Extensive Video Review compared to many I've seen on other sites. 'More of the car in question than the host' which I always like on Car Blog India reviews. This sets you apart as others just yap forever and do not show the car in the review as much as your videos do. Back to the Car: Simply Superb!
Rohit Bhatia Thank You for the kind words!
nice review kurana ..... Awesom !!!
Great Sir ji, very well compiled video with details on every topic. Thanx
Plz suggest between hyundai Elite i20 Asta Crdi and New volkswagen polo highline Diesel, knowing which one is having better performance , after sales service , pick up, comfort and look, and which one has better driving.
please put details about ground clearance and start and stop pushbutton feature
Hey can u please tell me what is the milege diesel asta can give in city as well as on highway(Not ARAI)
Thank you
Plz suggest between elite i20 asta diesel and volkswagen polo highline diesel considering performance , mileage , service
Very well reviewed, I'd like to know more about the Petrol variant. I have heard that the earlier version was underpowered, is this the same as it was?
plzz suggst me between polo highline petrol vs elite i20 asta petrol..considering milage,cost of ownership..??
Thank u for ur on road review.... I was confused btwn this car and 1.6. Lt polo gt tdi for the fact that the polo offers a better ride and handling experience when compared to the outgoing i20. U have cleared my mind to go for i20 elite now inspite of the gt tdi being more powerful engine but 1.4 lt engine is also not less in terms of power and torque delivery with i20 being just 2.2 sec short of gt tdi from 0-100 kph :-) And also mainly coz they have improved its suspension and steering handling now in the elite, i'll choose it. Thanks again.
difference would be there but 2.2 seconds is too big a difference. I might be wrong out here, if you could let me know the source of this information.
With superly boosted 1.6lt deisel engine gt tdi commutes 0-100kmpl in 0-10 secs whras i20's modest 1.4 lt crdi engine requires 0-12.5 secs to touch the 100kmpl mark. GT is surely a driver enthusiast car but i20 elite, after its modifications in suspension,steering control and back seat space, offers a decent drive for passengers as well.
Should i go for the Elitei20 or the Xcent.Iam very confused.Please give me a reply as soon as possible
Which one would make a better city car, honda amaze petrol or elite i20 petrol?
Hi, I am planning to buy elite i20 Petrol Asta. I would like to know about the performance, mileage and Safety...? and it's going to be my first Car..
Kindly advice...
So many people have asked your comparison on Polo and i20 elite (petrol). It is obvious Polo has way better drive experience. But, despite all that. For a family car, which one would you suggest?
In polo 5 adults cant be comfortable for long drives (100+ km) but 4 adults + 15yr old kid can go easily..If u want better ride quality and more aggressive power then go for Polo.. If u need more features u can choose i20
I am planning to buy a petrol car with a decent fuel economy, good space (comfortable) and 'least maintenance'. Which one would be the best between i20, polo, punto and dzire?
Five most important things to look for in a car for Indian driving conditions:
1) ABS for safety
2) High ground clearance (at least 165 mm) to clear speed bumps
3) Rear parking sensors
4) Automatic gears (AMT/CVT) for effortless and stress-free driving
5) Automatic A/C for convenience and comfort
Hello
Suggest me i20 elite or swift in diesel???
Hi Rohit, thanks for the excellent review. I am planning to buy elite i20 petrol sportz variant. I have question about steering. I red many review about older i20 regarding its numb/dead steering and steering feedback issue. Does the new elite i20 still has this drawback or has it been rectified?
Hello Kaushal Chhaya.
Hyundai has worked upon the dynamics of the car to improve the ride-and-handling of the i20. The steering wheel has improved in the sense that it weighs up appropriately according to the speed. There is not much that you can expect in terms of 'feel' as it is an electric-power-assist-unit. It is a vast improvement over the unit in the previous model though.
Hope this helped.
Hi I'm confused between new vw polo and i20 elite. Can u suggest me with overall rating (servicing, handling, safety, performance and most important price)
janakiram agnur
Will go about this in order,
1) Servicing Cost: i20
2) Handling : Polo
3) Safety : Polo
4) Performance (petrol) : i20
5) Performance (diesel) : Polo
6) Value for money:
6) a) Polo Trendline vs. i20 Era : Polo
6) b) Polo Comfortline vs. i20 Magna : If features are priority, the i20. If safety is a priority, the Polo.
6) c) Polo Highline vs. i20 Sportz : i20
6) d) i20 Sportz vs. i20 Sportz (O) : Depends on whether you can live with or without alloy wheels and smart entry-and-go system.
