I have tried both and the bayon seems quite correct, but I liked the c3 aircross better in all aspects. c3 seemed more car in performance and more enjoyable. also both are good.
Still banging on about "hard, scratchy plastics...". As long as the thing feels solid and the build quality is good - who cares ? What cars at this price tag don't have uniform plastic across the interior front ?
You don't drive feeling to plastics as you travel along,so does it matter!Bit like door pockets won't fit 2L bottle of water,who carries it anyway.See reviews,but buy a car on what matters to you!
I fully agree. You're not making love to the thing. Who gets into their car and starts touching and caressing the dashboard? Also, give me the Bayon any day!
As someone that used to valet new Hyundai's I used to think that they felt a little cheap and basic inside, even though they are not cheap, but the new tuscon is a different story
I pick Hyundai Bayon up!☺️ It's my first car and i ordered trend line 120HP 4 days ago☺️. At first sight just the design of Bayon attacked me, then beautiful interior and infotainment and Hyundai Safety.
We just bought Hyundai Bayon this past week after our prevous car Opel Meriva 2004 (Vaxhaul in the UK) suddenly broke down. Both of these cars look great, but Bayon is smaller and it will barely squeeze into our garage, so C3 Aircorss wouldn't fit. These days it's hard to find a relatively small car that allows high sitting position.
I was wondering could you do a group test of the Toyota Yaris Cross against rivals like the Ford Puma and Nissan Juke. Toyota is never involved in group tests, it’s not fair that Toyota is always out of these group tests.
As Clarkson already proved in his very thorough and practical test, the Aircross can go faster than itself, can tow Boaty Mcboatface, fit a horse in its boot, seat all of Angelina Jolies children, better than the French police and can conquer Italy. So, it's clearly the better car here, in fact the best car in the world;
Between the pair, The Hyundai Bayon wins for me, it's better to drive and has better entertainment system, it looks better than the Hyundai Venue too in my opinion, however if I had to pick a small SUV the Ford Puma makes more sense for me.
So the Citroen is taller but has less headroom, plus it's competitors have better ride and seat comfort? Citroen really have dropped the ball if that's the case. Can't say I would buy either of these though, although forced to choose it would be the Hyundai, much better warranty for a start I believe.
Sorry, Hyundai, but Rebecca would be my top choice. I expect to see the second choice Bayon on the other side of the pond as the 2023 Kona. Renault was tossed out of the states 50 years ago, due to horrible reliability. Their alliance with Nissan and Mitsubishi has done nothing for either one here. In the long term, you cousins would be much better off spending a few euros or pounds extra each month on the Bayon.👍
We don't have the Bayon in Australia, however, it seems similar to what we call a Kona. The lower riding position makes it indistinguishable from a hatchback. I prefer their Venue.
J'ai une Hyundai Bayon 1.0l t-gdi mhev 7DCT sky. Il y a quelques jours une Citroën C3 Aircross a essayé de me doubler sur une autoroute... en vain, elle n'est jamais parvenu.
Can’t understand why these car reviews do not mention how they drive at night and what the lights are like. For example the Citroen has LED headlights and the Hyundai Halogen and if anything like my Hyundai Kona dipped headlights they will awful.
I have entered both. I am a guy of small height as well as my wife and the i20 still felt crammed and short in height. When we entered the Bayon I personally had the feeling of a much larger car. When I sat on the rear passenger seats, I thought I was on a bus. It's a deceptively small car with huge interior
what a poor review from the start, trying so hard to make the c3 look as being the better option, but you cant find any angle but how the seats look, quite pathetic
I've just ordered the premium Bayon on motability apparently there's a 6 mths but I believe worth the wait. If you want an interior pop of colour then you can change the ambient lightning in the Bayon.
Boy oh boy, you really tried hard to give the nod to Citroen here, didn't you? :) Sorry to throw the one argument being employed repeatedly against the Hyundai here out the window, but there is a bi-color interior option available for the Bayon. There you go - no more dour feelings - enjoy the way-more-modern Korean option. ;)
What about the Hyundai's different driving modes which alter the overall feel and handling? I don't understand why this was neglected in the video. It makes me wonder what you omit from your other videos
Based on style I would go for the C3. It's illegal to use a mobile phone whilst driving yet O.K to use touch screens whilst driving? I would prefer dials for radio and heater plus a C.D player
The c3 has a terrible clutch and gearbox that is incredibly vague and downright unpleasant. Love Kia/Hyundai’s new styling efferts across the range as the old one were ripping off Ford bigtime
I don't like any but I would get the Citröen, have one for 13 years and has served me well, have tried the C5 Aircross and enjoyed it a lot and the bayon... Well, sorry to say but that back looks wrong.
Hyundai to me no contest. However these small SUV's are impractical cars, space inside is a joke. You'll be more comfortable in a Honda Jazz or Nissan Note.
Bit of a sweeping statement there. Im 6'2 and drove an old Corsa for 6 years. Had no problems at all with space or practicality. It all depends on the person.
