It’s time for a FWD hot hatch showdown! Mat’s in the Hyundai i20N, and he’s lining up against the Ford Fiesta ST and VW Polo GTI!
So how do they compare on paper? Well first up we have the i20N, which is powered by a 1.6-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine to provide 204hp & 275Nm of torque. It also weighs in at 1,190kg.
Alongside the Hyundai we have the Fiesta ST. Its smaller 1.5-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged engine puts down 200hp & 290Nm, and it’s a touch heavier than the i20N, with a weight of 1,255kg.
Then finally we have the VW Polo GTI. It’s hiding a larger 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine under the bonnet, with a power output of 200hp & 320Nm. It’s also a bit heavier than its competitors, topping the scales at 1,335kg.
So, which of these FWD hatchbacks will come out on top? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

I love these affordable little cars races more than supercars races , it’s relatable and close to every car enthusiast reality .
ㅇㅈ
Rly tho, i dont wanna see a 90k car im never in my life gonna splash something like that unless i was a multi millionaire
And I absolutely love the actual manual shifting 💪💪
Affordable? Then try to move to Denmark😅 polo gti Prices starts at 35000 pound…
@@cargoflug try in israel, polo gti starts at 70k$
Hyundai has come a long way and they're on the right track with their N performance division.
And right then electric cars come :D
@@MotoMario1 What’s your point here? Be it electric, hybrid, petrol or a diesel.. knowledge of tuning the chassis and dynamics will help them irrespective of power unit.
@@TheWAP5 My point is emotions
Agreed
Hyundai is really good at making electric cars as well. It seems like Hyundai is still smiling.
I don't understand why he's not turning on the N mode which is like race/sport mode instead of doing it in normal mode for drag races but still a very decent performance despite of not using the N mode for races like these. Such a brilliant affordable car. Good job hyundai👍🏻
It's more responsive with higher boost, 18psi instead of 15psi in N mode. Mine is always in N mode.
How can anyone launch a car like that knowing the harm it's doing while axle tramping? It must lose traction too.
Because in N mode it would smoke the competition in every race which would be boring lol
To be fair enough, three cars should change lanes on each replay.
And/or drivers...
a change of drivers too. wanted to see matt in the gti
They should change lanes during the race.
💯
Agree!
Feels different seeing a drag race between small hot hatches, than supercars and I like it, something more affordable.
We're loving that i20 N!
@@carwow the race we all needed but never realised
"Something more affordable"..thank you😂🔥
@@jaydenandrews02 Yes £25k is pretty steep. The ST-2 were available new for £18k back in 2017. £7k more for the current model.
The temptation would be to push the boat out and get a GR Yaris. You will probably get most of the difference back when you come to sell it.
@carwow It's coming to India as well !
I love the Hyundai because I love how the i20N changes gear
I’ve got a fiesta st, drag races aren’t where it shines. It loves the B roads and loves driving on three wheels. Brilliant fun car!
For sure and I bet the Hyundai is the same! Of the 3 the Polo seems to be the best "highway" car
I had a Mk8 ST3 the last three years, traded it in for an i20N now and dont even think about my ST anymore. The i20N is more fun on twisty roads and more fun in drag races. Still running it in, but its already a beast at medium revs 🥰
@@grantorino9049 a months past, do you still feel the same about the i20n?
What its like with fuel economy?
Lol, “running it in”.
I don't know how that i20 managed to end up in this universe with such a sound, punch, and price
It's a true beast!
i drive the ST...and that i20 gives me nightmares. Both awesome cars but th i20 seems to have an edge even against the facelifted ST released last week
Simpel: man named albert biermann
@@Multivitamin02 I own a MK8 ST and we had an i20N on test. I20n is a great car, very grippy and both cars have points over the other.
I think think the ST is far more fun than the I20N but if you want something that’s going to crunch numbers round a track the I20 is the one to go for
@@Multivitamin02 Eaxctly why I ordered one! I had the Mk8 St3 for 2 years, fancied a change while trade in prices are high.
They all sound better than a 911 Turbo S
Weird comment but it’s indeed accurate 😅
Stock at least yeah :(
When revving at standstill yes, but defs not while accelerating
167%
Remove rev limiter and straight pipe 911 turbo s and you got a really good sound for not big price
I’ve had a Polo GTI Plus from new since 2019, and I still genuinely love it. Tbh I love it more now than ever. For me it’s the right balance of comfort and speed, and on the motorway I can easily average 55+mpg so it doesn’t rinse my wallet. As a daily driver I think it would be the best of the three, but tbh if I was doing a track day, I’d probably lean towards the Hyundai 👀
Had mine since new in 2019 too.
