Hyundai Amica (00-03) - Review

Modelled closely on the Hyundai Atoz - the mini people carrier that it replaced - the Amica is cheap, cheerful and nippy around town. By no means a powerhouse, it is efficient at its job, only sips the fuel and it doesn’t have a bad equipment list either - especially on GSi versions.

The Amica is very narrow, so bigger adults will feel cramped, but the tall body design does give plenty of headroom and there is easily enough room in the back for the kids.
