The Hyundai is a practical family car - that uses less than four litres/100km.
Hyundai has followed up its i10 Blue low-emissions model, introduced at the beginning of 2011, with another sub-100g/km CO2 model, the i20 Blue.
Rated at just 98g/km, it's even Bluer than its i10 stable-mate but, also like the i10 Blue, we don't think it's likely to come to South Africa.
Nevertheless - how do you get a practical family car under 100g/km of CO2?
The i20 Blue does it without interfering with the standard 66kW, 1.4 CRDi turbodiesel, using an "intelligent" stop/start function, low rolling-resistance and wind-cheating deflectors under the rear suspension and behind the rear wheels.
Hyundai claims that gives it 12 percent lower emissions (98 versus 111g/km) and 14 percent lower average fuel consumption (3.7 versus 4.2 litres/100km) than the "normal" i20, which equates to a tank range of more than 1200km - and, of course, it's immune to any penalties the Pollution Police have yet dreamed up!
It also looks after its occupants as well as the environment with 15" alloys, Bluetooth connectivity with voice recognition, power mirrors and windows, satellite audio controls on the steering wheel, audio input, aircon and remote central locking.
