The rear seats offer sufficient head room and feature a fold-down centre armrest with favorable sized The seat position is relatively high, providing good frontal visibility. Interior and Styling Good: The steering wheel is a funky four-spoke structure and the driver's seat features six-way power adjustment (except on the entry-level Active grade). The front grille is body coloured on the entry-level 'Active' grade and as a result (to our eyes) it doesn't appear as well integrated as the grey coloured versions on the mid and upper-grades.
Not so good: Considering the size of the vehicles 'footprint' the Hyundai ix35 is no lightweight design - tipping the scales between 1.6 & 1.8 tonnes (compare this to a medium family-sized wagon and you'll see that on average SUV's are definitely heavier creatures). Carverdict's Salute. The rear hatch holds a feature that could be called the 'mini duck tail' (Porsche 911 lovers get this). It is enhanced by the large hexagonal grille up-front which is a typical Hyundai style of spelling its presence. It makes into the list of the coolest Compact SUV's one can buy.
It also gets firm while riding over rough spaces THE REVIEW Design and Engineering Good: The first to feature the Hyundai brands 'Fluidic Sculpture' theme which arrived in February 2010. Not so Good: Hyundai ix35 SUV sports a rather heavy design with a petrol engine that gets noisy under hard acceleration. THE VERDICT Good: Modern & funky exterior PLUS a powerful-yet-frugal Turbo Diesel engine PLUS six-speed automatic gearbox PLUS an improved interior EQUALS strong value for money.