VW wanted to buy it back a month ago and offered me 18,000 which I thought was nuts.
I was expecting depreciation to have them offer me way less than that.
I kept it, because I like it lots.
Always been a golf fan all my life but i dislike the new chunky style so much that id rather have a polo if i had to choose
I share the exact same opinion
I love my Polo too
I’ve had my polo gti since 2019, and it’s an absolutely wonderful car.
Matt, I'm very impressed!! You handle the clutch on the manual very well there. I thought you were spoilt by all the launch controlled cars with fancy gadgets. Well done!!
The ones we never asked for are the ones we all like the most
Well, I’ll always be asking for Fiesta races, even if I can’t get that version
The ones we can actually afford
Cause they are the ones normal people can afford hahahaha
ua-cam.com/video/YQvXCzgJpSsk/v-deo.htmlg
Exactly! Tired of seeing super cars drag race.
Tell me you are british without saying you are british: *Matt who films 80% of his videos in the wet*
also he records his reviews intros mostly in the woods
If mat was a billionaire, he’d be sipping tea in the back of a Phantom
fancy a cup of tea?
UK gets a mostly unfair reputation for rain but where I live in the south west it's been officially classed as sub tropical and only rains about 800mm odd a year. Not sure where these vids are set but the UK can range from about 700mm to about 1600mm depending on where you are.
Have you got out moist
*PLEASE RE DO THIS ON A DRY DAY!*
*These races are better than the super cars some times* 😂😅
Not possible, people in UK see so little sun that they are allergic to it
Bruh everytime they do a fwd test it's always in a unfavorable day.
Thank you so much for so much amazing content. However i havent seen any info from you regarding the GR86 /BRZ... do you have more content on budget sports cars coming?
Manual FWDs on wet. This is finally some drag racing instead of machine-launching! 🤩👍

@@tmeisenmann3285 why are u copy pasting the same comment everywhere 😂🌚
How many ages!?
You gotta remember that Hyundai's N line are effectively BMW M cars. Albert Biermann the former head of research for BMW's M division went over to Hyundai for a while, literally founded their N division and then after making a couple of Hyundai's cars sporty and fun retired as head of R&D and now continues as a consultant for Hyundai and their N line. These things are QUICK, they sound fantastic and they're just little tiny M cars.
They are fun to drive, but Hyundai Kia are having huge problems with engine failures in the US, and that doesn't inspire much confidence even in the Czech built N cars
@@msagoo29 lmao the N cars don't have any problems here in US, there were few cars but that's not every single car and you can get it easly replaced under warranty. Yall just mad your shitty slow ford st which is our American car and gti slower than i20n
New gtd has the same time be interesting to see a match up like this. New a5 and 4 series both put in similar times would be cool to see mini hot hatch against something like these
A race between all of Hyundais N models would be a good watch! The i20N, i30n, i30n fastback and the Kona N! Please make it happen!
Oooohh thats sounds cool
Veloster N too
Yesssssss 🔥
Tuscon N too lol
:))) it would be Awsome cause i own a Kona N since a few Days would be so interessting
The ST has a flat shift function tho. If the ST sign flashes, you can press clutch without lifting the gas and it will hold the revs for the shift.
That's cool
They're also gay.
I wondered how to activate it, cheers lad
@@Mr.Marbles yeah i do, just wondered because i tried keeping my foot on the gas whilst changing gear and it failed miserably 🤣
Still a car for chavs and kids.
Looking forward to seeing your review of the new Golf Style eHybrid!
Great videos ,can't wait to see more.
????Match-up Buick Regal Turbo VS Honda Accord sport????
Especially when the track is as wet as it was you should swap the lanes after each drag race
@@melissa5553 Stfu, and no.
I’m a GTI owner, I have an advice for Carwow and anyone reading this comment, when you’re doing a pull from a dig with a FWD, do not use Launch Control, just floor it. The difference is huge. I managed 7.4s with Launch Control and 6.5s without launch control (Both on Sport mode) ELS diff.