6) e) i20 Sportz vs. i20 Asta : i20 Asta, price increase seems reasonable. Price after taxes may make a bit too expensive though.
Hope this helped.
What about the pick up?? Has tht improved? It was horrible in the earlier i 20. Talking about the asta model
***** The diesel engine is certainly better in the new i20. Petrol is not that good, just like the previous model.
Hope this helped.
Thnxs a lot
sports varaintof i20 is having less mileage than the era and magna models, though all three have 14 inch tyres. is itthe increase in weight that has led to decrease in mileage or..
ant tg These factors could be affecting the efficiency on the Sportz variant: The increased weight because of the added equipment, the increased load on the battery and other components because of the added equipment.
Encourage others to pitch in with their thoughts.
how is the steering ?i mean does it weigh up on high speeds ? per say like when you are on 120+???
sandeep reddy The steering on the Hyundai i20 is much better than the previous generation car.
It does weigh up nicely as the speeds increase, we went over 150 KMPH and did not find any problems with the steering feel.Hope this helped.
Im planning to buy the petrol variant ... Can u tell me its top speed in the 4th gear? If possible
Attitude is everything Sorry, we can not give you a precise figure. We did go up to 90 KMPH in the 2nd gear, we can safely say that the i20 may go up to 140-150 KMPH in the 4th gear.
Why do you ask?
Thanks.. My friends are like the petrol varient is slow and has a very bad pickup ... And does not deliver a good milage... So i ws concerned ! But 140-150 kmph is more than enough for me :)
Attitude is everything The petrol variant of the i20 does feel lethargic after you drive the diesel, that is true.
Can you please suggest me which car out of the two should I go for?? Elite i20 D Magna or Zest XM. There is a diff of 40-45K though but can manage that. I drive 75km a day and about 40 on weekends. I needs FE, features and comfort as priority(in order). I loved zest's high sitting position but I lack trust on Tata and a friend also warned as he is a Manza user. Kindly advice.
kunal arora Based on your priorities, the Tata Zest seems to be the better choice. Tata is trying to improve its after-sales service experience, we suggest you visit your nearest showroom and service centre(s) before taking a decision.
Hope this helped.
Thank you for the reply! Appreciate!
Car Blog India Do all dealers provide tyres from the same manufaturer? Can I as the consumer expect Bridgestone Tyres as shown in the review or that depends on the dealer? Also do these tyres vary from dealership to dealership or can I ask for Bridgestone Tyres than the regular Apollo ones that I've seen some dealers in Mumbai provide as "Standard,Factory Fitted"
Rohit Bhatia The car from the manufacturer comes as a package which includes the tyres, tyres from the same company are used. Changes may be made (in batches), but these are rare.
The car we tested were production models, equipment shown here including the tyres are standard.
Most dealers will be happy to offer you an exchange offer when you change the tyres to your preferred brand. All the stock cars are shod with tyres which they were fitted with at the factory and they do not change from dealership to dealership.
Hope this helped.
Fantastic, exactly what I was looking for. I'll contact the dealers with confidence then
hello can you please tell me, how is the stability on highways? i have touched 150 on my polo and it was very solid. does i20 wobble after 140 kmph?
zamborghini green The new Hyundai i20 has vastly improved dynamic as compared to the previous model. We were able to go up to 160 KMPH and found it to be acceptably stable. The Polo is much better at high speeds though.Hope this helped.
Can you please tell that is it better than its predecessor in terms of space?
Ritvik Agarwal the new Hyundai i20 is certainly better in terms of interior cabin space than its predecessor because of the increased wheelbase. The luggage space has been compromised for this.
Hope this helped.
are the daytime running lights removed in this version?
Simanta Mukherjee yes, they have been removed.
Car Blog India
well, that's sad!
If compare grandi10 with elite i20 which one is good to go?I am bit confused between two of this..
There is nothing to be confused...I have been doing a lot of research...and finally bought the elite I 20... And I am loving it ...
deepak mohapatra What are your priorities. This will help us answer your query better. Also have you test driven both the cars?
hello can you please tell me ,, i am stuck at Polo and elite i20. which one should I go for?
Arjun Chhetri What are your priorities?
I am confused between the Petrol and diesel variants...can you help me pick one?!
Petrol vehicles are going to be running u cheaper in the days to come...
