- This is the Hyundai i20. It’s a sensible, spacious alternative to cars like the Volkswagen Polo and Ford Fiesta. But in a class full of stylish, fun-to-drive superminis, what does the i20 offer that’s unique among its rivals? I try to find out in my full, in-depth review.

I live in Brazil. We don't have i20 here. I have no money to buy a car but for some reason I still watch your videos! Great car channel!
i´v owned a 2018 pre-facelift 1.2L i20 since early 2019 and after 5 years of owner ship and 3 trips across Europe it is still going strong and it has been absolutely faultless, the only thing i have had to change (apart from regular yearly maintenance) were the rear brake pads. Try that with a 6 year old VW or Ford....
I own an i20 in India since 2016 and it’s mid option and it has center arm rest with storage, rear AC vents
Why are most people in the comments hating this car? It is hell lot of a car for the price. We have one as a city car in the family (alongside A6 allroad) and it is a super value for the money. We paid like 11.500 eur for the medium trim with alloy wheels and 1.4 (4cyl) petrol engine (which is btw 100 bhp, which is pretty good for a 1.200kg car). Reliability and usability is pretty good too (no problems in 2 years whatsoever). Yes it does not have the infotainment etc (in most European markets it is only in the highest trim), but what you want for the price. One thing though I do not agree with the review: it is really noisy at highway speeds. It is just a car for the city (not mentioning the gearbox with super short gears - and that is the 6spd one). But as a value car for the city it excels imo.
yeah it's not 1200 kg. More like 1050
Hrvoje J. The one with 1.4 petrol engine is 1200 kg. The technical documentation says so.
Juraj Barbuš Well that just can't be true haha check again. The diesel version is the heaviest and it doesnt even weigh that much.
they are hating because they are snobs toward anything not german probably
Who needs city car you lazy bastard..go by feet
Very good design. A straightforward practical car, without all the pretentious crap that other manufacturers try to foist on you.
Bruh you aint getting away with that voice crack 4:05 LOOL
Lmao
0:58 - I would agree with you on the entry level car not having air con. I mean, who really wants to buy a car in 2018 that doesn’t have air conditioning?!
Josh Bacon specially if you live in a tropical country like me.
People in Scandinavia wouldn't. Believe me :-)
Scandinavia. And any other country without global warming.
Arnis Tarassu everywhere has global warming. thats why its called global. but some places experience much less than others

Rubbish Joke
Biceps game is getting stronger
💪🏼🙄🙄🙄🙄😏😏😏
My 2012 i20 came loaded with auto lights and viper, 4 disc brakes with abs and ebd, tilt and telescopic steering, front and rear fog lamps, auto dimming RVM, Electric and heated ORVM, reverse camera with sensors, stereo with 6 speakers, dual airbags apart from the usuals like air con and powered all round windows etc. Also, its 1.4 lt 90 hp diesel with enough punch although I have tuned it for 120 hp with simple mods. Its makes an excellent car for intercity travel and is comfortable.
I saw a 71 plate Corsa which looked good but has drum breaks at the back. I was really surprised because I thought they were a thing of the past.
I wish there was an i20N so I could talk about buying it and never actully do it.
I'm up for that, but only if Hyundai makes it look like the WRC version.
pSyk in South Africa we do have it
I have one, pretty cool car, looks like a racer but power is a bit lacking
@Mental Divergence there is one, wa launched in South Africa 2017
It's not a a proper N though basically just a chip and a sports exhaust.
OMG finally someone with an Oneplus 5/5t in Europe.
I own both OnePlus 5t and elite i20 top spec and both of them are doing pretty good job. I am sure one wouldn't regret owning them.
I am a fan of your reviews and you are getting better every time... I also can see a good flow in the new vedios this year which is great... So continue the good work 👍 ☺
Best car ever bought. Drive it for 2 years and love it.
Are there any problems with it so far?
