You saw these pictures in India first on IndianAutosBlog.com!
For those who can’t wait to see the 2020 Hyundai i20 on the roads, here are some new spy shots from South Korea. The new hatchback is still a few months away from reaching showrooms.
Featuring an all-new emotional exterior and a surprisingly classier interior in a familiar shape, the 2020 Hyundai i20 is all set to take on the likes of Maruti Baleno, Tata Altroz, VW Polo and Renault Clio. The alloy wheels, probably 16-inch units, suggest that this particular 2020 Hyundai i20 is in Indian specification. This is for the first time that we're getting to see the next-gen Hyundai i20 in a light colour.
In addition to 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, the 2020 Hyundai i20 features full LED headlamps, front underbody spoiler, shark fin antenna, faux rear diffuser and LED tail lights connected via a full-width reflector strip on the outside. In Europe, even 17-inch alloy wheels will be available.
Interior highlights of the Mk3 Hyundai i20 include 10.25-inch customisable fully digital instrument cluster, 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bose premium audio system with eight speakers including a subwoofer and LED ambient lighting. The all-new model also packs Hyundai Bluelink Telematics for a plethora of connected car services.
