Hyundai Bayon (2021-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Striking and unusual design	Uninspired interior design
Spacious and comfortable cabin	Lacks the sliding rear seats fitted to many rivals
Long warranty	Not as well equipped as the Hyundai Kona

Quick Summary

The Hyundai Bayon (2021-present) is a compact SUV that stands out from the crowd with its radical, striking styling. Its snub nose with high-mounted running lights, angular side profile, and boomerang-style rear lights ensure it catches the eye. However, the interior is less impressive, sharing its dashboard with the Hyundai i20 hatchback and featuring cheap-feeling, shiny plastics. Despite this, the cabin is roomy with plenty of headroom and legroom, though boot space is modest and rear seats don't slide like some rivals.

The Bayon offers two 1.0-litre turbo T-GDi petrol engines with 48-volt mild hybrid technology: 99bhp and 118bhp variants, available with six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearboxes. The 118bhp version is more engaging, delivering better mid-range punch. Surprisingly, the Bayon is genuinely fun to drive, with responsive steering, good grip, and minimal body lean in corners, whilst maintaining a comfortable ride. Real-world fuel economy ranges from 45-50mpg, and Hyundai's competitive servicing costs and metal timing chain (no replacement needed) keep running costs low. With competitive pricing, a long warranty, and excellent reliability reputation, the Bayon represents a well-rounded package for budget-conscious buyers.

Best for: Buyers seeking a distinctive compact SUV with spacious, comfortable accommodation, good driving dynamics, and low running costs, particularly those valuing Hyundai's warranty and reliability.

Not ideal for: Those prioritising premium interior quality, maximum boot space, or sliding rear seats for versatility, or buyers wanting the higher equipment levels of the Hyundai Kona.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Bayon if: You want a distinctive compact SUV with spacious, comfortable accommodation, engaging driving dynamics, and low running costs, and value Hyundai's warranty and reliability reputation.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise premium interior quality, maximum boot space, sliding rear seats for versatility, or the higher equipment levels of the Hyundai Kona.

Competitive Position: The Hyundai Bayon (2021-present) is a compelling choice in the compact SUV segment, offering striking design, genuine driving enjoyment, and excellent value. Whilst rivals like the Renault Captur and Volkswagen T-Cross may offer smarter interiors and more premium feel, the Bayon's spacious cabin, responsive handling, and Hyundai's competitive pricing, long warranty, and reliability reputation make it a well-rounded package. It delivers more driving engagement than most supermini-sized SUVs, making it an unexpected pleasure for those seeking both practicality and fun.
