Zigwheels | 7 months ago Hyundai i20 active is a sporty version of elite i20. There are mainly cosmetic changes made to the simple elite i20. Engine options are same for both the cars. So there is no difference in power. The i20 active has bigger wheels which gives high ground clearance to the car. The cars use ventilated disc brakes at front and drum brakes at rear. The braking system is complimented by ABS which prevents the wheel from locking up during hard braking. The top variants of the cars are also equipped with features like Airbags, central locking, engine immobilizer, ELR seat belts, park assist sensors with camera, door ajar warning, parking brake warning, headlamp on indicator etc. If we have one of them then our choice will be Elite i20 in terms of looks. On the other hand, i20 Active does offer better ground clearance and is indeed more capable than the original car since it offers some off-roading capability too. However, when comparing it with the Elite i20 it falls short in the looks department where the Elite i20 excels. ...Read More 2 Reply

Zigwheels | 8 months ago The Elite i20 has stood the test of time and the facelift does just enough to keep the it relevant in a highly competitive segment. The new i20 features a few changes but is essentially still the same car with slightly improved driving dynamics. So if you’re looking for a frugal yet youthful family hatch, the i20 is still a viable option. On the other hand, the Hyundai i20 Active is a good looking car, but fails to pull a proper cross-hatch image. It is loaded with features and the fact that it is based on the Elite i20 speaks volumes about its comfort and reliability. The only thing that remains to be seen is when Hyundai will give it a facelift, like the Elite i20. ...Read More 1 Reply

Q. Which is the best car in context of build quality and performance along with good boot space and leg room in petrol version under 7 to 8 Lakh on road price.

Vinay | 3 weeks ago Elite i20 is a good car, very good comfort level, good build quality materials used inside & outside of car but need to compromise with mileage of petrol i20. One thing is sure once you enter inside of car & drive it, you feel premium car like Audi driving experience. Performance wise car takes times to get pick up in 2nd gear, It easily go 60 - 100 km without any extra efforts very smoothly. Need to say if you are looking for premium class with good comfort can go blindly with i20 but mileage wise slightly slow compare to any Maruti vehicles... What else to say further.... As i have Elite i 20 Asta O Petrol 2017 model and driving busy Bangalore city traffic gets around 12 -13 km in city & highway around 17 - 18 km depends on driving pattern. You can easily get around 17 km with smooth driving on highway & 12 km in city with full time Ac. Even i gets same till now. Maintenance come around 4- 5 thousands with service interval around 10000 km...even you can check hyundai venue also ...Read More 3 Reply
