- A 1.2-liter, 4 cylinder petrol engine which is the most economical option which can clock 83bhp & 113Nm torque.
Design:
The design identity of the 2020 Hyundai i20 is called sensuous sportiness which indeed is very sporty with its dual tone body. While the front and sides of the car is more dynamic and edgy the rear looks wider-thanks to the combination tail lights running across the breadth of the hatch. The front of the car looks very sharp & focused with those wide LED DRLs & at the back the angular Z shaped LED tail lights looks rather stunning, the car comes with alloy wheels which is again very prominent & leaves a strong impression on the passersby.
The interior of the car compliments the overall outside makeover of the car and continues to speak the same sporty design language. The digital information cluster & infotainment cluster looks modern & big for that effortless ease of navigation & as usual the car may come loaded with features like wireless charging, 6 airbags, ABS, Cruise control, Bose speakers & much more.
Expected Price of Hyundai i20:
The expected base variant will cost around Rs. 5.5 Lakhs & will go up to Rs. 8.5 lakhs for the top end diesel variant (ex- showroom) & the on-road price will vary from state to state in India.
The Hyundai i20 since its inception has received phenomenal response from the Indian market & with the upcoming launch of its third-gen soon, we will see if the legacy continues.
