I had the 2019 DCT model and it was an amazing car. It ticked a lot of boxes and was surprisingly stable at high speeds (around 160 kmh, don’t ask how I know). I have driven 55k kms in under 2 years, went to Italy, France and many places. Never had a single issue. It’s an underrated car.

When he reviews "NORMAL" cars he expects them to have the features materials and build quality of much more expensive vehicles. Who cares about hard plastics on a dashboard? I don't fondle or squeeze the one in any of my vehicles. The only time I touch the dashboard is to clean it.
Matt actually missed an important thing about this car: the clutch is "by wire", the pedal isn't directly connected to the clutch, but uses an electrical signal and an actuator. That allows the car to decouple the engine from the transmission, allowing the car to coast when you lift the foot from the throttle, and at the same time makes the clutch pedal lighter and easier to use in city traffic.
Oh Matt, always risking his delicate hands on the scratchy plastic though he might break a nail.. he does it for the good of the public. What a great chap!
all Hyundai theta engines cease up around 50k-90k. thats why Hyundai changes its name to "smart stream". they are exact same engines but pretending as newly designed engine. Do not trust Hyundai - KIA.
This is the car for someone who just wants ‘a car’ they do not care about anything just four wheels, goes, stops can put things in it. Everything else is a bonus. The kind of person when asked what car they drives would answer “a blue one”
Actually the exterior got me first and I had no issue with the plastic interior. I would rather have the i20s interior than piano black everywhere which gets dirty AF. The digital dash and the reverse camera also sold me on the car because here the i20 with all these costs much less than an entry level 208 or the cheapest Fabia/Fiesta/Astra. The only car offering better value for money is the new Dacia Sandero BUT after seeing them both, the i20 felt night and day compared to that.
Hi Matt, nice review that helped made my choice for this i20 about 6 months ago :) however, here in France we have slightly different caracs for the high-level: no heated seats (shame), dual-clutch automatic gearbox with 7 speeds (very cool, and gives a level 2 autonomous driving), two-tone paint (black on the roof) and the car is fitted with 17" Hankook Ventus Prime 3 tires (less noise tan Michelin, and grips a bit better on the dry). After more than 10k kilometers, it's a very nice car, playful on twisty roads, awesome on long highways trips! If I had to change it, it would only be for the N version with 204hp 😁
You'll be surprised to know that the i20 in India is much better than that of the UK i20. How you may ask?, Here are the reasons : 1. Better fit and finish (look at the review of Indian i20 and check out its interior) 2. Many engine options : • 1.2L petrol (4 cylinder) • 1.5L diesel (4 cylinder) • 1.0 L turbo (which produces 118bhp of power and 172 Nm of torque, the UK counterpart as per this video, only produces 100bhp of power) 3. Many transmission options : 1. Manual 2. IMT 3. DCT automatic 4. Many free colour options Seems like Hyundai is upset with Britishers calling them "Hayundai".
A request from Sweden. Please add litres per 100 km in your reviews as well. You might have an wider audience than you think Mat:) thank you for great content!
They tried hard to make it look different actually, the design of the back of this car is a hot mess! It has all the right ingredients but everything in the back is misplaced...
Nah I disagree. Some people just can never be satisfied. Any less lines and u would complain it's too boring. There's never a new car when people don't seriously complain about unless it's much more expensive...
The footage of overtaking capability on the motorway is totally staged, unless the model being driven is the 1.2L 84BHP base spec version (not available with mild hybrid) ! Having driven the 100PS 1.0L turbo 7 speed DCT, it has more than plenty enough oomph to zip past traffic in the outer lane, without holding up on-coming vehicles, especially vans (utter nonsense)! Furthermore, it is very composed overtaking on motorway bends with Lane keep assist. Why is Matt deliberately driving like an octogenarian at 9:22 ("Driving Miss Daisy" impersonation) ?

@@sierrachief117 I don't know about other's, but I prefer diesel hatchbacks with 6 speed manual. But yeah I get you, they should have given a DCT gearbox on the diesel too(with paddle shifters).
Exterior design language reminds me VAG group and more precisely Seat design language. Without badges first time seeing it, I definitely would guess this as some new Seat model. I like it.
5:18 I own this exact model, and I was wondering why I don’t have a second floor. I thought it was because of the battery and the heat it generates, but the reason is that I can put it in a lower position. This is genius!

Yeah jo... for us it is upmarket... cus we've never had a hatch loaded with features like this one... the VW polo in our country has been the same since its launch ..... the only other car it can be compared with is altroz from tata... its an Indian automobile manufacturer.....
Things are different in India. Due to high import tax. Some of the best cars cost too much. What will be his opinion about Fortuner legendar which costs over $60000 in India.
In Brazil, I’ve got the impression that this i20 could perfectly face VW Polo, Peugeot 208, and GM Onix... But Hyundai chose to keep selling the “fish-car” HB20! 😑
unfortunately, here in Paraguay they sell that HB20, and it doesn't even have a Smart Key ... Try importing the i20, but it will cost me approximately $ 30,000, the Tecno version...
@@loosabway3400 yes they do. My Polo has insulation on the hood and one thing that surprised me foamy insulation in the A pilars !!! Many cars from C segment don't pay so much insulation not again B(Polo) segment. Isnulation in the pillars helps with wind noise and to put such an insulation on a city car that would almost never see open road driving says a lot about the dedication of german engineers to mute noice
Taxes+better safety equipment. Even Hyundai also does the stupid cost cutting maruthi is infamous for. Although it is locally made which makes the car slightly cheaper.
There is a bit of Seat to the external design and I agree the rear is a mess. As with so many new cars, the dashboard design leaves a lot to be desired. Consolidating controls in to a touch screen has left designers with acres of blank dash. Personally, I think the traditional design with switches, dials and knobs looks far better, is easier to use and safer when on the move.
Audi but if they were asian; sharp edges just like audi, except audi tends to use more.. "parallel" lines and it's just more typically European.. that makes sense? totally see what you mean tho. good observation

