The Hyundai Click (also sold as the Hyundai Getz in most international markets, Hyundai Getz Prime in India, Hyundai TB in Japan^[1], Inokom Getz in Malaysia and Dodge Brisa in Venezuela) is a supermini car produced by the Hyundai Motor Company, sold in most of the world except the U.S. or Canada. It is available in three- and five-door hatchback body styles, and with a 4-speed automatic transmission or 5-speed manual transmission.

Despite the presence of its successor, the i20, the Click is still being sold worldwide; in some countries, both the Click and i20 are sold simultaneously.

Engines

At the Click's launch in 2002, 1.3 and 1.5-litre petrol or 1.5-litre turbodiesel engines were available. From 2004, a new 1.1 litre engine was introduced to the line and a 1.4 litre engine replaced the 1.3 litre. A 1.6 litre engine replaced the 1.5 litre. However, availability of engine options varies depending on market.

The 1.6 litre gasoline engine is unavailable in New Zealand, as well as some countries in Southeast Asia and South America.

• 1.1L SOHC engine 65 hp (48 kW) 0–100 km/h: 15.4 sec., top speed 159 km/h (99 mph)
• 1.4L DOHC engine 97 hp (72 kW) 0–100 km/h: 10.6 sec., top speed 176 km/h (109 mph)
• 1.6L DOHC engine 106 hp (79 kW) 0–100 km/h: 9.6 sec., top speed 184 km/h (114 mph)

2006 facelift

A facelift for the 2006 model saw the Click receiving a 4 cylinder 1.5 litre diesel option, upgraded dash and interior fascia and trim, new front and rear styling, driver and front passenger air bags. Many motorists have compared the Click's redesign to the visual appearance of the Peugeot 307. In the UK, air conditioning and side airbags were fitted to all models as standard equipment. This facelifted model, however, is not offered in Venezuela (where it is sold as the Dodge Brisa); instead, the local arm of Hyundai continues to sell the pre-2006 model.^[2]

Market

Trim levels

Trim levels in the UK for the Click are GSi, CDX and Sport, while in Australia and New Zealand, the trim levels are XD and XE.

A special trim level called the Cross features SUV design elements such as extended wheel arches, roof rack, raised suspension and larger wheels.^[3]

Dodge Brisa

In Venezuela, the Click is badge-engineered as the Dodge Brisa in its 1.3 litre, 4-speed manual transmission configuration. This new model replaces the Accent-based Brisa that debuted in that market in April 2002. As of 2007, Hyundai is marketing the Getz in Venezuela under the Hyundai brand, but continues to build the 1.3 litre model for the Brisa. To differentiate from the Brisa, the Venezuelan model retains its pre-2006 design.

Inokom Getz

In Malaysia, the Click is locally assembled as the Inokom Getz. The model offers both manual and automatic transmission with a single 1.4 litre petrol engine option.^[4]

Safety

In Australia, the 2002-04 Click was assessed in the 2006 Used Car Safety Ratings (UCSR) as providing "significantly worse than average" protection for its occupants in the event of a crash.^[5]

• Performance in Preventing Serious Injury to the Driver:
• Harm to Others: Average

Conversely, the car was awarded a respectable 4 stars (out of five) in its 2004 Euro NCAP and 2008 Australasian NCAP (ANCAP)^[6] crash tests. It turned in what Euro NCAP described as a "reasonably balanced performance" and "generally good" in-car protection for children. It was noted, however, that the design of the car did little to protect pedestrians.^[7]

Euro NCAP

• Adult Occupant: , score 25
• Child Occupant: , score 37
• Pedestrian: , score 5

ANCAP

• Overall Evaluation: , score 25.35 out of 37

Reflecting market priorities and price point control, some safety equipment is either unavailable or available only as extra-cost options on some models in some markets. The South African and Philippine market versions, for example, are not available with side airbags at any price and make do without a rear fog light or a third three-point seatbelt on the rear seat. In the Philippines and South America, the Click is not fitted with airbags or ABS brakes as standard equipment.

Awards

• Australia's Best Small Car in 2003 and 2005.
• Scottish Small Car of the Year award in 2003.
• UK What Car? Magazine Budget Car of the Year in 2003.
• Budget car champion on the UK motoring programme Fifth Gear in 2003.
• Denmark's Best Seller of 2003 award.
• Portuguese Car of the Year for 2004 (1.5 CRDI).

Replacement

In late 2008 or early 2009, the Click is to be replaced by the new i20. A fully electric model will also be available in New Zealand from the end of 2008.

In the India and Australasia markets, as well as most of Europe, the Click will co-exist with the i20 for the time being, as it is still popular while the i20 will be marketed in a higher price range. The i20 will, however, effectively replace the Accent 3-door hatchback in Australia.

As the i20 is currently not being offered in South Korea and Japan, the Click continues to be sold in those markets.
