Hyundai Amica (00-03) - Review

Review by Parkers on
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.

Running costs

The Amica uses little fuel, and the low insurance groupings make it an attractive option. It is competitively priced with good equipment for such a small, cheap car - even the entry level Si has comforts such as electric windows - while the GSi and revamped Si models have big car features such as power steering.
