Hyundai Elite i20 | First Drive Video Review | Autocar India

[@vjthshetty]

It’s 2024, but elite i20 is still the best hatchback car ❤ Hyundai please bring back the OG look

[@Inc752]

This is going to be my first car!

[@kaalyaman]

this is my first car, booked i20 asta petrol after lot of comparisons..

[@AntuNeelesh]

Bought one :) i20 Astra petrol version....lovely car for armature motorists like me ;)

[@nitinkate3013]

at what price did you buy it?

[@AntuNeelesh]

nitin kate I bought it at 8.4 lakhs in Pune

[@TheKarstrasse]

on road? I don't think so. My sportz optional goes around 8. I was told Asta is 9. Or maybe because it's Mumbai

[@KushGames]

Hyundai is improving thier styling and features as time goes by, this car looks like the next gen hatchback with decent enough "usable" features. I am from mumbai, and not having a cruise control option doesn't bother me ( due to our unpredictable traffic conditions ) this car seems to be good in looks and fuel efficiency as well. And the DRL feature suits luxurious cars such as the mercs audis and bmws to be honest. They've also given good legroom space for passengers on the back seat. Thanks renuka for giving an early and 1st review for the elite i20. Good job as usual.

[@arjun3325]

Still my favourite model... Iam having 2016 elite asta , a wonderful car in itz segment... I dont like new i20 due to its looks..

[@audaciousnj]

Why don't you mention the top speeds and fuel economy on road in your reviews?

[@karanpreetsingh4147]

was eagerly w8ing for your review... thanks a lot.. love this car.. :D

[@goeltushar23]

I am planning to buy i20 elite petrol Asta model. But had few doubts. 1. Read in somebody's review that even the top model of i20 elite (asta) does not show information like car mileage and kms to run in fuel.? 2. No automatic car locking as the car achieves speed? Not that these 2 features will make a huge difference, but all the cars in the same segment like swift and even below its segment like celerio have both the above 2. It would be really helpful if somebody clarifies my doubts?

[@arundoctor]

+Tushar Goel Yes it doesnt have them.not a big problem for me.

[@goodshepherdkurianoor5007]

k

[@aashishgehlot7]

Looks like my home town jodhpur...great review....waiting eagerly for you to give us the comparison b/w vw new polo 1.5 tdi, punto evo, and elite i20 crdi

[@navdeepsingh-vy7kf]

Seriously Awesome review. Renuka mam Waiting for hatch comparison For vw polo tdi, i20 elite, fiat punto evo...

[@gautamjayakishan9614]

navdeep singh and swift

[@smitamohapatra8536]

great efforts by Hyundai decided to go with i20 asta (o) petrol

[@joeanto86]

Interior cabin quality & instrument cluster is best in class . No wonder that Audi team was involved in the design of the European hatch model. Overall look is premium inside Engine is nice and powerful Milage as expected a bit less due to the power of engine Seems to be value for the price of the car

[@pavanshirguppi5261]

Hi AutoCar India, I am planning to buy a car with in couple of months. driving is weekend trips and budget can reach with in 7-8lk on road. Could you suggest a nice cat for my options .. i am unable to shortlist ... better mileage/less maintenance cost should be considered. Thanks in advance. pls reply.

[@sethishrey]

Booked stardust coloured Asta CRDI!

[@sambasiva442]

Bro in I20 model which is the best. Petrol or Diesel overall comparisions

[@shoryajain05]

just booked.. Extremely excited about it... A beautiful car for non average lovers...

[@adarshdas2682]

good review and expecting comparison between elite i20 vs 2014polo and 2014 punto

[@BABA-GOMI]

Thanks. been a fan of your channel for a long time now.

[@geetapant5168]

elite i20 sportz variant or new grand i10 asta(o) variant?...which one to buy! please reply sir #autocar

[@zaid_wani]

This car made history

[@AnubhavSanganeria]

like always!.. the best car review at de earliest!

[@MrRockerstunt]

+Autocar India, please clarify my doubts: 1) My height is almost 6 feet & if I am on the back seats, will my head touch to the roof? 2) How accurate is the navigation system?

[@Achyuthmandya]

Yes.. Even my height is 5"11.You'll have more than enough head room and legroom remaining.. after getting seated.

[@Achyuthmandya]

And Navigation system works good on State and National highways. It really fails if you are near to sea.

