Pros Cons of Hyundai Elite i20

Pros

  • Sporty looks and sleek appearance
  • Comes with a plethora of engine and gearbox options
  • The i20 also comes with the N Line Variant which looks even sportier

Cons

  • The i20 is low on ground clearance
  • The NLine variant could have done with a bit more power
  • You will be crammed for space at the rear

Verdict

The Hyundai Elite i20 is a family dependable premium hatchback. It is absolutely reliable and comfortable. With all the features it has to offer, it sets itself apart in that department, and that turbo engine makes it a pocket rocket for sure. It ticks all the right boxes in the ride and handling department, but is that enough to stay ahead in that segment? We think, it's enough to call it the new benchmark!

Pros Cons of Honda Civic

Pros

  • Sexy looks
  • Premium and spacious cabin
  • Powerful and peppy petrol engine

Cons

  • Low profile tyres are noisy
  • Steering at times feels cumbersome
  • Petrol-manual drivetrain would have done wonders

Verdict

And this is why the company has also taken cognizance of the feedback on the 8th gen car in India. The ground clearance for this India spec has been increased by 20 mm in front and 15 mm at the back. Having driven over a variety of roads, I can safely say that the ground clearance is not an issue whatsoever. I know you are now probably wondering where I stand on this car. It has some obvious flaws and some great strengths - but to me its also about its legacy and therefore the return of the Civic nameplate to India is just terrific. I welcome it warmly - and also now hope that Honda prices it sensibly. That won't just be great news for Civic fans, but also for the ailing midsize segment that badly needs a hit.
