Styling has rarely been a strong suit chez-Hyundai, and the Atoz probably represents its poorest effort yet. Most mini-cars have a kind of intrinsic cuteness about them, if only because they are small and cuddly. But not the runtish Atoz. Tall, narrow and teetering on its castor-like wheels, it looks like a storage box of the kind that you banish to the attic. What's it like to drive? Frankly, you barely notice amid your embarrassment. Perhaps sensing that it had birthed a mutant, Hyundai has produced a restyled version called the Amica, whose garish chromed grille is guaranteed to win its driver ridicule.
