India's most premium hatchback — bold design, turbo power and loaded with features
The Hyundai i20 sits at the top of the hatchback segment in India, offering a genuinely premium experience with a bold exterior design, a feature-packed interior and multiple powertrain options including a turbocharged 1.0L engine with DCT automatic.
The cabin is one of the best in its class — a large 10.25-inch touchscreen, a fully digital instrument cluster, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and a Bose sound system on top variants create an interior that feels premium even compared to many small SUVs.
With a turbo DCT variant, the i20 also delivers the most engaging driving experience in the premium hatchback segment, with zippy performance from its turbocharged 1.0L Kappa engine.
Tap any variant to see exactly what's included and what's missing. Note: Hyundai discontinued the 1.0L turbo-petrol engine with this facelift — the i20 now runs exclusively on the 1.2L naturally-aspirated petrol (MT or iVT).