[@chandrashekhard8787]

finally some good adjust,emts !!!!!!!!thanku Renu maam for the wonderful review!!!!!

[@pranshubangar1228]

is elite i20 worth buying in 2017? if not than which car would u suggest in range of 7-8lakhs

[@sivaramapandianbtech]

Pranshu Bangar I am also thinking the same.

[@sivaramapandianbtech]

how about Ford figo

[@pranshubangar1228]

i bought i20 sportz on 29 march. after doing lot of research and comparing all the cars, i thought i20 sportz was the best pick

[@pranshubangar1228]

Sivarama Pandian M i am college student so my 1 priority was looks, so ford figo was not even an option in my list. i personally like figo aspire more than figo. and 2 priority is mileage. my list was having maruti suzuki ciaz(petrol, vdioption), wrv(petrol base variant), baleno( delta petrol), ecosport( 1.5 trend), i20( sportz), vitara breeza(ldi option). 1. ciaz was actually a nice car but it was little long for my building parking, so i removed it from the list. 2. wrv was recently launched so their was a long waiting, and also that its 1.5 lakh costlier than i20 with same mileage so i removed it from the list. 3 ecosport . its mileage was less and it lacked features also and if go up in the models then it would be out of budget so it was also removed from the list. 4. brezza. it was having 22 weaks of waiting so removed. 5 now last baleno vs i20. i personally don't like the looks the baleno. its chrome trail in the front bumper make it such a girlish looking car, i mean its trail extend till the headlamps and the projector and whole that lok likes the eye of a girl and its headlamps led ohh god it hate them. i thunk they just wamted to attach the led so they put it their without thinking how ugly the car will look. so i bought i20 sportz and also the sportz had 40k rs cut off because in 2017 model few features were removed which didn't bothered me at all so for me i20 was the best pick. if u would ask 2 then it would be ciaz or breeza depends on your liking

[@pranshubangar1228]

Sivarama Pandian M and if u are looking for a ford figo price budget car, then i would suggest u ignis. i am personally fan of ignis. amd u can also look at tata kite or tigor i don't know what's its name is

[@parthmehta1627]

Bhai Bought i20 elite sportz in Oct 20. Mileage hardly 9 kmpl in city and highway may not b more than 13kmpl, very low mileage. Loan also availed. Please guide what to Do now.

[@CartubeCoIl]

As Always, great review by Autocar India.

[@ROHITBANERJEEMusic]

which is better i20 or brezza?

[@bharathv499]

I Test drove elite i20 asta petrol version..The cons in this car is 1)Even if you adjust seat height to max extent left corners are hardly visible, where as in older i20 left corners visibility is very good. 2) Front side design of this car is not that good compared to old i20. 3)Dashboard is not that stylish as in old i20..old i20's dashboard is the best..!!

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Buy the old version then lol

[@nedunchezhians.p.6341]

Yes, you are right. Black color, Honey comb design Front Grill looks like a big hole in the face of the car when viewing at a distance. Also door opening handle is little big and doesn't match with the door. It would be better if the Car Door Guards are chrome color. But the performance is far better than old i20. (Tested diesel Asta)

[@6996Kishan]

Love your work

[@uiyygggg]

Too much confusion in buying a new car?, Alright here it goes. Looks,Features,Comfort-----Elitei20>Polo>Punto>Swift Mileage,Spare parts,Service, After sales---Swift>Elite>Punto>Polo RoadGrip, Body Balance, Ride Quality, Build Qlty-- Punto>Polo>Swift>Elite Safety,Performance,Refinement---Polo>Punto>Elite>Swift Case closed...

[@MrVaibhav2625]

ELITE IS THE BEST. period

[@sambhunathsurendran6621]

But, if you have the slightest bit of 'good' taste, you'd go for the Italian.

[@jaigoldberg]

sam insomniac If you have a good taste, you'd go for the German, not Italian !

[@sambhunathsurendran6621]

jaigoldberg The German feels archaic and self restricted. It's not bold, in any way. The FIAT, on the other hand.

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Top speed of petrol engine please?

[@dkmcse2008]

If compare grandi10 with elite i20 which one is good to go?I am bit confused between two of this..

[@nedunchezhians.p.6341]

Go for i20 Elite. Smooth ride and very less engine noise than grandi10. Moreover grandi10 is a 3 cylinder car whereas elite has 4 cylinder.

