Detailed analysis of the Hyundai ix35 4x4 2.0 Comfort · 163 CV (2011)
General description
The Hyundai ix35 burst onto the market as a statement of intent, a breath of fresh air that redefined the Korean brand's image. Leaving behind the sobriety of its predecessor, this SUV presented itself with a bold design and an overwhelming personality, ready to conquer the hearts of families seeking adventure and style in a single package.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 2.0-liter, 163 hp gasoline engine feels energetic and willing, delivering its power smoothly and progressively. The 5-speed manual gearbox connects you with the drive, while the AWD all-wheel drive provides a sense of unwavering security and poise, whether on winding roads or when the asphalt disappears. Its on-road behavior instills a confidence that invites you to devour miles, feeling in control at all times.
Design and aesthetics
The 'Fluidic Sculpture' design of the ix35 was a true revolution. Its fluid and muscular lines give it an imposing and dynamic presence that still turns heads today. Every curve and every crease seems sculpted by the wind, creating an athletic and elegant silhouette. Inside, the space is generous and welcoming, with a 465-liter trunk that proves beauty is not at odds with functionality, offering a practical and comfortable haven for daily life.
Technology and features
For its time, the ix35 Comfort came equipped with the necessary technology to make every journey more pleasant and safe. The speed-sensitive electric power steering is a clear example, adapting to offer smoothness in the city and firmness on the highway. Although it didn't have today's giant screens, its equipment more than sufficed, focusing on the essentials: safety, comfort, and reliable mechanics with a C label that already looked towards a cleaner future.
Competition
The ix35 didn't have it easy. It entered a battlefield dominated by titans like the Nissan Qashqai, the Ford Kuga, or the Volkswagen Tiguan. However, it knew how to stand its ground with powerful weapons: a design that captivated at first sight, an exceptional quality-price ratio, and Hyundai's characteristic reliability. It became the smart and passionate alternative for those who didn't want to follow the crowd.
Conclusion
The Hyundai ix35 is much more than an SUV; it is the symbol of a brand's transformation. A vehicle that demonstrated you could have a spectacular design, a spacious interior, and the versatility of all-wheel drive without emptying your bank account. Driving it is to feel the pride of a winning bet, a balanced and characterful car that left an indelible mark on the segment.
