A proper Top Gear hero. Seriously over-delivers on the underpromising price..
Pros Cheap, but also value. Looks good. Is very capable
Cons Lacks safety kit; so slow that this might not actually matter
Pros Very cheap to buy Roomy cabin Efficient engines
Cons Feels pretty basic inside Doesn't handle all that well Disappointing safety score
PROS Really sharp infotainment and instrument display Gutsy little engine with all-wheel drive Looks properly distinctive without becoming ugly
CONS It's a bit pricey This car's DCT had a harsh upshift from first into second Not particularly spacious inside for a crossover
Hyundai's compact SUV received the sporty N-Line treatment in its 2021 update. Is it a good choice for those who can’t stretch to the full-fat Kona N?
PROS Engine’s mid-range performance Well-judged ride/handling balance Comfortable seats front and rear
CONS Poor value compared with i30 N-Lines Less boot and cabin space than i30 Gearbox calibration Intrusive lane-keep system 10,000km service intervals
