Hyundai i20 N Line vs Volkswagen Polo GT TSI - Passing the baton | Comparison | Autocar India

[@ShreedharAradhya]

TSI in manual is still a BOMB 💣 Polo is not OLD its LEGEND 🔥

[@eeshachandrapupadhya9160]

Polo is more fun without a doubt, but the Hyundai is more livable in my opinion. But considering its 11 years old and it's still keeping up with the latest ones and beating them at some criterias is just amazing.

[@rageshgr]

Congrats Hyundai on “almost”catching up to a 13 year old car 13 years later ;)

[@ssahoo5500]

And having features of a 40lakhs rs VW at 14lakhs

[@vikram5491]

Rather keep my 6 year old Punto Abarth with 10% of the features any day of the week.

[@kevinkrishnan8810]

Abarath is awesome man .

[@Bhanuprakashmakam0069]

Whatever cars come and go but we are lover of Polo GT Tsi as owner of GT tsi I really love the power and we have clubs of Polo Gt Tsi in Hyderabad

[@OffroadingVignesh]

I will choose Volkswagen Polo GT

[@Enfielder1985]

Any new performance oriented automatic hatchback launches in India... All auto channels: just compare it with the old Polo GT. And that's because it's still the benchmark.

[@csgautham]

For me it’s Polo. I chose the manual TSI (Blue) over the N line. P.S: I had a Polo TDI for 5 years earlier

[@abhinavpa7688]

VW should bring the next generation of the Polo and it would be unbeatable

[@m1sba7]

Volkswagen Polo GT TSI anyday 💪❤️

[@avh6374]

Common Hyundai, get this atleast a 4 star rating in gncap and I'm convinced of the entire package.

[@devashishpatwardhan3]

I have the POLO GT TSI 2020 model and have been driving it for a whole year now, the creep function being a bit faster than other Automatics is actually a boon! I love that it goes a bit faster than other cars because I dont have to accelerate in traffic. you get used to it so much that when you drive any other automatic, you'll hate having to accelerate in traffic. I love my Polo GT so much that even after a year, I still feel excited when I drive it every single day.

[@harshalgarapati]

Polo GT TSI has a 4-star NCAP rating, better engine. Would blindly go for a German Hatch over a Korean Hatch.

[@enthusiast9998]

Polo is a beast, its an emotion, its a gem✨

[@pattybavant]

Lemme tell you what I did, buy a Polo TSI MT and for the difference in price of the i20N Line, TUNE THE FREAKING CAR and you got a sleeper.

[@awadhesh02]

I am driving VW Polo since 2011 and again bought another VW Polo TSI with Manual GB...still noone hatch can beat this...Even some dashing accessories can not beat VW Polo TSI.

[@rcs5085]

Polo is still the best and close to the perfect car for daily commute…Also much better value over the Korean hatch

[@dr.narasimhareddy4726]

Hyundai even being compared with VW in terms of performance is an achievement for Hyundai!!

[@sedhupathi9282]

No doubt polo is always king💥💥💥

[@nikhilgoudar5761]

5:12 Really true because we also own a 2017 polo and there is no difference between our model and which the model they are driving

[@Mukesh_Rana._]

TSI with manual is the way to go

[@jude2222-l9f]

polo gt tsi. still the undisputed hot hatch. have been owning this since 2018 with the dsg gearbox but havent driven the 2020 model(with the torque converter). pretty sure it wont disappoint

[@ato4900]

Just look at the paint quality on the polo well quality speaks for itself💯

[@abhiastic8353]

I will choose i 20 over polo, bcoz i 20 has maximum features, good performance, etc. We can't choose cars only on the basis of which is faster and which is good at performance. U can see when there is a small race between i20 and polo, u find that there is not much gap. But however polo wins. Polo has only performance engine and a german build quality. But we can't left i20 bcoz it is little bit overpriced and have less performance than polo. We have to just travel from A to B. And in that it can also run at 100+ km/hr. So, performance check is only best suitable for races. Millions of i20 has sold in india. So here comes the main part. That's why i only choose i20 best suitable and a family car with features, comfort, power and good build quality 👌