I am very impressed by the i20. I would not buy it as of now but if I was getting a car of that size today, yea maybe I would get it. Never thought I would say that I could possibly get a Hyundai a couple of years ago.
I brought a new one just before christmas love it i got the premium se with the armrest and no sat nav but can easily attach your phone to the dashboard as long as you don't have an LG like i do . All in all very happy
I drive it now for almost a year and i am extremly happy with it. It drives great and for the price, you get a very nice and good looking car. Go for the 1.0 l Turbo tough
Hi. How fuel efficient would you say the car is?
@@esihlephindilehlongwane6728 i'd say it's ok, not the best in class but still pretty good.
I've heard Mat talk about car wow so many times that I've forgotten it's an ad 🤞🤣
India's most loved hatchback 😍

Meanwhile, in India....
@@fazilahamed1240 bro they call it a premium car💀
@@jaafarzaidi3390 no we don't 😵💫 it is among the most selling hatchbacks in India. How can it be premium and best selling at the same time 😮
@@jaafarzaidi3390its is a premium hatchback
Just hired one of these, nice car, no gimmicks it was fairly basic with aircon. Decent ride and seems well built. 1 year old with 4 years warranty remaining for £8k makes it a good buy !
Whoops... Matt forgot about the glove box again 😂
The manual fits, so it can't be all bad. :)
Chup Ghode
Realy like are u that critical 🤔😂
For bigger people is actually better that central armrest isn't there because it would be in the way when shifting manual.
had one (2017) for 10 month, absolutely love it ! a bit tiny though, i'm 1.92m and nobody can sit behind me, but totally worth the money
Here in India we got a major facelift of this car this year(2018)
I've just collected my new (used i20) and I'm really impressed so far, it's got lots of equipment and good safety features. It drives well but the engine does lack a bit of punch so I need to be sure when I move off at a roundabout so that I won't get caught out when another car comes. It's okay when it's up to speed on the motorway and can keep pace with traffic. All in all a great value car with lots of equipment and space. A real bang for your buck. PS 45mpg combined seems pretty good for a 1.2 petrol.
There's a new 1.0 turbo witch is way faster than the old 1.2 petrol and 1.4 diesel
im going to chiptune my i20 later his year to get around or just above 100hp, hope this will solve the lack of a some punch (it's got 84hp stock)
I like the design of the i20 but wish it came with a bigger engine
Yes it would be amazing if it had a Honda Vtec engine 👍
0:03 현대 means Hyundai
That was my guess, but I've never invested 10 minutes to actually learn Hangul
It’s read as Hyundae
@@GBJWLCJW yeah korean read just hyundae
현대자동차!!!!!
I'm definitely buying this car.
What about the wind/tire noise compared to WV Polo? The noise (or the lack of it) is one of the most important aspects of a car for me.
in india you get projector lamps with drls, auto climate control and a rear ac vent.
UK model is shit bro! In India we also get better dual tone interiors.
Kunal Bhardwaj the European market (most of it) has the same in the highest trim. Except the rear vents.. It seems to be an Indian thing only.
Juraj Barbuš i think its mostly due to the countries weather conditions. In the uk front ac vents would probably be more then adequate for the hottest day but in india even with rear ac vents you will still be sweating between your cracks.
Indian version has also got Apple Car play and Android Auto.
I20 doesn't sell in Korea tho xD
This video wouldn’t help me decide which car to buy in B segment, it wasn’t compared to its competition but “it’s okay for a car in this price range” 🤗 didn’t help Mat, thanks for the video
I really love my i20 !!!
I love mine too but the break is not that perfect
Mat for Top Gear!
Nope.
Oh the Indian version gets a lot more goodies but looses something too... V get automatic Projector headlights, auto climate control(on higher spec variants),rear AC vents,centre arm rest.
But v only have a 1.2l petrol and a 1.4 turbo diesel... Sadly no turbo petrol and no false floor on boot...
