New Hyundai i20 revealed in spy pictures

Autocar has just received pictures of the next generation Hyundai i20, months ahead of its global reveal. As seen in our illustration, the new i20 features clean crisp lines and very few exaggerated ‘fluidic’ like flourishes.

The design language is in fact very similar to that seen on the Grand i10 and the Xcent, with plenty of Peugeot influence on the nose. The low mounted grille forms the focal point of the design - the headlights, bonnet ‘V’ and even the strong shoulder line emanating from there. The upturned headlights have metal inserts that give definition to the over all design, the placement of the number plate is also interesting.

Loaded with plenty of equipment on the inside and well priced, in typical Hyundai fashion, the i20 has the potential to disrupt the status quo in its class. Question is, how well will it drive? Answers coming up, in the not too distant future.
