What should I look for in a used Hyundai i20N hatchback?

As with all cars, check for bodywork damage and kerbing on the wheels, and inspect the interior for signs of wear and tear. Every Hyundai comes with a five-year, unlimited mileage warranty and five years of UK roadside assistance – you'll get what's remaining of that with a used i20N.

The Hyundai i20 (in its regular small car form) was safety tested by Euro NCAP and awarded four out of a possible five stars. Safety equipment includes automatic emergency braking (AEB), lane assistance, traffic-sign recognition and e-Call emergency response.

What are the most common problems with a used Hyundai i20N hatchback?

The i20N doesn't have any recalls to its name. The regular i20 has just one, although that only applies to 2020 models and the N arrived in 2021.

Is a used Hyundai i20N hatchback reliable?

The i20N didn't appear in our latest What Car? Reliability Survey and neither did the regular i20 – it was too fresh on the market. As a brand, Hyundai ranked fifth out of 32 manufacturers, which is confidence inspiring to say the least.
