Trending Questions on Hyundai Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
I have an elite i20 2018 model my stock size is 195/55 r16 but I want to install 195/60 r16 because that's the tyre comes in Geolandar XCV newly launched by Yokohama. I am confident enough that these upsize will not hamper but I want to know that installing these tyres will it be good? As my i20 is lightweight compared to SUV and these tyres are mostly made for SUV and heavy vehicle so am I putting an extra load by adding these heavy tyres, will it damage my enitre dynamics drastically? I want a superior braking, and a good comfort road noise minimisation could be average but should not be too soft that it gets easily punctured or cracks in sidewall while hitting a potholes. heard many reviews of UC 6 getting punctures and cracks in sidewalls due to potholes. Turanza 6i is also an alternative but comes with the same problem too much soft compound and I drive like idgaf in potholes without any stress. Another good option is blue earth gt max shall I consider it but heard that wet grip is not that great and doesn't feel good in steering. As the geolandar xcv launched newly in India so I was kinda leaned towards its preference but as it is made for only Suv and crossover am kinda in doubt what should I do. Please suggest something worth invsting my money for.
The Geolandar XCV is a good tyre, but it is designed for SUVs and crossovers, and your Hyundai i20 is a much lighter car. The tyre will be heavier than your stock tyre, and that will add unsprung weight, which will affect ride quality and handling. The sidewall will also be stiffer than a typical hatchback tyre, which could make the ride harsher on a light car like the i20. The upsize from 195/55 R16 to 195/60 R16 is not huge, but it will increase the overall diameter by about 3.5%, which will slightly affect speedometer accuracy and gearing.If your priority is durability and resistance to sidewall damage, the Geolandar XCV will do the job, but it is overkill for an i20.
I am planning to buy a sub-4m SUV and have shortlisted the Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus Automatic and Hyundai Venue HX5 Diesel Automatic. My annual running is expected to be around 16,000 to 18,000 km, including approximately 12,000 km of highway driving. From an economic point of view, I am slightly concerned about the Kylaq’s real-world petrol mileage, especially given the high amount of highway running. I am also concerned about the long-term implications of E20 petrol and whether it could lead to any issues in the future. On the other hand, I have concerns about buying a diesel due to the possibility of future government restrictions and the uncertainty around long-term diesel ownership. Considering these factors, I would appreciate your advice on which of the two would be the better choice for at least eight years of ownership.
Go for the Hyundai Venue Diesel Automatic. With your annual running of 16,000-18,000 km and a strong highway component, the diesel makes clear financial sense. The Venue’s diesel is refined and well suited to long-distance driving, and the 6-speed torque converter automatic is smooth and reliable. Hyundai’s service network and ownership experience are also strong, which matters over an 8-year horizon.The Skoda Kylaq Signature Plus Automatic is the better driver’s car, but the 1.0 TSI petrol will not match the diesel’s efficiency at your running, and the E20 concern is largely overstated – modern engines are engineered for it, and there is no official roadmap beyond E20. On the diesel side, the government has not announced any blanket restrictions on private diesel cars, and with Bharat Stage 6 and DPF technology in place, long-term ownership is not a major concern.The Venue is the more sensible and cost-effective choice for your usage pattern. If you want a more premium and spacious diesel SUV, the Kia Seltos Diesel Automatic is worth stretching for, but within your shortlist, the Venue is the right call.
I'm considering buying the Hyundai i20 N Line N8 MT. I've driven other cars, including the new Venue DCT and XUV300 MT, but this will be my first car. Is the i20 N Line a good choice for me? My annual running will be low, and I'll mostly be driving on highways. Also, should I consider going for the DCT instead of the manual?
The Hyundai i20 N Line N8 MT is actually a very good choice for your requirements. Since this is your first car, you want something that is easy to drive, reliable and confidence-inspiring, and the i20 N Line fits that brief well. The turbo petrol engine is punchy and refined, and the manual gearbox is smooth and easy to operate, which makes it a great car for both city driving and highway runs. The N Line also adds a bit of sportiness and character without compromising on everyday usability.Given your low running and predominantly highway usage, the manual makes more sense than the DCT. The Hyundai Venue DCT is a good car, but the i20 N Line feels more special to drive.
I’m planning to buy a sub-compact SUV with a budget of around Rs 12 lakh. I prefer a manual transmission and am looking for a car that offers a smooth and comfortable driving experience in both the city and on highways. I also travel to hill areas about twice a year, so I’m unsure whether a turbocharged or naturally aspirated (NA) engine would be better suited to my requirements. The two cars I’m currently considering are the Maruti Suzuki Brezza with its 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine and the Hyundai Venue with its 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. I’d like to understand which engine would be better suited to my usage, how the two compare in city traffic, highway driving and hill roads, and which would offer better long-term reliability and ease of maintenance. I’d also like to know the expected difference in real-world mileage between the two and, considering my overall requirements and budget, which of the two would be the better choice.
Go for the Maruti Suzuki Brezza 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol. It is the better fit for your requirements. The 1.5L NA engine is smooth, refined and delivers linear power, which makes it easy to drive in the city, comfortable on highways and predictable on hill roads. It has enough torque to handle inclines without feeling strained, and you do not have to worry about turbo lag or the need to downshift aggressively on steep sections.The Hyundai Venue 1.0L turbo is a punchy engine and feels more energetic when pushed, but it does have some turbo lag at low speeds and requires more gear changes on hills. It is also a smaller three-cylinder engine, so it is not as refined as the Brezza’s four-cylinder unit. In terms of reliability and maintenance, Maruti has the edge with a simpler naturally aspirated engine and a wider service network.Real-world mileage will depend on driving style, but the Brezza should deliver slightly better consistency, especially on highways and hills, while the Venue turbo can be more efficient if driven gently in the city. Overall, the Brezza is the more dependable and easier-to-live-with choice for your usage pattern.
The parking space in my apartment is very small. I can park a car similar in size to a Wagon R, but anything larger will be tight. I am planning to buy a small car by 2028. My budget is up to Rs 13 lakh, and I want a car with cruise control. As far as I have seen, only Maruti makes small cars, but none of its current models appeals to me because they feel too basic and do not offer cruise control. I have heard that Maruti is planning to launch small cars such as the Suzuki Hustler and a new small EV similar to the eWX. Is it wise to wait for these models? Are they likely to be available by 2028?
Since you are planning to buy only in 2028, there is little reason to compromise on a car that does not meet your requirements today. The upcoming Hyundai compact EV, which will sit in the Punch EV/Nexon EV space, is particularly worth waiting for. It is expected to be a compact, city-friendly SUV with modern features, and Hyundai has already confirmed Level 2 ADAS and a new-generation infotainment system.Maruti Suzuki is also working on smaller products. The Hustler-based compact SUV has been reported for around 2027, while the eWX-based affordable EV is expected around 2027–28. However, the exact specifications, pricing and launch timelines are still not confirmed.
