I20 Features Summary
As its name suggests, the i20 slots neatly in between Hyundai’s i10 citycar and i30 family hatchback, both impressive but sometimes rather forgotten contenders in their respective sectors.
You could make the same observation about this i20, for apart from a brief sales spurt following an original launch in 2009 that was boosted by interest generated by the government’s short-lived Scrappage Scheme, it had become a rather forgotten choice in the supermini sector before the arrival of this higher quality MK2 model in early 2015.
This was a car intended to move this Korean brand’s presence in the supermini segment up a gear.
To an extent it did just that, adding usefully to the i20’s sales performance in our market; over 125,000 first and second generation versions of this car had been sold in this country by 2018.
But by this point, the supermini competition had got a whole lot tougher, with all-new models from big brands like Ford, Volkswagen, Nissan, SEAT and Citroen shaking up the supermini segment.
2018 also saw an all-new version of this Hyundai’s direct cousin, the Kia Rio, and it was natural that as part of the mid-term MK2 model i20 updates, some of that Rio’s more recent technology should have been carried forward into this car.
Much of that was to do with improvements when it came to media connectivity and safety provision – but there was more to it than that.
The three cylinder 1.0 T-GDi turbo petrol engine that prior to 2018 was only latterly a fundamental part of the original MK2 i20 model’s line-up became well established in this facelifted version and could be ordered with the brand’s latest 7-speed dual clutch auto transmission.
For both three and five-door variants, there was also a smarter exterior look that visually brought this car into line with some of Hyundai’s other recent models.
The three-door version only lasted until mid-2019: from then on, it was five doors-only. This facelifted MK2 i20 sold until late 2020 when an all-new third generation model was launched.
