For The 1.4 is the smallest engine, but it's smooth and impressively flexible. Even entry-level Classic trim has an impressive level of kit, with air-con, six airbags and stability control.

Against Choosing the most basic trim level - no matter how good value it is - means doing without some more luxurious bits of kit, such as alloy wheels and electric rear windows.

Hyundai i30 Hatchback

What Car? says

4 out of 5 stars

Cheap to buy and cheap to run, this is a fine car. Some may think it's worth finding the extra for the Comfort model, but we think this - the cheapest model - makes most sense.
