Hyundai has unveiled its new i20 hatchback, which features a sharper design, improved performance, and enhanced technology. The 2023 Hyundai i20 is a compact car that offers a spacious interior, a sporty driving experience, and a range of safety and convenience features. It is expected to hit the European market in early 2023, with a starting price of around $19,000.
A New Look for the i20
The 2023 Hyundai i20 has a new look that reflects its dynamic and agile character. The front of the car has a wider grille, sleeker headlights, and a lower bumper that give it a more aggressive appearance. The side profile has a wedge-shaped silhouette, with sharp creases and curves that create a sense of movement. The rear of the car has a horizontal tailgate, LED taillights, and a diffuser that enhances its sporty appeal.
The new i20 also has a two-tone roof option that allows customers to customize their cars with different color combinations. The car is available in 10 exterior colors, including four new ones: Intense Blue, Aurora Gray, Aqua Turquoise, and Brass. The car also has 15-inch or 17-inch alloy wheels that add to its stylish look.
A Better Performance for the i20
The 2023 Hyundai i20 has a better performance than its predecessor, thanks to its new engine options and transmission choices. The car has three petrol engines to choose from: a 1.0-liter turbocharged engine with 100 or 120 horsepower, a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine with 84 horsepower, and a 1.0-liter mild hybrid engine with 100 or 120 horsepower. The mild hybrid engine uses a 48-volt battery system that reduces fuel consumption and emissions by up to four percent.
The car also has three transmission options: a five-speed manual, a six-speed manual, or a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. The automatic transmission has paddle shifters on the steering wheel that allow drivers to change gears manually for more control and fun. The car also has a drive mode selector that lets drivers choose between normal, eco, or sport modes depending on their driving preferences.