If you launch from 3-3.5k rpm u get a clean launch in a civic si so maybe the same in the vw🤷🏾♂️
Same here. I’ve got the GTi+ with DSG. Tried launch control twice. All it did was sound awful! Just flooring in sport works far better and let the torque work. The other 2 are probably more fun at times but as a comfy all rounder which then decimates other traffic on a narrow B road overtake, you can’t beat the Polo GTi (and I’ve had M3 and 911!)
No offense here. I am also a former Polo GTI owner (had a 2020 Model fully loaded, but someone drove into it so I had to replace it.). The Polo GTI is super slow from 100-200Km/h it's terrible. The new FL version will get a 7 Speed DSG, which hopefully fix this a bit. I can't understand how these other cars in the test are almost doing even worse. Quality wise and from the maturity of the car, the Polo is WORLDS ahead of every competitor, that's for sure.
@@t3chn0m0 not when its racing a Toyota GR Yaris
@@t3chn0m0 For me it's on a UK B road (very narrow, bumpy, twisty) I use 90% of the time. Speed limit is 60mph (100Km/h) anyway so it's about going from 30-70MPH quickly to get past slow trucks in limited opportunities. I'm not going from 80-120MPH (140-200Km/H) = instant ban ! Many faster cars are just too wide to overtake.
A detailed comparison review between the three would be lovely!!! Comparing steering suspension handling fuel efficiency
Suspension is the stiffest on the i20n, steering is great and fuel efficiency is good
I enjoyed this drag race more then with supercars. These cars are so fun to watch!
Mat is like jumping the start all the time 😂 if he is not racing against Yanni (another jump starter), the others have no chances at all
big cheater
You need to check your eyes
If you really check you'll se the other two had slow reaction times, hMat didnt jump a single one of the starts
Checked and he certainly jumped the last one....only slightly but he did jump it.
he is not jumping the others are slow off the mark he is doing it correctly
The Polo GTI sounds better than that in sport mode Matt. Make sure the other guys are always in the sportiest settings for the sound check
Ekse im surprised why did this on a wet track... they must do it on a dry track..the vrrpaa would win😂😂
It only lacks pop and bangs which the others have stock. The fiesta st sounds good only because of it as anycar sound cool with it. Without it the fiesta would sound like a typical 900cc twingo.
@@n.s5771 Aweh SA in the house
My friend has this exact polo gti and I promise that’s exactly what it sounds like, the European sound laws really ruin that car especially with the soft limiter you can barely hear it even in a multi storey 😂
@@n.s5771 mate they are in England. If they were to wait for a dry track the next upload would be May 2022
I pickup my Polo GTI this week. This video makes the wait that little bit sweeter.
i want that i20nfor trackdays. With some kw clubsport, 40-50 more hp and a nice set of tyres, it should be really fun.
I've just ordered a performance blue i20n today! Can't wait for it to arrive!
congrats!
Have fun with it!
Have fun great choice!!!👌
she has arrived?
@@pizarro3 nope! Should have been end of December but still nothing!
Really appreciate these lower end car videos , has more of a fast and furious feel due to cars being more affordable to majority and mat smacking the limiter on the drag race each time
Really nice one @carwow, and I don't know if that was on purpose but thanks to your dashboard gopro on the i20 N we can even notice that you didn't activate the "N mode" which is the racing mode of the i20 N. On "N mode" the Speedometer looks way different.
So basically you did all of the test on "normal mode" but still got those amazing results !
Such a beast !
Thanks
Love seeing these more accessibly priced cars brilliant 🙂
The Hyundai’s exhaust sounds so good for such a small car!
And such a hyundai 😂😂
So good sound
It slightly compensate for the butt ugly back 😆
@@JeanV1986 very true haha
Sounds awful
@@JeanV1986 less uglier than both fiesta and polo
Dear Fiesta driver: STOP DRIVING ON THE WHITE MARKINGS THAT WATER DOESNT DRAIN OFF
HTH
I don’t even think he had it in launch control or he had traction control on
Still wouldn't change the outcome, I20n was launching and even driving through puddles, it was on the slickest part of the drag and still won with ease, proving the I20n is the better car despite the ST having MPS4S.
@@boygonewhoopdataZZ have to wait for a video without wet roads, and even then it would make it the fastest car on a straight (big assumption) not the "better" car
@@eriktenhag2022 IT is the better car lol, the Hyundai was made for track usage, the Fiesta? I doubt it'll be as good as the Hyundai Stock.
