What to look for in a Hyundai Amica?

When did the Hyundai Amica get an automatic transmission?
In summer 2000, a four-speed automatic replaced the three speed automatic gearbox, but otherwise the range has remained largely unchanged. At the same time, the Amica’s progenitor, the Atoz disappeared from Hyundai’s price lists.
Is the GSI GSI the same as the Amica?

What’s the top speed of an Audi Amica?
Top speeds are 91mph for the manual and 86mph for the automatic but all of this is rather missing the point. The Amica is designed for use in busy towns and cities where the chance to exceed 30mph rarely presents itself and speeds of over 60mph are the stuff of legend.

What kind of transmission does an amica have?
Aimed as it was at first time buyers and mothers with children looking for a second or third car, the Amica stressed a friendly face, light, easy controls and more than a nod toward urban practicality. In summer 2000, a four-speed automatic replaced the three speed automatic gearbox, but otherwise the range has remained largely unchanged.
