My i20N

Yeah, to be fair to the CanCoat it has beaded well and the only sign it had rained was some droplets on the roof - everything else had rolled off.

Does it really do 4.8s 0-62mph now? :eek:
Honestly, I don’t Know. I got that figure by asking Ai - I told it what the standard O-62 and hp and torque were and then asked it to extrapolate the O-62 with the uprated figures. Initially it gave an even better time but that was assuming four wheel drive and it became 4.8 once I specified front wheel drive. I suspect it’s more like 5 to 5.2 seconds though.

My car is coming up for its 4th service and 2nd MOT test - both are due at the same time and booked in today at my local Hyundai dealer.

I was driving today and, for once, I wasn’t listening to music and I was really struck by how loud my car is 🤣. I’m not complaining but the exhaust is loud and throaty - but even more than that is the sound of the turbo spooling and the air intake shrieking when I lift off the throttle. Then there is the extremely loud cracking sound the exhaust sometimes makes. I’ll have to do a recording for you guys because it is quite entertaining and extreme! 😁😝.

Watch this to see how astonishingly clever and complex the engine in our i20Ns is!


Now the presenter states that this engine is in the Sonata, but it’s also true that it’s in the i20N - but not any of the standard i20 models (not even the N Line). It’s also not a unique idea but it is the first time it has been achieved purely mechanically and not rely on electronics.