@@boygonewhoopdataZZ not sure about that I think the Fiesta will be better
Should swop lanes for each attempt in case of the track effecting launch.
When a 3 cylinder ford sounds better than a chiron and a turbo s while stationary
😂😂😂😂
It’s easy to guess which car will win, Mat always takes the fastest one, and starts on the left, so you can see him overtake both cars in the same shot.
But most episodes 992 Turbo S was in this channel it was on the right and without Matt driving it.
When grand tour raced polo and fiesta on a dry track the polo beat the fiesta. This race was just about who got the best traction off the line
And false start every time
Not always
@@Bobby10WRX Yeah, dude driving the Polo was fast asleep 😴 on the line 💤 for all 3 drag races...
🤦🏻♂️
I was waiting this hot hatch drag race but with the new i20N, the Fiesta ST 2022 and the Polo GTI 2022. Please this drag race as soon as possible.👍👍👍
I'll have to watch it with a bandage on my eyes I hate the style of both the hyundai and the terrible new fiesta design
Awesome drag race videos.
more tests like this plz..👍👍
The drag race of the compact cars is here!
Enjoy!
Sub compact
@@comedyman112 Compact! The Hyundai I10 is a subcompact. The I20 is a compact.
@@Muxkitto I'd say the i10 is a mini, the i20 is small, and the i30 is compact.
@@Muxkitto wrong again
subcompact examples: fiesta, polo, i20, yaris, rio
Compact examples: focus, gold, i30, corolla, ceed
The i20N is so impressive, should be in the running for car of the year tbh. This test doesn't really matter, but still good to see it do so well. It comes on Pirellis as standard as well which are typically not great in the wet, whereas the Fiesta is already on Michelin PS4s. The brand snobs need to get with the times.
I really want one (or an i30N).
Yeah, looking at the I20N aswell, instead of the I30N, can`t really justify the 10k+ more for the I30N
ive ordered the i20n. get it.
@@swabilius yeah I’d be looking at a i30N that’s a few years old so around the same price of the i20N. I’d prefer the more space, the looks and sound, the adaptive suspension. But brand new it’s not really worth the extra money, especially not as they increased the price a fair bit for the facelift ones
I30Ns are amazing, depends if you care about passenger comfort. I still think a i30N is too small but I cram 4 passengers in there a lot. If you don’t have passengers often get the i20N.
@@jayonefive234 I’m going to get a test drive in one when there are some available in my area
Love these videos
Definitely looking at the Polo GTI as my first car. Also looked at the Focus ST.
Impressed by the punch on the fiesta! Still a fast car after few years
Wish this car still existed in America... I love my current FiST but I'd still pick another up in addition.
Actually, should the tarmac had been dry, fiesta would have won the drag
@@mik3952 sure. It is more punchy and even breathes free at high revs. Which polo and i20 do not do.
@@dom3827 i got one , in fact she is nasty and confortable
Put the Mountune pack on it for extra LOLs
Loving what Hyundai are doing, not a fan of that rear though
The only downsize for me too. Otherwise, awesome engine this
They looked at the version Watch Dogs Legion did of it and thought « that’s it ! »
I'm a fan of that rear, of the front, infotainment engine, the fucking perfect gearbox.. the line , the tutto
I've had a vanilla I20 since November and I haven't seen another one yet!
Yeah that wing is ugly, feels aftermarket
We don’t get the fiesta ST in South Africa 😢
But reckon I’d take the i20n anyway…
I own a Polo and I am sure other owners would agree when you drive it feels like it has more to give but is being held back. Mine is going in for Stage 1 at some point.
That is because the engine has its max power at around 5k rpm and than loses quickly.
This is because the engine is build with economy in mind, not performance.
Many people confuse this engine with the Polo GTI engine, which it is not. It has completely different internals, different cylinder head, runs in budack cycle.
You probably get 20 - 30 more hp out of it. After that you would need hardware upgrades. Intercooler, cylinder head, new turbo.
Polo and Fiesta are 3 years old though, and are getting a new one soon. Almost 4 years even.
Yeah I wish he would say the year of the cars lol, not enough info
Yeh they now have a 7 speed Polo
yes, but still don't understand how they managed to make them so heavy.
