New Hyundai i20 review

 It’s easy to see why the first  i20 was popular. When it was launched here in 2009, it was a fresh take on the large hatch and had almost everything buyers wanted – it was stylish, came with plenty of features and was spacious enough to almost justify its entry-level-saloon rivaling price. Fact is, i20 prices have always been on the upper slopes of the small-car hill, and it is no different this time around. At Rs 6.21 lakh for this mid-life refreshed Asta, this new i20 is still more expensive than the top-end Swift and the Skoda Fabia.So, to make you feel like you’re getting your money’s worth, Hyundai has loaded this with even...

Hyundai Elantra Review

Hyundai has pulled another hit from the factory. The totally redesigned Elantra is an eye catching vehicle worthy of consideration over the Corolla, Cruze and Mazda3. The interior quality is top notch in the Limited model. I'm 6'1' and the driver seat is very comfortable and with my seat set, I can get into the back seat with no problems. The only concern is that if I'm sitting in the back, my head does hit the back roof line, but there is enough room for me to slouch into a comfortable position.
