Detailed analysis of the Hyundai i20 Tecno 1.4 CRDi 90 CV (2014-2017)
General description
The 2015 Hyundai i20 was presented as a statement of intent, a utility car that no longer just wanted to be an economical option, but a real and mature alternative to the European kings of the segment. With this generation, Hyundai delivered a car that feels solid, spacious, and surprisingly well-resolved, a faithful daily companion that wins you over with its intelligence and balance.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the i20 with the 90 HP 1.4 CRDi engine, the feeling is one of competent calm. It doesn't seek to bring a smile to your face on every curve, but to transport you with a smoothness and efficiency that are deeply appreciated. The diesel engine pushes decisively from low revs thanks to its generous torque, making city and highway driving relaxed. The six-speed gearbox is precise and helps keep consumption incredibly low. It's a car that conveys safety and the certainty that you will reach your destination without a hitch and with your wallet happy.
Design and aesthetics
Its exterior design, supervised from Europe, abandoned the more pronounced Asian lines to adopt a more sober and elegant language, with a presence that makes it seem larger than it is. Inside, space is the real star. The roominess in the rear seats and a 326-liter trunk are surprising, figures worthy of a higher segment. The materials, although mostly hard plastics, convey a sense of durability and good fit, creating a functional and honest atmosphere where everything is in its place.
Technology and features
In its Tecno trim, this i20 showed that an affordable car doesn't have to give up technology. Although it didn't have today's giant screens, its infotainment system was complete for its time, and it came equipped with comfort and safety features that made life on board easier. The technological heart, its common-rail direct injection diesel engine with a turbo, was a proven and efficient piece of engineering, coupled with electric power steering that made it very manageable in the city.
Competition
In such a competitive market, the i20 faced giants like the Ford Fiesta, the Volkswagen Polo, or the Renault Clio. While some of its rivals opted for a sportier feel or a more striking interior, the Hyundai played its master cards: an almost unbeatable relationship between space, equipment, and price, and a warranty that conveyed total confidence in its product. It was the logical and sensible purchase compared to perhaps more passionate options.
Conclusion
The Hyundai i20 1.4 CRDi is the personification of the smart buy. It's a car that doesn't make you fall in love with its speed or its risky design, but wins you over day by day with its reliability, low consumption, and surprising practicality. It is an honest vehicle that gives a lot for little and perfectly represents Hyundai's leap in quality. Driving it is feeling that you have made the right decision, one that your head and your heart can share without argument.