Also a bummer the Fiesta is a 3cyl turbo.
The main reason why I hold on to my ST200 is the 1.6 4cyl turbo.
You still pay more than for the hyundai though
@@neovenom9833 Ever driven It? I drive one as well. A friend of mine drove the Mk7 and now has the Mk8, even he sais that its a massive improvement. More responsive, more power, better sound etc
6:30 : I may not be a professional but I am pretty sure Matt jumped that start
I was scrolling through the comments to find this one. He most definitely did. Such a typically Mat thing
Matt always jumps the start.
As usual
For a small engine the Fiesta keeps up quite well with the others its very impressive 👍🏻
Small?
The Hyundai only has 0,1 more. lol
And even with a bigger engine, less torque.
It has the best and probably most reliable engine of the 3. At least more reliable than the Polo engine which is 2L. On Hyundai, time will tell.
The Fiesta 1.5L Engine has been tested to be good for 300HP tuning with stock hardware inside. So there is not any problem.
Also 3 cylinder have more torque by nature.
@@dom3827 i20n over boost torque is never quoted in these tests like the fiestas it has a higher ovr boost torque also its weight ratio to torque is better
@@audie-cashstack-uk4881 The Fiesta has no overboost.
Wow, what a cool cars you drove there 👍👍👍
The dude in the Polo’s reaction time is DISMAL !!! Shocking dude!!! You need to get your launch game on !!!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who picked that up
@@sihlezenani9994 Agree, the Polo looked as if it was moving in slo mo.
@@georgeewart52 I think it would be nice if these guys could exchange cars in a race just to eliminate the driver theory.
VW group race: VW vs Skoda vs Audi vs Seat
Maybe when there is a difference in traction you should try changing the lanes to see if it's the tarmac 🤷♂️😃
Mat I test drive the i20N today at hyundai dealership but the car never had blind spot in the mirrors and I was told it doesn't come with it🤬 or the adjustable boot floor shelf to lower/move it up or down storage
Seriously one of the best drag races you've done in a long time ,I'm tired of seeing SUV drag races
Don't know where u have been for the last like month but they ain't done that many suv drag races they have had many high end cars...
What I'm more impressed is that the fact that VW Polo couldn't catch up even with a dual clutch box
@@Has7DCT just bogs down constantly. On a roll different story
@@Has7DCT that's true I wonder if dry if it would of been a different story
@@ttv.boggo1018 I watch all their videos and yes they do quit a bit of SUV drag races and I'm not the only that notice that.
There is no better feeling than downshifting and accelerating until the red line. The sound at that instance in any car is music to my ears🔥🔥
Try a superbike! Even better!
With electric and hydrogen tech at our footsteps I feel like these and other hot hatches will be an appreciating asset in the coming years!!
hydrogen already is history.
I love your rewiews !!!!
Wow. The i20N is almost as fast as the i30N on the quarter mile. Impressive pocket rocket.
I WAS IN SHOCK !!!!!!
And on a wet track!
Because FWD is limited by traction, not power.
200 hp is no joke...i know 2000 hp+ is what street legal cars can do nowadays but 200 hp is still pretty dope.
@@rdmz135 Yes, but in a drag mostly at launch. Ref. 1,850 hp Honda Civic sets FWD quarter-mile record.
With a quickest pass of 7.6 seconds and a highest terminal velocity of 201 mph. In a 20-year old Civic. With 350,000 miles.
That “shudder” on acceleration is like nails being pulled across a chalkboard in my ears! I hate it!
The wheel hop? Had the issue in my Mk8 Fiesta, needs a stiffer engine mount. About 75 quid from collins performance.
@@JackFowlesJF does it alter the driving characteristics in any way aside from the wheel hop?
@@xIcarus227 Tightens everything up, less momentum in the engine bay throwing it around. Braking better, handling better etc. Just feels more focused.
@@xIcarus227 You do get more vibrations inside (depending on the hardness of the bushings), especially when the AC is on, but it's definitely worth it. Wheel hop is reduced to a minimum, more grip when accelerating from stationary and the gear changes are also more crisp.
That polo start in the first race, you guys were moving before his wheels started moving.😂
Just purchased the i20 N it arrives in 3 - 4 months 😍😍
Never thought the time would come when the Hyundai makes me more excited than a Ford or Volkswagen hot hatch
Since it’s inception the i30N has been a much, much more exciting drivers car than the Golf GTI.