[@deepakuniyal5921]

I think this is best car to buy, will go for sport in petrol 😍

[@MrAgarwal11]

can you help me out...i am keen to buy elite but confused little bit that i should go for diesel aur petrol i want the ride quality and good pick up so please suggest me

[@prabhjeetbabrah]

+Akash Agarwal petrol is best

[@MrAgarwal11]

prabhjeet babrah thank you so mch

[@angad18709]

Intact petrol is a lazy ass when it comes to pick up!

[@guidepost667]

+sahib hora theres just 1 secnd diffrnce in 0-100kmph in diesel and petrol 1 second is not much difffrnce in day to day life .. unless if you want to race in a car like this

[@tinujos8306]

Booked an elite i20 petrol red !

[@pratikpinoakawolverine]

booked blue

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Booked red petrol

[@pratikpinoakawolverine]

[@tinujos8306]

[@musababdullah9539]

Tinu Jos wats the mileage? :)

[@Redhatenthusiast]

I booked my I20 Elite Sports(o) Diesel , I heard that I20 will plan to rolled out I20 with touchscreen Infotainment system, Also i read on the web there schedule date to rolled out new I20 on 8 July 2015, I also contacted my dealer for the same and he's don't have information about it. I am confused should i wait for it or not....

[@TMP_19]

Ashish Sood I booked on 31st. The dealers are creeps never give out information about the upcoming changes. Will hamper their sales. I guess will have to settle for the Current Asta Model. Excited none the less

[@Redhatenthusiast]

Thanks for your reply Tausif Patel​ I got my car last week, and i also it's coming on their top variant.

[@TMP_19]

Ashish Sood Thankfully I booked and they released the AVN Version the next day so I re booked it to Asta Option which has a AVN.

[@Redhatenthusiast]

Tausif Patel​Congrats 

[@BABA-GOMI]

Accurate and lively video as always.

[@adityapralhadrathod2652]

Please make a video comparing the Elite i20 and the Baleno That would really be very very helpful for buyers in this segment. i am not really very concerned for the looks. I am looking for a petrol car with an exciting engine performance with good ride quality especially on highways.

[@lakshmikantatripathy8189]

ADITYA PRALHAD RATHOD

[@srivigneshthangathambi3240]

ADITYA PRALHAD RATHOD sab if u want petrol pls go for baleno...cos im owning an elite petrol nd its horrible

[@anirudh1125]

Does the engine noise from the diesel motor filter through???

[@repeatrepeatrepeat]

Hyundai diesels are really silent. I can't even hear my fluidic verna crdi at cruising speeds.

[@abhinavsinghkant341]

I have booked elite magna petrol Is it gonna worth Or diesel Wud b ? My running of car is very less

[@siddharthsharma1711]

[@siddharthsharma1711]

Abhinav Kant u didnt get my answer i replied u on the context of ur question i20 petrol doesnt have gud pick up its actual mileage is not so good as compared to claimed mileage which is 18.6 handling and suspension is not so gud as compared to competition if u wnt above mentioned things thn u shld purchase swift petrol go and take test drive but but but if u want best space best feature best look best quality material best cabin feeling dnt thnk abt oder car go for elite

[@PravinPatil41]

Renuka kirpalani

[@goswamiiabhishek]

I would have bought fiat Punto diesel 90 hp Better fun to drive n 2 lack cheaper with same kinda equipment list Though good looks but Punto is an Italian Charm it's stunning in terms of looks With a fluent design n fun to drive But bad in city traffic due to short gearing

[@azharnaveed6993]

Guys! Do red color of the elite i20 fade. Bcz i hav seen may swift's with faded red color.

[@geek66]

we prefer smaller glass areas. better privacy.. u need big glasses that tata indica cab like feeling

[@ns100ful]

waiting for automatic model

[@cash362]

Can we keep wheel chair in i20 boot

[@drsoumyadeep]

Is it still underpowered like the older i20

[@MrVaibhav2625]

No

[@drsoumyadeep]

well i test drove the car and the bottom end power still seems very inadequate.

[@siddharthsharma1711]

u r right if driving is ur passion go for swift if u want car for ur faimly go for elite

[@tilakmuthanna6829]

[@yashpratap1806]

[@atheethdevaraja]

i am exicted i booked a new 120 elite red petrol

[@sureshreddy0001]

Good Review:)

[@VeeruJai]

Single drawback is no navigation and it's a great car

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Google maps FTW

[@TharunPramod]

Engine is a disaster (petrol),does'n pull in second gear on straight road.And with diesel you really need to wait a long time for turbo to wake up,no driving pleasure just a sporty looking car.