Am a proud owner of this car...
Indian version get a sunroof in 2013 i20 model too and heated seats and automatic rain sensing wipers
I envy you people in the UK because your middle variants get such a lot of features.
Hyundai is making really decent cars now!
The Indian i20 is much better specced!
Because it sells better in India. The new model will have it's global debut at the Indian Auto Expo 2018. It's the car that gave Hyundai a more powerful stance in India alongside the Grand i10.
Gurkirat Singh no the update comes in 2020
@@rahuldogra it has come
L nah ! Most probably june ! Not anytime soon !
Hyundai told just days b4 auto expo 2020 that it would be delayed a few months! 😐
Lol... not while it has only 2 airbags
Absolutely gorgeous car....fair play to Hyundai, their designs are some of the best around this year :)
Good point especially when you see what Toyota are doing at the moment 🤢
@@luttrell1973 I don't know man but the new Toyota Corolla Hatchback is Epic imo.
Got this car (the middle range 87bhp) two months ago and I love it. It looks great, huge on the inside, handles well and even at this power level isn't too lazy if you shift right.
I did bought and installed a third party Android screen with Bluetooth, reversing camera and all, and replaced those horrible speakers.
Go ahead and buy it.
I drive it for about a year now, and that's a very good car, better than a Renault Clio for sure
Yep. I own one its called Elite i20 Magna here in India. Costs around 8000 Pounds. Has Aircon but no touchscreen. It also is a bit slower (85 bhp)
This car was launched as Elite i20 in India and was launched 3-4yrs ago!
It's been around in Europe for 3 years as well, this is just a minor update for 2018.
Floris Klaver ohh! So is this car called Elite i20 or i20! We haven't got this update yet! But I think a major facelift is due!
It's just called i20 here, in India European trim cars are often sold as a more luxury car because there is a huge difference in standards. And yes, it can definitely use a facelift.
In Turkey it's called i20 star :)
İn Turkey We Got This Car First! İf you look to street there are too much of them
I'm confused. I own an i20 and am 6 foot, and when I push the driver seat all the way back to my driving position there is NO way adult can sit behind me. Rear seat legroom is good for a toddler at best with tall adults in the front. It is supremely comfortable to drive though (for this segment) :)
I have this car and have had nice time since 2014 ....
I20 rules!
On your ass bitch
I have the older one in 1.2 petrol and can get up to 60mpg on long journeys and always above 50
Kate Myers I’ve i20 ACTIVE , idk if u ever see that . It comes above asta variant .
Mine too, a great car with lots of equipment for the money
Also I totally agree with you on the turbo engine. I tried the cheaper 1.25 engine at the dealer and I found it slow. The 1.0 turbo engine is good
Looks like I found my first car 😍
really this shit doesn't even have air con
@@amirahmad2099 it does
I’ve had the i20 active for 2 years now.
Pros:
Well built
1.0 t-gdi has good performance
The parts you touch feel luxury.
Cruise control is on the right side of steering wheel.
Cons:
No infotainment on pretty much all models.
Engine only gets about 70% of claimed economy.
A lot of grey plastic.
Cheap seats.
Non existent suspension.
Wow! The car looks amazing!
This car does not provide in Singapore.
Pretty good car isn't it.
its loads better than overpriced and under equipped vw polo
Grunf ! couldnt say it any better. I own one of the older models, and I have to say i dont feel ripped off. The price was ultra cheap for a new car and its still driving like a tank after 6 years with 104.000km with no repairs.
There isnt much difference in price nowadays....Hyundai has developed to an Exploitatlion Company
Why didn’t you pick the model with the projector headlamps? It looks so amazing
I cracked up when you put the box "out of its misery".
In the Indian version we get air conditioning on even the entry level model, and the infotainment system does support Apple and Google car play
You know they reallllly searched for something good to say about this car when you get a 'safety reflector' on a door trim as a 'good point'.
