New Hyundai Bayon 2023 UK Review – Just a bigger i20? | OSV Car Reviews

__________________________________________
Meet the Hyundai Bayon!
The Hyundai Bayon is the latest and smallest addition to the Korean brand’s European SUV line-up sitting below the larger Kona. Hyundai named it after the French holiday hotspot of Bayonne to show its dedication to meeting the demands of the European market.
So, does it? Well its bold styling, comfortable drive and mild hybrid potential make it an attractive offering. But it faces many tough rivals in the increasingly competitive small SUV segment like the Ford Puma, Citroen C3 Aircross, Renault Captur, Skoda Kamiq and many more (the list is endless).
Does the Bayon do enough to stand out from the crowd? And is it more than just essentially the SUV equivalent of the i20 supermini? Let’s find out...

Hi there had a test drive of the new automatic Hyundai Bayon ultimate it was very nippy to drive comfortable and did very well on the road and also the seats were comfortable and going over all the hump in road it very comfortable I was very pleased with his car and on top of that it’s like you did in the air the engine at all I like it quite a lot for what do you get in the car and the price I think it’s quite good

For me Sleek silver is the best looking color for Bayon😍

Improved production values in this one. Good review. Well done.

[GeoffRapley]

other reviewers say the boot capacity is 411 ltrs. which is correct?

[geoffmassingham]

No room for a spare wheel is there a run flat option for the Bayon? Thanks a brilliant review.

For my Bayon, delivery date is between 8. and 15. May 2023.
But i didn't get VIN number from the dealership.
Thank you 😊

Does it have front parking sensors? The premium trim car.

Hello does anybody know about reliability of this car?

[ANimouz]

I was considering this.. but when I saw it upclose I honeslty didn't like it one bit. I went straight for the i30 fastback nline. Much better engine, much better looks and more practical and fun car. This just looks weird and frankly it's quite small. For the money I would for the Yaris cross. Far better engine/consumption. And the car looks better as well.

Looks like you had plenty of legroom in the back to me..

I wish he wouldn’t mis pronounce his words wif/wiv instead of with, eiver instead of either, frough instead of through 😡
