The updated i20 range consists of six derivatives, which includes the range-topping 1.4 Active that takes the place of the outgoing 1.4 Sport. The other five derivatives are the 1.2 Motion and 1.2 Fluid - both with a five-speed manual transmission; the 1.4 Motion and 1.4 Fluid - with a four-speed automatic transmission; and the 1.4 Fluid with a six-speed manual transmission. The 1.4 Active also comes with the six-speed manual transmission.
The front of the i20 Motion and Fluid derivatives now features a cascading grille. The rear of the i20 Motion, Fluid and Active also have updated bumpers and rear combination lamps.
Hyundai has added new 16-inch alloy wheels for the Fluid and Active derivatives, while the i20 Motion runs on steel wheels. The Motion and Fluid derivatives have body-coloured front and rear bumper styling.
The updated i20 has a boot capacity of 285 litres, and 1,001 litres with the rear seatbacks folded down.
Motion derivatives have manual air conditioners, while the Fluid and Active versions come with automatic climate control as a standard luxury feature. All derivatives have glove box cooling by the air conditioner.
Fluid and Active derivatives have a storage compartment underneath the front armrest. Across the range the i20 is equipped with remote controls on the steering for the sound system's audio control, Bluetooth telephone connection and the onboard computer, which shows average fuel consumption and speed, distance to empty for the fuel tank, immediate fuel consumption and two trip meters.
The refreshed i20 range offers a choice of two petrol multi-point fuel-injection powertrains: the Kappa 1,197cc engine with a 61kW maximum power output at 6,000 r/min., and the Kappa 1,368cc engine generating a maximum output of 74kW, also at 6,000 r/min.
According to Hyundai, McPherson Struts at the front suspension, featuring revised suspension geometry and new tie rod design, enhance steering feedback and precision, while improving handling characteristics.
