NEW I20N Hybrid!

Maybe from the soft suspension, very high mass center, soft ARB, soft jelly bushings all around, and of course the overall car height.

There is to much weight transfer that you feel in the whole body.

Not heavy to drive, feels heavy while driving.

Instead of 1230-1260kg it feels more like a 1400kg car. But with lighter wheels it's better.

Bro if you think the i20n feels heavy then you should try the i30n that’s a tank in comparison 😂✌️

I have driven an i30N on well known road track and it's very similar but 1 or 2 classes higher in weight feeling. Miles away from the weight feeling of a Megane 3 RS Cup or EVO9. Both i20 and i30 feel a lot heavier, than you would suggest from their fake cross weights.

dont compare it to a suzuki swift?

perhaps your wording "feels heavy" is not something that others relate to without the same experience. If you could define the feeling better then it might make more sense to the rest of us.
 
How else could I define it, as I already did?

Drive or have driven other performance cars that are lighter then Hyundai's and officially heavier then you got it.

I’ve driven ‘performance cars’ that are both heavier and lighter than the i20N and honestly I don’t agree that it feels heavy. It’s not a super light by any means but I don’t think it feels heavy either.

But…. I accept my car isn’t very standard these days and does have lighter wheels which I agree make quite a big difference (more than I expected). I would like the steering to have more feel but electric is all you get these days and at least it’s not as numb as that of a Golf 🤣.

I agree with the lighter wheels as well and only use N custom with steering in max. light which also helps a lot.
 
On the roads I drive I find that light steering is a bit too easily deflected at speed and so I use the medium setting. Having said that I need to try it again 👍.
 
The new i20 N, if it materialises, looks like the comeback no one gives two hoots about. A hybrid and an auto only? Man, what an improvement huh.
Let us cross all of our fingers what we don't end up with the same situation as later '21, when a shed load of PCPers joined all dizzy, snappy and aggressive in anticipation of their 'latest' best car ever, only to drive into the forum sunset once their latest PCP novelty car wore off.
 

buried within this article, are, albeit a person's guesswork, but highlights the joke the new i20 N might be (f it happens).
Europe talk got stuff on a twin-motor hybrid transmission and maybe even 'stimulating' gear changes lol What progress huh :) Playstation gear shifts like that Ionic 5N transportation pod, Xbox car,.
It's probably a good idea if the i20 N don't come back in such a form. Even the pcp heros won't be getting all worked up, trying to get people banned and melting down left, right and centre at anyone daring to criticise this version 🤣
