    Can you please guide me on how to tune my Hyundai i20’s suspensions for a sportier drive?

    AAA: Before you go through with an expensive modification like changing the suspension and lose your warranty, we suggest that you take a look at your car’s tyres and swap the OE rubber for a more performance-oriented option. With the right tyres, handling can improve considerably without making any other mechanical changes. You can choose between Michelin XM1, Yokohama A-Drive or BF Goodrich g-force Sport as upgrades. But if a suspension upgrade is what you seek, there aren’t any off the shelf aftermarket choices i20 suspension that we know of. But you can try contacting Mumbai-based N1 Racing on 022-24364197, Bangalore-based Methods Automotive on 080-22217879 and Red Rooster Performance on 080-43408899. Between them, they cover the largest selection of aftermarket suspension in India and it is possible that one of them may be able to order a one-off custom set for the i20 or have a relatively less-known aftermarket option imported from somewhere in South East Asia to suit your requirements.

    The Mahindra XUV 300 facelift will be called the XUV 3XO. Should more brands rename models for facelifts?

    Yes, it could give new life to a slow-selling car

    Yes, but only if there are significant changes

    No, it's confusing and dilutes the brand name
