In the second of our hot hatchback shootouts, we determine the best supermini-sized contenders, and none disappoint -
At a shade under £29,000 for the ST Edition and just over £30,000 for this non-Circuit Pack GR Yaris, they represent the toughest of adversaries for the £24,995 i20 N. But if the Hyundai can cut it in this company we’ll know it’s a cracker. Fellow contributing ed John Barker and myself are certainly looking forward to finding out, in what promises to be a proper dust-up.
By the time I rendezvous with the boys I’m a big fan and can’t wait to see how it compares, though sizing up the opposition suggests it’s going to be a real tussle. Both the Fiesta and Yaris are familiar faces and formidable performers. As ever theis the outlier on account of its rally-bred all-wheel-drive concept.
The i20 is also very ready to cock an inside wheel – always a good sign in my book – and has a tremendous sense of being on its nose as you turn in. It’s a little bit naughty, egging you on without being overbearing. And when you really do throw it down the road it revels in operating just at the tipping point of instability without actually giving you a scare.
At low speeds you can hear faint clonks and clicks from the suspension. If you’re not used to cars running coilovers this might come as a surprise, but just think of it as the car interlacing its fingers and cracking a few of its knuckles before going on with the job at hand.
was a thrill and it also had 200 turbocharged bhp and weighed around 1200kg. The difference is that the power delivery of our modern trio is broad and generous, not the firework-likeof the Cossie. Also, the grip of current tyres is significantly better than the 205/50 R15 Dunlop D40s of the Sierra, so the pace these three can carry is astonishing. I doubt you could go any faster along here in anything else.
