I live in Brazil. We don't have i20 here. I have no money to buy a car but for some reason I still watch your videos! Great car channel!

i´v owned a 2018 pre-facelift 1.2L i20 since early 2019 and after 5 years of owner ship and 3 trips across Europe it is still going strong and it has been absolutely faultless, the only thing i have had to change (apart from regular yearly maintenance) were the rear brake pads. Try that with a 6 year old VW or Ford....

Very good design. A straightforward practical car, without all the pretentious crap that other manufacturers try to foist on you.

0:58 - I would agree with you on the entry level car not having air con. I mean, who really wants to buy a car in 2018 that doesn’t have air conditioning?!

I own an i20 in India since 2016 and it’s mid option and it has center arm rest with storage, rear AC vents

OMG finally someone with an Oneplus 5/5t in Europe.

Why are most people in the comments hating this car? It is hell lot of a car for the price. We have one as a city car in the family (alongside A6 allroad) and it is a super value for the money. We paid like 11.500 eur for the medium trim with alloy wheels and 1.4 (4cyl) petrol engine (which is btw 100 bhp, which is pretty good for a 1.200kg car). Reliability and usability is pretty good too (no problems in 2 years whatsoever). Yes it does not have the infotainment etc (in most European markets it is only in the highest trim), but what you want for the price. One thing though I do not agree with the review: it is really noisy at highway speeds. It is just a car for the city (not mentioning the gearbox with super short gears - and that is the 6spd one). But as a value car for the city it excels imo.

I am very impressed by the i20. I would not buy it as of now but if I was getting a car of that size today, yea maybe I would get it. Never thought I would say that I could possibly get a Hyundai a couple of years ago.

Whoops... Matt forgot about the glove box again 😂

[sohamchowdhury]

Here in India we got a major facelift of this car this year(2018)

I wish there was an i20N so I could talk about buying it and never actully do it.

[venkateshsanagapalli]

I own both OnePlus 5t and elite i20 top spec and both of them are doing pretty good job. I am sure one wouldn't regret owning them.

I brought a new one just before christmas love it i got the premium se with the armrest and no sat nav but can easily attach your phone to the dashboard as long as you don't have an LG like i do . All in all very happy

[love__and__hope__]

Best car ever bought. Drive it for 2 years and love it.

Just hired one of these, nice car, no gimmicks it was fairly basic with aircon. Decent ride and seems well built. 1 year old with 4 years warranty remaining for £8k makes it a good buy !

[indelebilis]

For bigger people is actually better that central armrest isn't there because it would be in the way when shifting manual.
