-carwow is there any point in considering the i20n if fuel consumption is something you care about? I live in Greece so gasoline is around 1. 7 euros per litre when prices go up. and according to the site it is around the 8-9litre per 100km (around 30mpg for imperial. I currently drive my mother's seat toledo 2003 (and filling it up costs around 85-90euros for around 500-550km which is fking expensive) makes me need to fill up every around 3 weeks

That i20 goes like a stabbed rat, but I heard all kinds of Rodney visits in the engine bay and other issue with Hyunday engines. Which is a sad thing to say, because the engine is the only weakness of the car. I also like the st looks better.
As a side note, high 20s for a hot hatch sounds a bit bonkers to me. Wouldn't it be much better to get an brz or gt86 for about the same?

Just bought the i20n on the strength of these videos. Just changed from a Cooper s, tried the ST but it felt dull and just didn't like it. The i20 is a car that i just love heading out for a drive which I didn't do with the mini. The i20 does remind me of an old school hot hatch and for me, is a genuine budget alternative to a yaris which was way over my budget.

That VW is not a good hot hatch at all, engine sounds like whiney awfulness. and automatic. The Hyundai is impressive considering the company roots, but it does scream a bit of chav. The Ford ST still keeps it for me though, it's by far the best looker and the engine is about 80% of what makes a hot hatch exciting, and it wins.

You know mats sponsored by VW when he constantly bangs on about a boring polonor golf. Everyone knows the i20namd fiesta are drivers cars. Whybdid he spend more time on the VW? The VW is the most boring to look at the worst gearbox and the worst interior.

Could you do a review comparing the GTI in the video to the previous generation? I can't decide between the two of them, I'd like a newer car with the upgraded tech etc but I can't help but think the 1. 8 old gen would be a bargain when comparing the price

Totally agree with you Mat. Hyundai is making good cars for value. It is truly a pity that current GTI don't have manual gearbox because it would be a round car, that's why it loses, it is a car that pretends to have a sportier configuration.

The fiesta ST sounds better than you showed. Pop it into sports mode and it improves it massively, pops and crackles. Matt/carwow is always biased towards the i20n though so I'm not surprised they wanted it to sound the best lol

The Hyundai sounds like it's broken.
The Fiesta ST sounds the best imo, styling wise I'm not a fan of any of the cars, but I wouldn't drive the i20N. Looks too obnoxious and childish for my taste.

I20N has the best design, engine sound and feels unique. Other cars are plain and boring for fanboys that like ugly designs and shitty engine sounds. My i20N I ordered is coming in 4 months