Every facelift costs you 1000 euro more at least
My BMW one series didn't come with door reflectors or cup holders for that matter. So much for a premium brand 🤔😉
Have the 2016 SE 1l turbo, Annoying things - drivers seat appalling, mine has broken the inside rear seat adjuster in warranty, dealer was not interested have to live with a wobbly seat. Seat belt not height adjustable. Those nice indicators in the wing mirrors cost £110 plus VAT each. The rear parcel shelf support broke on a return from Poole. Fuel consumption is 29mpg to 34mpg on motorway. Speedo under reads by 3.5 @ 30mph, 4 @40mph. Very vocal engine (look at me I do 99bhp and sound like a misfiring 205gti). Torque is ok from stop. But if you follow the gear suggestion you will find that 24 in 2nd is far quicker than 24 in 3rd, steep hills are shite, but there is a hill hold if you run out of power and need to do an up hill 4500 rpm start.
Strange noises, on braking there is a clonking sound - OSR, oddly only heard by me and everyone else, but not the dealer. And other uneven roads the NSR spring sounds like it has broken, thankfully both these noises are not MOT Fails, just like the drivers seat that wobbles inside rear on any hieght setting except top, when I can't get my knees under the steering wheel - which isn't friendly to the larger framed person. The original tyres had band lines in them and were cracking after 2 years, might be a result of being stored in full sun at the Turkey plant.
Dealer support, well I am on dealer number 2, the original failed to pick car up for service 3 and have been to the next nearest dealer who wanted to charge me to inspect the seat under warrranty - which clearly wobbles, prices are high and with £110 for a wing mirror indicator scratch, spotted on this MOT but not the previous, along with a 1mm crack in the outer letter of the front number plate, they are desperate for work, referring 2 items that have passed during all MOT's to date.
Keep or Go - its going. Sorry Hyundai, but when your dealer chooses to charge to look at a clear warranty repair, and finds the most smallest crack on indicator and numberplate to be repaired under the MOT, then you have lost me as a customer.
Is it really the 2018 i20??? I cant spot any difference between this and 2017 i20
the front grill is different
It's not for india
Mahesh Bhoir spy shots of the indian variant didn't looked much different from the current model
Stark Vds Maine 2 mahine pehle i20 lia hai or interior me or exterior koi change nahi dikh raha mujhe
Stark Vds i know that but mai iss video ki baat kar ra hu...2018 model likha hai...or 2018 model bhi zada different lag nahi raha mujhe spy shots se
I own i20 in india they offer 6 airbags, DRL and Projector Headlight with Auto Light, Also Center Arm Rest is available from Base model, It has auto a/c with rear a/c vents. They sell better feature loaded car in india but in india we dont have 1L turbo
Good unbiased review giving credit when credit is due nice car and great value for money.
I tought you had a OnePlus 5... so why when talking about the speaker's you're showing us an HTC? Is it because the OnePlus (which is also what I have) only has ONE speaker? =))
I really like Hyundai lately, they're really putting a lot of effort into making their cars.
I think though, that this car should, if not must, have a better fuel economy
I have a 1.2 84 hp and it does over 55 mpg
Pls make video of 2020 i20
This isn't a 2018 model, it's a 2017ish
Nice review, nice little car. First thing I'd do is change every bulb I could to LED. And wow, I just can't wrap my head around the tiny engine trend, turbo or not.
I20 is a great car. My dad has a third one going. 1st was 1.4, 2nd this featured model and now hi has a MY19 version. The newest has an MPG of 55 and very sufficient power for every day use. Only thing I would get as an extra is the vision package, as we live here in the dark, Finland. The stock H4 is rubbish, yesterday fitted a couple of auxiliary high beams on dad's car. The difference is like night and day! The 2nd car had better light output with projector headlamps (which are extra in the new one). Also fitted HB3 HID xenon kit in those. Visibility was awsome, and beam pattern was very sharp.
