Following its world premiere at the Paris Auto Show last month, the second-generation Hyundai i20 will soon arrive in European dealerships to challenge established names like the Ford Fiesta and VW Polo.

WhatCar magazine invited five of its readers, among whom there were Hyundai owners (including i20), to take a look at the new supermini and give their verdict. There was a unanimous view that the i20’s styling is a significant improvement over the previous model, and readers also agreed that the interior boasts more quality and style than before.

The Hyundai i20 convinced readers also in terms of practicality, with four of the five men questioned giving it an overall rating of at least four stars (of a total of five). One of the readers gave it three stars though. Head down to see how each reviewer justified his rating.
