Hyundai i800 (2008-2019) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
One of the few cars with room for eight	Poor fuel economy
Lots of luggage space	Interior quality could be better
Cheap to buy	Huge size makes finding a parking space a challenge

Quick Summary

The Hyundai i800 (2008-2019) is a spacious, van-based MPV designed for large families needing genuine eight-seat capacity, a rarity in its class. Based on the iLoad van, it's over five metres long, offering substantial interior room. Its standout feature is its practicality, boasting 851 litres of boot space even with all eight full-sized seats in use, and easy access via large sliding side doors. While the seating layout is somewhat inflexible and the interior materials feel dated, it excels in providing generous space for all occupants.

Driving dynamics are van-like but competent, with accurate steering and decent grip, though the ride can be bouncy. Visibility is excellent, aided by a commanding driving position and standard rear parking sensors. Power comes from a 2.5-litre diesel engine (134bhp or 168bhp), which can be noisy and strained when pushed, and offers modest acceleration (0-62mph in 14.4-17.6 seconds). Standard equipment is generous, including air-conditioning and rear parking sensors, but safety features are basic with only two airbags. Running costs include relatively poor fuel economy (around 31mpg) due to its size and engine, though it is generally cheaper to buy used than many rivals.

Best for: Large families needing genuine eight seats and significant luggage space, budget-conscious buyers, those prioritising practicality over premium feel.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising fuel efficiency, dynamic driving, high-end interior quality, easy parking in tight spaces, or advanced safety features.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the i800 if: You're a large family needing genuine eight seats and significant luggage space, you're a budget-conscious buyer, or you prioritise practicality over premium feel.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise fuel efficiency, dynamic driving, high-end interior quality, easy parking in tight spaces, or advanced safety features.

Competitive Position: The Hyundai i800 (2008-2019) carves out a niche as one of the few true eight-seater MPVs, offering exceptional practicality and value for money, especially as a used vehicle. While its van-based origins mean a less refined driving experience, dated interior, and higher fuel consumption compared to some rivals, its ability to comfortably transport eight adults and their luggage, combined with a lower purchase price, makes it a highly compelling option for specific buyers. It may lack the sophistication of a VW Caravelle or the quality of a Ford Tourneo Custom, but its honest, spacious, and affordable approach has much to appeal to large families on a budget.