Times have changed. Back in the 70’s Japanese cars were thought of as junk cars.
@@JohnLee-db9zt you mean korean car?
@@limchuphang6400 No Japanese cars. There were no Korean cars in the US during the 70’s. Americans made fun of Japanese cars in the 70’s
@@JohnLee-db9zt True. Japanese cars were only existed in US when some brands like subaru / mitsubishi managed to get head to head in wrc with other European cars.
The fact that the hyundai and the fiesta sound better than some cars which are much faster with a bigger engine and 4 or 5 times the cost which is just crazy.
Should of got the swift sport in the line up aswell to see where it sits !!
Hyundia absolutely killing it with the N cars 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
The DCT with the most torque lost. Maybe traction and weight issues. Interesting world when you'd rather a have a Hyundai N Line than a VW GTI
And no lsd to aid power delivery shitty setup actually and when you floor the car in manual mode it will still downshift for you i hate it
It’s just „N”. N line is just a visual package.
This is not an n-line
fyi N-line is not sporty N lineup. Full N is the sport N.
Torque becames more of an enemy in wet conditions vs useful
By far one of the best drag races, pretty close results really enjoyed it
Maybe a rolling race from 10mph for front wheel drive cars in the damp/rain
You can see how much fun they had with these litten cars from the amount of races and tries they did
A manual feels good once in a while!
Feels great always. 😄👍
Never knew i would laugh after Matt saying whose the horniest
😷
With the brake test I'm wondering if the vw auto gearbox used a bit of. Engine breaking there enabling it to stop in a shorter distance
Hahaha the horn test just had me dying of laughter 🤣
Ooooo the drag race I was waiting for :D. Thank you Carwow 😃👍. Could you do a video on the updated fiesta? :)

the polo's dsg helps when it brakes, putting engine brake on. automatic gear boxes do that :D
Doesn't matter when you do a full emergency braking ... the brakes should be more than powerful enough to fully lock the wheels, more so on that wet surface. Probably the tires made a huge difference here.
The best brake is that when you don t lock weels. So engine brake takes away energy and abs is not used as hard. So that makes a shorter brake distance. Just try it and you will see, even in manual if you do it.
@@mgn1985 When you press hard the brake pedal as they do here, the ABS is the only thing that prevents the wheels from locking up. The combination of the tires + the ABS controller is the reason that Polo stoped so fast, this has nothing to do with the DSG or engine braking.
@@vladulescuadrian6080 you are right man, there is no Physics in braking, just abs.
@@mgn1985 There is a lot of physics in which the DSG is not involved ... I have both a DSG and a manual car and I know perfectly what are you referring to when DSG assists you during light braking, for example when you stop at a traffic light. But you do not seem to grasp is that at max braking the tires are the limitation, not the brakes.
I have the 1.6T in my veloster and it really wants a remap and porting to get the power all the way up to 6500rpm.
The rolling races are the true test of a cars performance & gearing.
The guy who's driving a polo🤦♂️💔his reaction time is poor
Yes that's true, especially in drag race 1 and 3
Maybe it’s the DSG😂😂
I’ll be honest mat that gear change from 5th to 2nd was quite impressive
Mat I'd love to see two. Of the same cars exactly same spec but one with auto box and the other with a manual
Hello Matt,
With all the videos, why don't you try to shuffle the lines when repeating the race?
It’s nice to see everyday cars.. more of these please
I'm the person who actually asked for this race.... Thanks Matt
much more interesting than watching robotized supercars driving themselves to the finish line 👍👍
also, much more informative for 'real world' future buyers

I like these kind of drag races more than the super/hyper care sometimes haha
When matt behind scenes and how he comes back from Finish to Start line XD
That Hyundai is gorgeous. Funny sounding horn, but other than that, it's my pick of the three.
Yeah, there are lots of aftermarket horns in the market.
Me too Hyundai 👌
That Hyundai is amazing for the money!
I’d like to see tests done with someone who knows how to down shift! Plus having a brake test when one car has to brake hard over paint is hardly a fair comparison.
Drag race: Ford Puma, Hyundai Kona, VW T-Roc, Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008.
Hyuandai’s dash looks like a Lambo. Great for Hyundai. Sad for Lambo.
I20 N is an amazing little car
Im watching first time your channel.
