The i20 N Line is the first of Hyundai’s N performance division cars in India, more of which will follow in the coming years. N Line models only get cosmetic changes and a few mechanical upgrades. Full-blown N models in India still seem a distant reality.

Lol. So they are charging 50-1L for just minor enhancements.

The suspension is stiffer, it has all four disc brakes and some sporty visuals. Considering the premium is only 30k or so it doesn’t seem that bad.
They have both an N line and an N version. The N version is the one which comes with a powerful engine
 
12L for a hatchback is crazy lol. At one point of time you could have bought the Mini or Fiat 500 in India for around the same money. Or maybe not 🤔

i don't even want to check the price of the polo gt/gti. probably closing in on 15L?
 
To be fair I don’t see much difference between compact suvs and large hatchbacks. If you compare the Sonet to the i20, they are the same length, same engine and transmission options and mostly same features.
 
lol. seltos has a variant that costs 17.8L.

 


You do get an unstable structure with a low safety rating for that bargain price
 
I wonder if Kia and Hyundai cars share platforms. I20 and seltos might have the same base lol.
 
There was some thread of team-bhp explaining it. Both sell 5 star rated versions of these in Europe/Australia etc. but they use cheaper steel etc to cut costs in India
 
Polo GT is much better car in hatchback space. Comfort level in long drives is evident in German cars, specially VW.
 
The previous gen polo gt tsi 1.2 is probably better but I would say not the current neutered 1.0 version.

There was a comparison recently on one of the car shows on TV and this was the conclusion.
 
I don’t think people who are only looking for enthusiastic driving look at Hyundai cars anyways. Their USP is always having a lot of features, good service network, good resale value etc. All of which Volkswagen lacks.
 
I bought the 1.2 polo gt tsi mid 2019 for just over 11 lacs. Bought it in a rush to beat the anticipated neutering to 1.0 engine.

If I were in the market for so-called hot hatch today I would most likely have gotten the i20 1.2 dct top end variant.
