Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Hyundai i20
- Looks like a youth friendly hatchback which never fails to grab attention
- Space: Can seat three people at the back in comfort
Toyota Etios Liva
- Appreciable standard safety features – dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD, front seat belts with pre-tensioners, ISOFIX child seat mounts and three-point seatbelt for the rear middle passenger.
- The new front bumper along with the discontinued Etios Liva TRD Sportivo-borrowed gunmetal alloy wheels makes it look a little younger.
- Welcome additions such as electrically foldable ORVMS, three removable rear headrests, improved instrument cluster, and others.
- Spacious cabin with absolutely flat rear floor.
- Frugal and refined 1.4-litre diesel engine.
- Toyota’s unmatched reliability and hassle-free ownership.

Hyundai i20
- Single NA petrol engine: No option of diesel and turbo-petrol limited to N Line version
- Stiff ride quality: Could be more comfortable for a family car
Toyota Etios Liva
- Lacklustre styling. The current facelift does uplift the aesthetics, but the competitors look more modern and sportier.
- Missing features such as push button start-stop, touchscreen infotainment system, rear parking camera and others.
- Toyota has improved visible signs of costing cutting over several updates, but it still looks low-rent.
