The 2020 Hyundai i20 is a major step up from its predecessor in every aspect. It features totally revised styling. It imparts a bolder and futuristic look to the car. The front end flaunts the parametric jewel pattern grille along with the new set of LED projector headlamps. This combination ensures that a balance between sportiness and elegance is maintained.
The side profile of the new Hyundai i20 is kept busy by the gorgeous diamond-cut alloy wheels. Also, the chrome beltline helps the car to keep the premium-ness intact. Hyundai has ensured that the new i20 is as good-looking at the rear as it is at the front. We have a pair of Z-shaped LED taillamp clusters that are connected together via a horizontal chrome strip. This treatment also makes the new hatchback look wider.
Hyundai has packed the new i20 to the brim with features. The top-spec Asta (O) trim gets a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and Hyundai’s ‘BlueLink’ connected car features.
