. Hopefully they make a good driving car.

Kya n line se better hogi altroz racer 😂

Apne gadi ke indicator dekhe mirror me nahi side me he ❤ I'm not a fan of Hyundai or tata or other car but n line is my dream❤❤❤

"takkar" 😂 kuch bhi. Kaha n line aur kaha altroz racer. Gaadi ka naam bhi kya rakha hai, racer. Jisne mein naam socha hai 10 saal ka bacha hoga, racer 😂 looks mein n line 100 guna achhi hai. Altroz dikhne mein tatti lagti hai.. indicator side mein hai, alloys itne ghatiya hai, interior chhapri tata wala, steering wheel 5 saal purana lag raha hai, 2 stripes laga diye saamne jaise ki hotwheels hai 😂 n line ek dum premium sporty look deti hai aur altroz south africa mein chalne waali taxi lagti hai 😂

I am hoping they make something like tiago jtp but it will hardly be the case since they have moved from that genre of cars a while back and more focused on family oriented cars but altroz in general is a good car with really good suspension overall not particularly for corner stability. So my bet would be that they just boost the torque, a bit punchy engine and tweek the ecu a bit with some suspension work (hopefully) It will be a better overall package than Altroz (i-turbo) with more creature comfort feature. But we will have to see, how it turns out. I am going for a test drive for sure.

Thanks bro!!❤️

Will need to up my setup for that in the coming months.

❤️

Yup, back seat might be a bit less accommodating but front should be good, since it is hight adjustable (driver). My opinion would be to get a test drive to figure it out how this accommodating to your frame.

@@abhinav.vatsayan Thanks for the reply

On expressway its a bit boring, but else where its not at all boring. Dct takes aways one point of contact for sure but gives you so much in return, for instance instant shifts, not sure if manual can shift that fast, in S mode its always in the right gear and rev band. Secondly i am mostly stuck in delhi traffic so its a peace of mind you can cover longer distances within the city, left leg is relaxed. On mountains its simply fun.

Hopefully in the near future!

❤️❤️

Our roads will fuck up that hard suspension any day, ask anyone who has coilovers mod done they will tell you it make up for unbearable ride quality. Add 18-19 inch wheels to it and you have a disaster waiting to happen on indian roads with surprise potholes waiting around the corner😂

Not purely cosmetic since there is quite a lot of suspension and steering feedback work done, it handles like a dream. You will need to experience both n line and normal i20 to experience the difference. But yes no where near the OG N that is sold outside of india, which would be too costly here not a viable option for mass market as of now.

@@abhinav.vatsayan ya I will test drive soon!

Its crazy breaking performance for such a small car stops on a dime just the tyres are the limiting factor here for breaking.

@@abhinav.vatsayan Mene ek review me Deka ki nline manual ke who reviewer brake lagaya or gaadi rukh gayi. Lekin usne bola brake not good😆

Depends where he might be breaking, wet road or gravel so it can have some difference but its more than adequate. Also could be he pulled the clutch while breaking that might be one reason for slower performance
