HYUNDAI ix35 · photos, packages and modifications

When you consider about the Hyundai ix35 crossover model, it is treated as the sister car to the model i30 hatchback and it shares many of its parts with the other model. Even though it was treated as the direct competition to the hugely-successful Nissan Qashqai model, because of the 100 mm extra length it offers more and efficient interior room compared to the Nissan model. Turning out the heads would probably become as guaranteed one with the sharp styling. It gets comfortable drive on long trips because of the soft suspension and available high seating position, which would offer the great visibility around town. It is available as two or four-wheel drive along with the choices of 1.7 and 2.0 liter diesel engines and 1.6 liter petrol engine. The configuration of ix35 is treated as the one to suit with most needs.

When you consider about the fluidic sculpture design language of Hyundai, it would probably provide out the plenty of road performance through the ix35 as distinctive one. The hexagonal grille of the Kia is used in the striking front end along with the heavily sculpted bonnet, tailgate and flanks. It becomes as equal to mainstream manufacturers including Ford and Peugeot because of the attractive and quality interior design. The 17-inch alloy wheels have been got by the base spec style models and the flagship premium cars are available with the 18-inch rims.

The ix35 is treated as the one with effortless cruiser and the top-spec 134 bhp 4×4 2.0 CRDi diesel along with plenty of overtaking ability as the best and reserved one. But, it might be treated as the expensive one in most of the case. Even though 1.6 liter petrol is the cheapest option with underpowered feeling, it is always efficient to go with the 114 bhp CRDi engine available with good compromise. It has the fair bit of body roll in corners along with the light steering that would provide the high-riding attitude. But, it can be able to provide comfortable ride even on the poor surfaces through the payoff option. This is a car designed for the purpose of family with cruising without any doubts, in which the luggage can be placed on board rather than getting through the twisting B roads.

In the Euro NCAP crash test, full five-stars are scored by the ix53 along with the 90 percent rating for adult protection and 88 percent for the child protection in a better way. There are no major calls regarding the ix35 in the case of reliability. Most of the components of ix35 are derived from the i30 hatchback, which would probably provide it with the opportunity to get the overall prize in 2010 Driver Power survey. An impressive 7th position was grabbed by Hyundai in 2012 survey and all new cars those come with an unlimited mileage warranty of five-year. The ix35 scores high because of the 591 liter boot capacity, which would probably be expanded into a massive 1,436 liter when all the seats are folded down. This capacity is significantly more compared to the Nissan Qashqai. There are plenty of cubby holes dotted around the cabin along with the glovebox as generously sized according to the expectation. It has relatively high loading lip, but the shape is treated as the wide one and it shaped with the wheel arches as squared-off one. In the case of traction lost, the four-wheel drive system can be used. But, it is necessary to add another string with the bow of ix35 in the case of tricky weather conditions to manage the driving as the best.
