Hyundai unveils new Brazil-built i20 with SUV-inspired styling and larger size.
Hyundai has revealed a new-generation i20 hatchback in Brazil, and there’s an interesting new twist in its design, which takes inspiration from the brand’s Ioniq 3 electric crossover.
With tauter lines, a slightly raised stance and cladded wheel arches, the new i20 has a more SUV-like appearance, which makes sense given how the market has evolved in recent years.
However, it’s worth noting that this new i20 was revealed by the brand’s Brazilian division, and it’s unclear at this stage whether global versions will resemble the vehicle we see here. South Africa’s i20 hatchbacks are sourced from India, so our market will inevitably receive whichever new product is confirmed for that market.
Bulky rear end could divide opinion.
