Hyundai i20 hatchback - Practicality & boot space

The Hyundai i20 has interior space not far off a family hatchback, but the boot is small on most models

Practicality & boot space Rating

3.5 out of 5

Equipment and practicality have been two feathers in the i20's cap throughout its history, and that sort of remains the case here. The boot is on the small side but the interior is large enough for couples, or families with a child at a push.

Hyundai i20 interior space & storage

Most vehicles have grown in recent years, and when you consider that four six-foot tall adults can sit fairly comfortably in the i20, you could argue superminis can't really get much bigger without treading on the toes of family cars.

The impressive rear legroom will also come in very handy for parents with a bulky child seat, making it possible to fit it into the ISOFIX mounting points without having to slide the front seats all the way forwards.

Boot space

Boot space in the i20 is middle-of-the-road, with just 304 litres of capacity – around five litres smaller than the Vauxhall Corsa’s. There’s additional under-floor storage and a pocket to the side with velcro straps for smaller items. Fold the seats and the capacity increases to 1,205 litres – 87 more than in a Vauxhall Corsa.
