The Hyundai i20N -Line ek sts at the confluence of practicality and thrillinducing fun. We took it to some roads in Uttarakhand that are a driver's paradise, 1800 metres above sea above sea level

The Thrill Factor

We will be celebrating our 25th anniversary in January 2024, and in a run-up to this landmark moment, we will share with you some unique stories that capture the essence of Motoring World, through the remainder of this year. To start things off, we found ourselves in a Hyundai i20 N-Line, searching for some grininducing motoring fun.

Away from the bustle of onlookers near the low stone railings of the highway overlooking the sangam at Dev Prayag, we were sitting inside said Hyundai i20 N-Line. Parked on an empty bridge, and with a clear view of the confluence of the Bhagirathi and Alaknanda rivers that make the mighty Ganga, we were just soaking up the moment. We were around 300 km from Delhi, but more importantly, we were about to head back to our hotel, located about 32 kilometres away in a different direction and in these 32 kilometres lies the essence of this story.

When the opportunity arose to talk about the thrill that driving great cars brings, the i20 N-Line was the ideal choice.

HISTORY CHANNEL

When I'm around old motorcycles, I often find myself wondering what it must've been like to be born in an earlier time. Wondering, mind you, not wishing. I wonder what it was like when mankind invented the motorcycle. I wouldn't want to get anywhere near the first motorcycle, the Daimler Reitwagen (the word means 'riding car', stupidly enough), made by German inventors Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in 1885. To quote Melissa Holbrook Pierson, 'The first motorcycle looks like an instrument of torture.' And something that might cause an explosion uncomfortably close to one's nether regions. Right after it's shaken loose every healed bone in one's body.