[@Punisher.1994]

Passing the baton? C'mon, I would still go for Polo, those funky features on i20N don't excite me much. Polo is love.❤️❤️❤️

[@bvudoc8675]

Polo is so strong the newer ones want to be pitted against it 👏🏼

[@rajeshnaladi4553]

I am sure you guys can compare same old polo with i20 even after 10 years still Polo beats another car.... POLO IS LEGEND 👍👍

[@vanshc5923]

Hyundai should release a stripped-down version of the N-Line without some of the bells and whistles, and a manual transmission for a more analogue hot-hatch experience. Don't know how well that would work in India though

[@johy2007]

NLine for me. Better overall package and wider service network. It is a pleasure to drive.

[@HimWanderer]

It's the Polo that I would pick over the Hyundai. I test drove the TSI and the N-Line, that extra 10 horses and the i20 still felt slower than the Polo, not to forget the superior build on the Polo.

[@aloysiusmannoor3923]

Polo has been the same for past 10yrs...But i20 is evolving ...I think one day it will be the fun to drive hatch.

[@vishnucar]

A mode to just make the i20’s engine more lively and gearbox more snappy maybe will go a long way. “Just” a software update then Hyundai! 😋

[@varun1036]

Looks like a Chennai vs Mumbai contest lol. Hyundai for me. I want space and better looks. Also i get 6 airbags, all disc brakes & a Bose sound system!

[@vfrfandom3904]

Hyundai and Volkswagen should have to celebrate by releasing the WRC Road legal cars for consumers...

[@manoj.s.chandra5643]

No new car can harm the polo gt with mind blowing tsi motor under the hood

[@laveen8294]

Polo for life❤️

[@Motoring_With_Manas]

Polo is a more modular car…..you can fit stuff from other VWs and it’s more tuneable and comes with 3 pedals as well…..and Polo has more VFM

[@shanmum2690]

I own a 2019 VW golf in germany with 1.0 TSI, that generates 115PS and 200 Nm from 2000 rpm. It pulls amazingly. It's a gem. I hope they tune the next gen Polo in india with this configuration. With polo's compact structure and handling and this configuration, it will blow away every other hatchback in competition.

[@nidhinsl2603]

Polo is great car but to spend close to 11 lakh on road and to get a car which is 10 year old in 2021 is an issue hope they bring the facelifted polo and make it sub 4 m

[@ravindrababu1413]

Always POLO GT TSI EVER AND EVER

[@Siddharth_x17]

95% saying polo in chats but I'm dam sure that whenever they have to choose btw them . they'll definitely go for i20. And Also my fav is i20. Absolute a Global car Not like Volkswagen Ind who are not giving polo next generation 😪 in indian market.

[@vanshjain8169]

Everyone is spamming polo gt tsi because it was the legend in this segment but in the new era I would go for i20 n line 🤷‍♂️

[@chamankudmarbettu5675]

You have to agree that the Polo TSI manual is more fun than the automatic. I own a polo TSI highline plus manual and it's much more connected than the torque converter polo.

[@bhavinkumarpandey4226]

I would pick the polo with manual gearbox I20 doesn't have a proper manual and for a car to be fun It should have a three pedals

[@tanujsoni3057]

One more thing to add is That the TSI engine is tuner-friendly! Can handle stage 2 tune without a fuss and even lowered springs. I can buy a polo and a stage 2 map plus cobra lowering springs and it will beat the I20 anyway.

[@AmitMehta0112]

Doors of an i20 don't thud as best as a Polo's.. robust built, lesser rattle over long time. Of course it is lesser in instrumentation segment but a VW enthusiasts always a VW enthusiasts

[@nandandeshpande1277]

The Polo caters to a very specific part of the population while the i20 caters to a much wider sector of the population being more tech and feature heavy as well as having an adequate level of power and torque and having decent ride and handling.

