Detailed analysis of the Hyundai i20 Active 1.0 T-GDI 100 CV Tecno (2016-2017)
General description
The 2016 Hyundai i20 Active is much more than a simple utility car. It's a statement of intent, a car that takes the excellent base of the i20 and injects it with an adventurous and bold spirit. With its 101-horsepower 1.0 T-GDI engine, it not only promises a robust appearance but also a heart full of life to conquer both the city and weekend getaways.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the i20 Active feels surprisingly energetic. The small turbocharged three-cylinder engine pushes decisively from low revs, providing an agility that brings a smile to your face at every traffic light. Its lightness and precise steering make it very fun to drive on winding roads, while the slightly raised suspension absorbs road imperfections with a comfort that is appreciated in daily life. It's a car that invites you to drive, to feel the road in a direct and pleasant way.
Design and aesthetics
Its aesthetics are its main calling card. The black plastic body protectors, roof rails, and increased ground clearance give it an imposing, off-road presence that instantly sets it apart. It's not an off-roader, but its design evokes freedom and escape. Inside, Hyundai's functionality is combined with well-utilized space and materials that convey a sense of durability and good craftsmanship, creating a welcoming cabin ready for adventure.
Technology and features
Under its adventurous skin, the i20 Active Tecno is a car of its time. The direct-injection turbo engine is a small gem of efficiency, achieving very low consumption without sacrificing verve. The Stop & Start system contributes to city economy, and although it's not a cutting-edge technological marvel, the Tecno version's equipment was more than adequate, offering a functional infotainment system and the necessary comforts to make every journey easier and more enjoyable.
Competition
At the time, the i20 Active faced competition that also played the crossover aesthetic card. Models like the Volkswagen CrossPolo or the Dacia Sandero Stepway were its most direct rivals, cars that offered a similar concept of a utility vehicle in an explorer's outfit. It also competed with the first urban SUVs like the Renault Captur, although the Hyundai maintained a purer essence of an agile and manageable passenger car.
Conclusion
The Hyundai i20 Active is a car with a captivating dual soul. It is the perfect companion for those who seek the efficiency and practicality of an i20 but long for a design with more character and personality. It is an honest, fun-to-drive vehicle with an aesthetic that inspires you to break from the routine. A smart and passionate purchase for those who see a small adventure in every journey.
