Moved from Swift Sport to one of these and it is fantastic. Handling is as good as the review suggests and I can happily use it daily, I am used to sporty cars. It can also return good mpg on a motorway run if you’re sensible,47mpg, much less if you find an appropriate B road where I genuinely think 6 figure priced sports cars would have to be on it to keep in the twisty bits. Quite possibly the most fun car I’ve owned thus far.

@1stFaris It suspension is hard mate so of you are doing country road all the time then no. I've got a Kona N for that. But you do realise that if you want a new one you will be waiting a couple of years.The books are closed in Australia so that they can catch up with production.

Now that the French are gone (Clio RS and 208 GTI Peugeot Sport) the i20 N is the best hatchback hands down.. I'm a big hot hatch fan, and after trying out this car I fell in love once again for the pocket rockets. Sadly this is a shrinking market, but it's nice to see that Hyundai is bringing what the real car obsessed people want ;) Great review :-) Currently waiting for mine.

It's the only hatch available under 25k now the Fiesta is gone - so wins by default. You then see a GR Yaris pull up alongside and wish you'd gone purchased the ultimate hot hatch. GR IS KING
@CarObsession Жыл бұрын
Thing is, the GR is is a different league, and the price reflects that. I think it's kinda unfair to compare the i20N to th GR Yaris as the Yaris is more money and more performance. They're both cracking cars, but the GR Yaris is on a whole other level.
@relentlesspursuit6894 Жыл бұрын
@Car Obsession it's certainly many levels above, but worth bearing in mind, over 95% of buyers buy on finance and the monthly payments are virtually the same on the two cars, making the headline price difference seem null and void. High finance rates and poor depreciation make the I20 quite a costly car to own

@@relentlesspursuit6894 Paid Cash for mine - The GR (if you can get one ) is 25% more expensive in Australia . But have you driven a i20N. Truly admire the GR though. It seem a lot of folks in the UK buy on finance.

@Gary Whelan 97% of ALL new cars in the UK are purchased using finance! The GR was available on 0% finance in which case 100% were financed!

What makes it difficult? I love the ST but the i20N wins out on performance, price, warranty and practicality. OK, the design of the car isn't as attractive but that's subjective. Thanks for watching.
