The new Hyundai i20 instantly caught the attention of our jury members. The striking design and a feature packed cabin made for a strong first impression and then for its segment, it performed beyond expectations even on the track. The Hyundai i20 has been developed from ground up and is underpinned by a new platform that offers better rigidity and handling. There is a new digital instrument cluster as well and the cool animation, and a TFT screen with plenty of information – including tyre pressure monitoring. Taking centre stage on the dashboard is that 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system and it also gets Bluelink connectivity now, which makes it a connected car, a segment first.

The Hyundai i20 has been developed from ground up and is underpinned by a new platform
The new Hyundai i20 is offered in four variants Magna, Sportz, Asta and Asta (O) and with a choice of engine and gearbox combinations. There are three engine options on the new i20 – a 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated petrol, a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel. While a manual gearbox will be available with both the 1.2 petrol and 1.5 diesel, the 1.0 turbo only gets an intelligent manual transmission option.

Both petrol engines will be available with an automatic gearbox as well, the 1.2 petrol will have a CVT (IVT in Hyundai-speak), while the 1.0 turbo will have a 7-speed DCT. The 1.2-litre petrol belts out 87 bhp and 115 Nm on the IVT version, while the manual produces 82 bhp and 115 Nm. The 1.5-litre diesel puts out 99 bhp and 240 Nm. But the most powerful is the 1-litre turbo petrol which punches out 118 bhp and 172 Nm of peak torque. The Hyundai i20 was competing against the Tata Altroz at our jury round and took the lead by a fair margin.