[@thedog-ters2283]

VW Polo GT tsi is a benchmark.....More than 10 years😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@aayushkarnik7166]

Polo is over 10 years old but still the most fun to drive car in the segment

[@karthikbalasubramanian7703]

Always VW Polo ❤️❤️❤️

[@dr_kisna]

And here i am looking at my 5 year old Abarth Punto and smirking.

[@thariqaziz9390]

Any hatch may come and go, Polo the Beast any day

[@champgogoi3101]

Video start hone se pehle he bata du main polo ki taraf hu... ✌️✌️✌️

[@johndavidson3424]

But the video results show something else, bro.

[@taranshupattnaiktp3335]

It is very nice to have two persons featuring in a comparison, should be done in every upcoming comparisons, should be interesting to see who likes what or does not like

[@rohittyagi5286]

Not surprised to see huge polo fan base here....isn't it that we unintentionally watch just after seeing polo being compared with another hatchback

[@ahmadfaiz2690]

12 lakh is also price of XIV700 Base varient ☺️ And older i20 was beautiful 😍

[@sankush44]

Come on VW..!! Bring the latest generation of Polo and no other car could beat it for another decade🔥

[@shivvashishthabhargava4600]

Massive respect for Hyundai! Very nice work! Sharp! Yes. The Polo is a driver's delight. 2022 Baleno should get another RS variant! (with better build, damping, NOT A detuned engine!)

[@randomshots8986]

Very Emotional Videooooo......VW Fans Here....🙌🏼Love Hyundai As Well

[@sabareesh10]

The Polo has a very vocal and loyal fan base, for a reason no doubt!! But for a lot of us who are not going corner carving every weekend or pushing the limits of the car, it is a very hard sell. It does not have a lot of features that are now considered bare minimum in 2021. Features like a reversing camera, rear AC vents etc. And for those reasons, my vote is for the N line.

[@coolcaptain165]

A German model in a red dress always a dream to see my favourite car polo compared to any new models till now even if it's outdated

[@amithjhaneesh7641]

Both are best and good looking❤ but for performance no one can beat polo🔥

[@user-rg2dy4rn4z]

VW polo deserves to be in a museum .

[@0TO100anilkmrr]

I would still go with Abarth Punto . 1.4 ltr @145 bhp for the same price . So sad fiat left india . But if you can still get a Punto , go for it . On a Punto When u step on the gas / take corners IT WOULD PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE .

[@ManuBright]

Any day a VW, Hyundai will never be able to make a quality engine and gearbox as a VW. The VW engineering is much ahead. Tha handling of the VW is awesome . Not to mention the Safty you feel in a German car !

[@mukulmathur9286]

i have been driving a GT for last 6 years and it has never disappointed me a single day - i know it small cabin wise and doesnt have all fancies but the engine performance rocks it all

[@rakshitkumardixit88]

Can add stiffer suspension and lowering springs to the polo and install a steering wheel with paddles which is plug and Play Yes the polo is outdated but the 1.0 TSI engine is a killer and even just a simple Stage 1+ Remap it'll be absolutely amazing 🔥

[@hardfeelings4028]

Polo=best engine,best gearbox,best build,fun to drive,low cost🔥🔥🔥enough to me

[@SkillCharged]

I have a Vento TSI from 2016. I don’t know a single person who would upgrade from Polo/Vento to i20. I am personally looking forward to Taigun instead.

[@vish91]

You have missed two key areas - Tuning potential (Remap only to make it easy) and Aftermarket parts. Factor this in and the polo will walk away with it

[@nikhilesans9379]

Ford Figo or freestyle Diesel will kill these 2 machines anyday.. Ford is love ❤️

[@ninadganore]

Just buy a skoda rapid before it leaves the market. everything that the polo has plus more space.

