It’s a tough world out there for light cars. Competing constantly to capture the eye of first-time buyers and prove they are the best small car. The Hyundai i20 Active is amongst these and uses its design to draw customers in. The design is at neither end of the extreme scale and the shape consists [...]

2010 Hyundai i45
August 30th, 2010
Jeremy Dubbed the ‘Camry Killer’ by some, the new Hyundai i45 is just another warmly welcomed addition to the automotive juggernaut’s increasingly improving lineup. The i45 is the brand’s latest creation and is predicted to sell like hot cakes. Even buyers who haven’t previously considered the brand as a ‘blue chip’ alternative will certainly find the [...]
2010 Hyundai i20
August 30th, 2010
Jeremy The new Hyundai i20 may not be perfect, but it’s sure to sell like a treat. Its small, cute and on par with the brand’s recently improved standards and value for money philosophy. The Korean automaker juggernaut have just launched their third model to the Australian market for this year, and like its next of [...]
2010 Hyundai ix35 Range
August 2nd, 2010
Jeremy Hyundai has recently broken from its traditionally substandard image and delivered an age of better looking, better to drive models. Though it isn’t the dux of the class, and given you are willing to overlook a few flaws, the ix35 is in keeping with this deviation. The ix35 is undoubtedly in keeping with the brand’s [...]
2010 Hyundai Sonata
July 30th, 2010
Jeremy With an original (if slightly retro) design, quality engineering and manufacture, and a price that won’t be laughed out of court by too many of you, a good case can be made for the Hyundai Sonata being one of the top all-round performers in its class. The smooth 2.4 litre and 3.3 litre engines are [...]
2010 Hyundai i30
May 25th, 2010
Jeremy We know, we know. Hyundai makes cars that aren’t worth a second look. But if you could just take a longer look at the i30, you’d see that with a 4.9L/100km consumption in diesel form with a stick, or 7.7L/km combined consumption in our i30cw tester, you could go for ages without ever hearing a [...]
2010 Hyundai Getz
May 25th, 2010
Jeremy Anointed Australia’s best small car in both 2003 and 2005, and widely heralded as the most affordable to own and run in the country, the Hyundai Getz has by now firmly established itself towards the top of its particular tree. Looking at it, it’s easy to see why it might have picked up such a [...]

2010 Hyundai Elantra
April 22nd, 2010
Jeremy It is what it is. Such a statement would seem to write off the Hyundai Elantra, which isn’t fair. We’re not trying to be daft. For a smaller mid-size sedan that offers a pleasant exterior and healthy list of standard items, the Elantra does well in comparison with its competitors. It just doesn’t do anything [...]
2010 Hyundai iLoad
April 15th, 2010
Jeremy The Hyundai iLoad’s forerunners in the i-Series have effected a perceptible cognitive shift in the way that the popular press and, by extension, the driving public consider the formerly slovenly white van. No more is it fair to generalise and sound off about boring driving dynamics, dodgily introduced safety measures and mediocre performance – it [...]