How well did the 1.4 perform
I´m watching out for it, because it is the least on the defect list of the German TÜV (technichal inspection agency) for small cars, which means, it has the least defects.
Should be titled: Hyundai i20 2018 in-depth review | Mat "Dorbin" Watson Reviews
Here in Brazil, Hyundai launched HB20 instead of the i20. In terms of design, the HB20 is looks better than the i20. But, in terms of safety, the i20 (as well as all cars in UK and Europe) is waaaay better than the HB20! Anyway, another great review of Carwow!!!
Hello from India ! The funny thing is this car is one of the major selling cars of our country , and it looks much better with led drls , plus ur base model price is our top model price 😀
Wooo mat!!! Go easy with those guns
Mohammed Azar hot
It used to fall in premium hatchback in india but in 2020 it is just like normal car we are eagerly waiting for N line of hyundai now
My future baby 😍😍😍
You know you can trust people who own OnePlus phone 👌🏼🤘🏼
Nuhan Hidayat Someone who actually knows phones, finally.
Awkward when he shows his phone as a HTC, guess you don't trust Matt then ;)
Chris C he does own OnePlus if you watch his other review videos :D
Maybe he is a two phone kind of guy lol
Subi_fan says a guy who spent $1000 for an emoji machine
even 1.2 great for higher speeds. an age ago my dad my Citroen zara 1.4 it had 70bhp it even achieved 125mph on slight down hill with 5 people in car, the only advice do not try jump it as springs back like bouncy ball. the 1.2 i20 has more power and lots more torque compared to 1.4 french car and that did 30k miles a year for 3 years before going to seat diesel. ive got first gen i20 1.2 ive never felt it struggles at higher speeds, easy go over limits far to easy, change in to 2nd early foot to floor that soon get you to 50, one more change if hill 3rd of not straight to 4th or 5th you soon at 70 can can easy sit at 70 revs not that high, ive been in Spanish import right hand drive leon 6 speed 130tdi and at cruising motorway speeds 80 mph old days it was at just about 4k it so high i said to my dad its got 6 gears change up he said he in top gear he did not get tht car would cost a lot for fuel he got leon 5 speed same 130tdi revs were just less half at 80mph. when you look at other cars the i20 1.2 really is not so bad pretty good at motorway speeds. i feel the 1.2 is better option, as the 1.0 it getting worked hard i feel not a long life. funny thing my gen 1 i20 been so good im looking at this age i20 with the updated 1.2 not fussed at all about not having big tv, it has cruise control that the only thing i want extra next car, less to go wrong, but only issue we have tramps in this country its so hard to find one without stained seats and grubby controls, id dread to know how there home is dirt **** as it is true a dirty car most time means they live like tramp at home too so hopefully ones im looking at do not sell as only few right color and clean inside and no stained seats, only other good ones are brown car and brown dash a james may spec what are sure different but living with it for long time unsure about the james may style brown. ive live with engine its reliable and affordable to maintain one weak point 100-120k miles chain can stretch or tensioners can go but that not end world to fix before it goes, £150-£280 for kit and 4-6 hours to fit and my local garage good rate so about £600 prob tad less whats not bad and clutch with kit fitted £500 those two things sorted that another 100k miles it cheap ish motoring. only thing don't like tire pressure monitoring just a thing to fail but other things looks a button to turn off so all good
Hopefully they’re better made now. My 2013 model is an absolute lemon.
What would be the best option? Hyundai i20 1.0 TGDI or Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI?
If you're going for Price alone. Go for the i20. It's also technically more reliable according to consumer surveys. Quality and ride will be better with the Polo however.
That said. If you want a cheaper car with Polo guts, I'd consider the SEAT Ibiza as well. Great car for the budget!