No, he just means it is as good as his 911, but the 911 is far better, and nothing is similar with his 911. He just wants to make it sound interesting.
It also comes with an IMT or a 6speed auto DCT, or 7speed auto CVT. I hope they give manual on the N-Line too, or give pedal shifters, cause the non N-Line I20 automatics doesn't get pedal shifters on their automatics.

I really like how mat runs through things at the start of the video for a bit more of a fast paced review
💯🤗
absolutely right
@I WANT ŞĘX !!! SEE MY VÌDEÓ stfu!!!!
@I WANT ŞĘX !!! SEE MY VÌDEÓ the f is wrong with you?!!!!
£18.5k!!!!! I remember when a polo was sub £12k and I’m 18. It’s crazy how much more expensive cars have gotten within the last decade
From a distance it looks like a Seat Leon. Greetings from Bulgaria!
Just bought a new one in Spain. So pleased with it.
For once he mentions tyre noise.
How many really noisy German cars has he tested and never even mentioned the din from the tyres?
All a bit obvious.
Generaly they have much better insolation
@@BrateTebra123 German cars?
You are joking.
@@loosabway3400 yes they do
Yes.
They have better noise insulation than a WWII tank, maybe
@@loosabway3400 yes they do. My Polo has insulation on the hood and one thing that surprised me foamy insulation in the A pilars !!! Many cars from C segment don't pay so much insulation not again B(Polo) segment. Isnulation in the pillars helps with wind noise and to put such an insulation on a city car that would almost never see open road driving says a lot about the dedication of german engineers to mute noice
Nice try from getting some reputation back after Tucson review 😂
The fully loaded top variant of this car is available at 13649 in India. That's the on-road price. I'm shocked that it's 23000 pounds in the UK. 😲
Taxes+better safety equipment. Even Hyundai also does the stupid cost cutting maruthi is infamous for. Although it is locally made which makes the car slightly cheaper.
In India, it is one of the premium cars and it hurts when you say 'a small car'😂.
The pain of being born in a poor country.
True. It is quite an aspirational car for the middle class here 🤣
It is not a luxurious car even in India. It is an upper level hatchback. It is a really ordinary car that won't make your neighbours jealous.
The amount of times Mat says in every video ‘Click on the pop-up banner’ is sometimes rediculous! 😂
There is a bit of Seat to the external design and I agree the rear is a mess. As with so many new cars, the dashboard design leaves a lot to be desired. Consolidating controls in to a touch screen has left designers with acres of blank dash. Personally, I think the traditional design with switches, dials and knobs looks far better, is easier to use and safer when on the move.
Everytime Mat talks goods about it, he looks like he's about to have a stroke!
10:37 that’s not an x6, it’s a 2-series!
Active Tourer

@4:46 wait, if you could fit that 4th one in, surely you could get a 5th one in on the left?
Carbuyer's review of this car is much much better.
These new Hyundai's are starting to look like Audi's TBH.
Audi but if they were asian; sharp edges just like audi, except audi tends to use more.. "parallel" lines and it's just more typically European.. that makes sense?
totally see what you mean tho. good observation
Watching Mat from Nairobi, give me likes for the first the time
Why on earth would this car come with Michelin sport cup tires on it?
You guys should make a magazine. What Car? Do it and I think you could do it better. Just a suggestion. 😀
I would rather have the new Dacia Sandero.
When is the review coming Mat?
@I WANT ŞĘX !!! SEE MY VÌDEÓ why is a sex bot on a car review😳
@@jake8793 it is literally in every sub-comment.
Dacia? Hahahaha
😡🤬

So satisfying how the 12v socket cover blends into the plastics!!
"Only one 1 litre engine". "You'll be able to get a 1.6 N version too"
He's obviously referring to the non performance models. Come on. 🤦🏽♂️
Hy I'm from india I work as sales relationship officer for KVR HYUNDAI , and in here we got 120ps / 170 nm torq @ 1500 to 4k rpm , with 1 ltr GDI turbo petrol . And we got some cool features too as a sunroof, 7speed dct , cooled glove box ,wireless charging and 6airbags as standard in asta (o) .thank you .
It has the same tyres as your 911
wOW sO SimILaR!!
No, he just means it is as good as his 911, but the 911 is far better, and nothing is similar with his 911. He just wants to make it sound interesting.
@@johndavidson3424 I believe the technical term is "Clickbait".
Handbrake and manual! I just love this car immediately.
It also comes with an IMT or a 6speed auto DCT, or 7speed auto CVT. I hope they give manual on the N-Line too, or give pedal shifters, cause the non N-Line I20 automatics doesn't get pedal shifters on their automatics.
Totally agree with the handbrake comment, electric handbrakes a pain. I've an Infinti q30, electric handbrake under the dash... Why?!
Love the M4 folding mirrors
Every hyundai car grille looks like they are discovering new species of catfish and putting it's face on their new car.
True that, same with Ford!
10:36 that wasn't an X6; that was a 2 Grand Tourer
The light bar at the back is like the audi rs e tron gt