[@manas2391]

Polo gt tsi is muchhhh better than the normal i20/n line, in fact it's the best car in the segment but when it comes to their performance version it's the opposite, i20N is a much better car than the polo GTI

[@Dashamuulam]

I would defenitely go for i20Nline🔥 Both cars are not so good at handling but i20 has great interior trims,sporty elements,paddle shifters and steering feel and feedback is actually improved from the previous gens and the features they offered for this price is insane..!🔥 I dont understand why VW selling this 10 year old unreliable hatch for 12 lakh still in 2021

[@arnabchakraborty4915]

"Unreliable hatch" ! Pity u

[@r.d.v4860]

Dasamoolam daamu😎😎

[@Asishh_]

എന്റെ പൊന്നു ഭാമൂ , polos handling and fun to driveness is unmatched 😆🔥

[@sharannyobasu1538]

Unreliable hatch? God bless you

[@tejashwibhaskar]

@@Asishh_ untill u drive a ford aspire tdci

[@jackbond4453]

Guys, nothing, nothing can beat the polo, in drive and fun. No hatchback near it, no sedan near it, and go for the manual. And that door thud.

[@vijaypalsingh0095]

11:25 entry of king 👑

[@harikrishnan1851]

Polo❤️

[@brosenagaming5820]

Volkswagen polo, the car that sales only on social media 🔥🔥

[@gauthamjagadeesh2645]

Polo may not have all those fancy features, but still it's the best hatchback ever!!! It may be a 10year old and outdated, yet it's the best looking car , no car can beat in its segment!!! I prefer polo for its killer looks and enthusiasts feels!!!

[@rockfordzzz]

Brand new hot hatch launches...gets compared to polo 😂 signs of a true legend 😎

[@kateshubham8137]

Polo 😎❣️😍

[@snehithsudhan9545]

You should have brought Fiat Abarth Punto..not in production but still a strong competitor for both... freaking killer engine awesome steering response heavy cornering ability..what to say it was a real Scorpion King!

[@vigneshjaishankar1576]

Woah autocar peeps really know what people wanna I waited a long time for you guys to post this. Because I’m gonna book mine real sooon

[@PepperShepard]

Bring in the next gen Polo or the EU Fabia here to India…and they will be hard to even compete with for the next 10 years 😂😂😂 anyways this i20 toy car is costing 13 L on road all the way … so VW group : please bring in your big guns for the small house 😊

[@drdravidan1]

All the commenters praising the Polo have definitely not driven the i20 Nline. Just a fast engine and gearbox doesn't make a good car. It's the steering and handling that trumps in daily driving. From someone owning a first gen Polo GT TSI with DSG, trust me when is say the new i20 Nline is in a different league in steering and suspension tuning. Polo can now only live on past laurels and will be delegated down the ladder if VW doesn't update it soon.

[@ayushman2347]

Personally as a gt owner I completely agree with your point it's way better in driving than the normal one the polo is particularly the drag race king and the person buying it is an enthusiast for sure just i20 don't get that thud or the quality else i20 is overall better decision than polo as of now when there are news of new polo coming by 2024

[@SyedMYahya]

Any upcoming video on the All New Tiguan 2021?? Interior reveil video??

[@debadityasaha1684]

Always VW

[@timeisup6844]

Which one is more reliable??Hyundai or VW??As am someone who goes for reliable Honda or Toyota machines, I would like to know how good is Hyundai and VW in terms of reliability..

[@ajayshankar3675]

My fiat abarth punto, would still cream both these cars, but maintaining it is a real challenge...still love it though..

[@hubert140990]

My favourite hatch till date is Polo... Seeing you guys in the Nline man can't wait to taste the pedal shift 😂😂😂

[@vinothraju266]

Only thing missing from i20 N-Line is crash test rating.. It should get atleast 4 star rating.. If no then better to go with Polo...

[@adarshsharma5420]

Everyone gangsta until figo Diesel kicks in

Good to see you Saumil back

[@amrithlal6695]

It's good to have a car to compare.

[@_Sanjay_xo]

For people who are saying polo is far better than i20n, just go and test drive the i20n... I'm sure u will fall in love with that.