[@MrVaibhav2625]

The older version had such probs... Not the elite

[@siddharthsharma1711]

i agree

[@jatinbatra677]

awesome car i20 elite

[@RayiesAhmad]

is..petrol..variant..asta..worth..the..money

[@nitinkate3013]

Ok but what is the cost of asta petrol varient?

[@SalveMonesvol]

2:54 Somebody explain, please.

[@SalveMonesvol]

***** That is terrible in case of theft.

[@pskarthik2003]

+SalveMonesvol : this is only when the doors are closing...Yes I agree though with your comment...At times, it can be annoying

[@DanyPrasadTK]

no rain sensing viper, 6 airbag to 2, no day time running light? rear viper on high end model :(

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Rain sensing wipers r dere -.-

[@adityapradeep1962]

Better than the polo...

[@MrVaibhav2625]

True that

[@Felzethronics]

maybe 2002 :D

[@uiyygggg]

Polo's looks are classy and typical European type.. Elite i20 looks more sporty and aggressive.. So POLO PUNTO and Elite i20 are currently best looking hatches.. But remember i20 is nowhere near to the sheer performance and drivability of the German motor..

[@adityapradeep1962]

Oh no! Ajith Nayak.... We actually went for a test drive for both the cars and the drive quality of the polo is bad!!(petrol)...but the i20...Sheer driving pleasure

[@adityapradeep1962]

I must admit that the polo's built quality is any day better!

[@samgeorgebush9216]

Sunroof, DRL's, Xenon lights ???

[@sachinnambiar1390]

It doesn't make sense when safety is compromised . Indian govt should make airbags mandatory and rest all is secondary !!!.It's not worth the deal !!!! Rather I would prefer a German or Japanese manufacturer !!!!!

[@sivavikram6029]

i am going with fiat punto evo multijet

[@MrVaibhav2625]

I feel sorry for you :)

[@ankittkaul3973]

it felt underpowered with ac on

[@MDTHANSEEM]

Awesome :)

[@hemantagogoi1424]

New Hyundai sportz asta 1.2 2020

[@amoghpatwardhan8590]

6:45 Pretentious Movie Review :-D

[@shivanandnoola]

no 4 disc brake even in top end variant no cruse control

[@MrVaibhav2625]

No hatchback has such features :)

[@arnavgoel1818]

Jazz petrol best best space and realible brand awesome rear look

[@ashishdhakal6630]

I am confused between i20 asta and baleno.

[@TheKarstrasse]

i20 anytime. Or Jazz at max.

[@AmosMaimon1]

A good overview Professional really

[@rahulpalshikar9404]

ride quality not good as compare swift

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Elite is MUCH BETTER

[@siddharthsharma1711]

Attitude is everything plz go and test drive both petrol car i promise u vl chng ur review. i took test drive of petrol horible swift is 10 times better

[@ravneetgill6460]

no, elite i20 is much better than swift

[@rishikausshik00]

Looks terrific?/ You can't conclude that for yourself! I find the front to be weird and dull! The current i20 looks much better than this CD slot like grille. Disappointed by Hyundai! The rear bumper also doesn't suit the overall rear design. Cabin looks like a mix of some BMWs and the Grand i10. Also too much beige on dash-top. Equipment levels seems to be good, but for 9.5 lacs on road, there are lots of other, more practical bigger cars.

[@aashishgehlot7]

Totally agree with you

[@MrVaibhav2625]

It looks AWESOME .... Best hatchback in the country :)

[@rishikausshik00]

Attitude is everything Not for everyone! and you can't claim this as the"Best hatchback"!! Costliest in it's segment.

[@shivajeeee]

In pictures and in videos it didn't look that good to me. But when I saw it in a showroom I was quite impressed by its looks. IMO it looks best in its class. And Polo comes as close second.

[@rishikausshik00]

It looks like a blown up grand i10 to me with a bit more equipment and an bad face surgery. The grand is much more gorgeous. Hyundai has spoilt it.

[@stephenkoh6854]

The design of the front copied VW polo, and the side copied citroen What's hyundai trying to do??

[@MrVaibhav2625]

Are you mad or are you blind?
