Thread: Hyundai iGen i20 Petrol Vs Volkswagen Polo Petrol

I was going to buy Volkswagen polo petrol but before I could go and book this car someone told me that instead of going for Volkswagen Polo you should go for Hyundai iGen i20 Petrol. And the person who told me has already got both this cars in his family so I think he is making some kind of sense by saying this. So I would like to take an opinion from all garagian. About which car I should buy? Basically I am looking for a good petrol hatchback car.

New Hyundai iGen i20 Petrol Dimensions

* Length = 3995mm
* Width = 1710mm
* Height = 1505mm
* Wheelbase = 2525mm

Volkswagen Polo Petrol Dimensions:

* Length: 3970mm
* Width: 1682mm
* Height: 1453mm
* Wheelbase: 2456mm

Now if you check out both the Dimension of these cars you will come to know that Hyundai iGen i20 is bigger in all aspects than that of Volkswagen Polo. And because of which you can get more boot space and you will be more comfortable then in Volkswagen Polo Petrol.

As I give this advice to everyone who asks me which car to go with I always tell them to go and take a test drive with your full family so that you will be able to know the boot space is it comfortable or not, you can also come to know the interior and exterior looks. After that you can also come to know the pickup of the car and many more things so in shot if you go and take the test drive you will come to know 80 percent of the car.
