The Hyundai Bayon is the small crossover of the family — taller stance, higher driving position and a roomier boot for weekend kit, while the Hyundai i20 is the cheeky hatchback that feels nimbler, sharper and more engaging on twisty roads. Pick the Bayon for practicality and SUV vibes, pick the …

The VW ID.4 and VW ID.5 are essentially twins under the skin—same motors, batteries and calm, quiet manners—but the ID.5 trades the ID.4’s family-friendly boxiness for a sleeker coupe roof and a tad more curbside drama. If you value rear headroom, visibility and a friendlier price, go ID.4; if …

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.