I have just bought a petrol and the mileage is good
Don Mustafa Do let us know your priorities so that we can answer your question better
is there any difference in ground clearance of i20 having 14 inch and 16 inch rims.
ant tg I am not really sure. Sound like there should be, but still i would like to check with someone from engineering team of Hyundai to answer that.
Car Blog India it is really weird on part of hyundai thgt they have missed out on these details on the official site of i20..
- ground clearance
- weight of car
- turning radius
ant tg shitoo
ant tg That's right. Hyundai have either skipped or as I've noticed, the performance, wheels and other section of the webpage simply fails to load or has dead clicks...Waiting to put it in the near future maybe?
ant tg The i20 brochure mentions only one figure under the ground clearance column, of 170-mm. Seems like the ground clearance does not differ from variant to variant.Hope this helped.
may you please let us know the city mileage for magna i20 petrol with ac on
Deepak Aggarwal On our drive, we were managing about 11 KMPL. We will have to drive the car for a longer peroid to answer your question better.
i recently have testdriven the elite i20 and am confused between zest and elite i20 the spcae inside the zest is more plz suggest me which car to buy as i have a family of 5?????
mayur panth The Tata Zest is indeed more spacious than the Hyundai i20. If interior space is a priority, you can go for the Zest.If you want a detailed opinion on both cars, do reply with the factors/characteristics/features you are looking for in these cars.
today I tried the zest petrol and must say its more fun to drive than the i20 the steering gives a good feedback which the i20 doesn't hats off for tata for this cas I am going for the zest thanks once again carblogindia
mayur panth Happy to help!
Do let us know your buying and ownership experience of the Zest. Drive safe!
Definitely I will let u know thanks
Is the petrol elite i20 fairly better than the amaze petrol.. that can change my mind from compact sedan to the premium hatchback????
Lakshya Tayal What are the features/equipment/characteristics you are looking at in the car? This will help us answer your query better.
Car Blog India Mostly we travel 3 in a car.... but not more than 15 km a day on an average..... i drive in cities more....
actualy its just a want, not a need of a sedan........ but after all a sedan has an advantage over a hatchback... but i like the boot space in the elite i20..... i need safety, mileage,some of the features like ABS,and bit of looks and interiors.... and ofc engine performance....i drive about 60-70 kmph in cities.... 80-90 on highways... and i think thats not very fast.... my families luggage is 3 siutcases, not more than that.... hope thats enough for the choice...
Lakshya Tayal Looks like the Hyundai i20 would be the better choice for you overall. But if you need more luggage space, go for the Amaze or the Xcent. Do also have a look at the Zest.
Hope this helped.
Car Blog India thnxxx i've booked hyundai i20.... i dont like tata.. so zest is not a choice for me.... u helped a lot..... :)
Hi I want to buy a good looking car with excellent pick up Having good after sales service and mileage too, I have chosen Elite i20 and tata Zest which one you suggest
Rajesh Jain Looks are subjective, we cannot help you there.
In terms of acceleration, the Diesel i20 is better if you take the diesel variants into consideration. In terms of petrol, the Zest is better.
In terms of after sales service, Hyundai has a better reputation.
Mileage: Diesel, the Zest delivers more. Petrol, the i20 delivers more.
Looks like the Hyundai i20 is a better overall choice for you if you choose to buy a diesel powered car. Go for the Zest if you want a petrol powered car.
Hope this helped.
Thanks
can u please tell me tht mileage o elite 120 in city with ac on
Prudhvi Reddy The ARAI figure is around 18.5 KMPL. The worst that you can get in the city is around 11-12 KMPL.
We have not done a long-term review, so we cannot give a better answer as of now. Will get back to you after we do a comprehensive review.
Hope this helped.
Ok thank u
hi wats the bhp on the diesel ?
JAIDEEP SINGH SACHDEV 89 BHP @ 4200 RPM, 230 Nm @1500-2500 RPM. 20.14 KMPL
Hope this helped
Car Blog India
thanks for the info
I am planning to buy a car, My budget is : 5 - 7 L. I live in city and I have family of 4 person. I usually go for drives once in a month. My priority will be safety, mileage and look. Please help me to get nice car in this.
Gaurav The budget you quoted is for on-road price or ex-showroom price?
i wood like to change my Toyota etos GD to Hyundai elite i20 whats u r opinion
Anees Ma If you don't mind losing more than half of the luggage space provided by the Etios sedan, go for it.
u look and sound like kapil sharma
The petrol variant of the Elite i20 feels lethargic...it takes a long time to reach 100 km/hr speed..thats so boring.
