Definitely the Hyundai Bayon — the most important thing is the simply designed 1.2 MPI four-cylinder engine, 84 hp, adapted for LPG and cheap to repair, beautiful looks, a five-year warranty, cheaper to buy, and performance completely sufficient for a senior. A four-cylinder engine runs smoother and is better refined. I will buy this car in December 2026 at the Hyundai dealership in Toruń.

I bought the HUNDAY BAYON one month ago.
600 km later, first small problem — the gauge stopped working.
I have an appointment set for 15 days from now. That said, it’s a real pleasure to drive: very smooth, lively acceleration, comfortable and perfect visibility. 800 km on the clock, but I’ve noticed city fuel consumption is much higher than advertised — 9.7 litres/100 km, mostly urban driving.

Sensible and practical car. Drives okay. Low fuel consumption in summer. Good interior and cargo space. Interior feels cheap. Noisy in some situations. Sufficient ground clearance even for poor roads.

If the Bigster comes as a Hybrid 4x4 G150 automatic, it’s an interesting car. I’m currently leasing a Sandero Stepway running on LPG and will return it in November. Unfortunately that engine option isn’t offered in the Jogger, which makes the Bigster appealing to me. We’re fans of LPG — and now even with an automatic.