I love one plus! Especially the 5T
Are there any cars that Matt said you should go ahead and buy it
Mostly I have seen him shortlist them
comparison between i20, baleno and polo would be better :)
Rishabh Furtado baleno is shit
Baleno is a better car than i20 in every sense of the word. Where i20 is only sporty, Baleno is classy and sporty at the same time. In India, Baleno sells more than the i20.
Yeah! Would be nice to see how the all new Polo fairs against the i20 and Baleno
Baleno is an unsafe tin car.
Imperial791 Exactly an an Indian even I am ashamed that a garbage like Baleno sells so well in India. Here people mainly buy it for mileage and other buyers have heard mentality.
I own this car the biggest problem i have with Hyundai and Kia is that the Gearbox usually struggles going into reverse and 1st gear and the economy is not really great i drive around town and i only get 30.3 MPG plus they are quite slow which is not very good in this day and age. They really need to get rid of these dated gearboxes and engines.
Can do a video on the new i20 2020
Matt audio was a bit up and down in this video. Please get your editing team to have a look and may be not repeat that next time. Thanks :)
The 6th annoying point is that pimple stuck to the back for the reversing camera, could they not have integrated that somewhere?
You voice crack every time you tAlk about the infotainment system
Ultra Jaff 😂😂😂
Awesome review man!!!!
I love Hyundai i20 2015
Hey Matt, when are you going to review the new Duster?
This particular vehicle was first registered on the 1st of September 2016, sixteen months ago.
2018 model ?
Mat can you please make a review of the new 2017 facelifted Alfa Romeo guilietta which has improved so much than the old one that you have reviewed for carbuyer.. I’m in the market to buy myself(26 years old) a car and I can’t decide which is better opel astra or Alfa giulietta.. my mind says astra but my heart goes with the beautiful giulietta(exterior and interior).. you ve made a review for astra, but I would like to see a “in-depth review” for giulietta from you and I think that no one reviewed the new one so this would help many who are after alfa as an alternative..
Why is this video uploaded in January, when it clearly was reviewed at summer time?
Has this something to do with some special release date - embargo?
As much as I'm concerned this car isn't exactly new, isn't it?
Tea Kay Some say Mat does all the reviews in the summer because he hibernates in the forest during winter
Tea Kay There is a lot of editing involved in these videos. And if your filming a few cars a week, there would soon be a backlog of editing needing done.
This dude hit hard in gym that triceps 1:19 💪👌

Very impressive great review
This is a great reliable car.
Agree, i´v owned a 2018 1.2L i20 since early 2019 and after 5 years of owner ship and 3 trips across Europe it is still going strong and it has been absolutely faultless, the only thing i have had to change (apart from regular yearly maintenance) were the rear brake pads. Try that with a 6 year old VW or Ford....
Hey - there's a new i20 out now - any chance of a review please?
Actually I prefer this model to the new facelift model
The back of the facelift version does not look as good
Hello Sir
Irrespective of segment,Which car has better ride comfort, safety feature, better engine ,better automatic transmission Maintenance ,mileage, better build quality ,better design and overall winner--CRETA SX 1.5 IVT or the City VX CVT
Engine 1.5L GDI 90 HP 240 NM TORQUE
It's so hilarious and cute the way the UK pronounce Hyundai... It's like they couldn't possibly get the pronunciation of Hyundai more wrong if they tried 🤣😊

@happy gekko because Hyun isn't a natural pronunciation and nobody knows how to read hangul lol
I just got a i20 as rental for one week and I was about to cry. After 60 mph, you cant hear your passenger because of the windnoise and rolling noise from the tires, suspensions were crap if you listen carefully you can even hear the voices of lane strips when you pass over them, I can't remember if it was a 1.0 or 1.2 or 1.4 but it never wanted to accelerate. İn a conclusion, once, I drove a dacia lodgy and it was way better at everything. I come here to see younshitting everywhere because of your disappointment but I got dissapointed.
Yes if you want noisy discotheque buy this hell car i20
