Hyundai ix20 cars

What types of used Hyundai ix20 cars are there?

The Hyundai ix20 is a compact yet reasonable tall supermini-sized car on the outside that offers stacks of interior space and a well-packaged 440-litre boot, which is more than you’d get in most family hatchbacks.

A selection of trims vary from offering budget-friendly essentials to a few more luxuries, but all versions of the ix20 are built to a high quality.

Underneath, the ix20 sits on the same platform as the Kia Venga, which adds to its reliability and overall durable appeal.

Hyundai ix20 history

Hyundai sold the ix20 between 2010 and 2019, and while it did indirectly replace a similar MPV, there was no direct successor.

> First-generation Hyundai ix20 (2010) - Modern-looking and unoffensive compact MPV

> Facelifted Hyundai ix20 (2015) - Improvements to quality, trim levels and engines

What features does the Hyundai ix20 have?

The interior of a used Hyundai ix20 has plenty of nifty storage areas to put bottles, keys, phones, wallets etc, and the controls inside the cabin all work very well.

The same goes for the rear, where the storage options continue. There’s a surprising amount of room for backseat passengers in this small MPV, meaning you shouldn’t have any issues carrying five people in your ix20.

All models come with the basics, like air-conditioning and Bluetooth connectivity, but it’s worth scouting out an upgraded Nav model with its upgraded infotainment system.

Higher-spec models, which are very affordable, get parking sensors, a reversing camera and other comforts to make living with the car easier.

Is the Hyundai ix20 reliable?

Hyundai has a reputation for building reliable cars, and although the ix20 is a fairly old car now, it still benefits from that quality manufacturing. It also shares many parts with the Kia Venga, as well as a number of other Hyundai and Kia cars, which helps to improve overall quality.

How much does the Hyundai ix20 cost to run?

A Hyundai ix20 for sale is primarily geared toward offering a practical and spacious ride, so its engines blend efficiency with good around-town performance. You shouldn’t need to pay more than you would in a hatchback, and it’s also a model that sits in low insurance groups.

Who is the Hyundai ix20 suitable for?

A used Hyundai ix20 for sale is a great pick for someone who needs the extra practicality of a bigger car, but prefers to drive smaller models. Because of its high ride height and ease of access, it’s also one worth considering for older drivers.

Similarly practical yet compact models include the Nissan Note, Ford B-Max and Kia Venga.
