The biggest changes appear at the front and rear. The new i20 will feature connected LED daytime running lights at the front and a full-width LED light bar at the rear. The teaser also shows dual-pod LED headlamps with Y-shaped lighting elements and a redesigned grille that is no longer integrated with the headlight units.<\/p>\n

A brushed aluminium Hyundai badge has been placed on the bonnet, while the rear gets new C-shaped LED taillights connected by a light bar running across the tailgate.<\/p>\n

The new model is also expected to be slightly larger than the current i20.<\/p>\n

Hyundai has not revealed the interior yet, but spy images suggest the hatchback could get a curved dual-screen setup similar to the Venue. Reports also point to a new steering wheel and additional technology features.<\/p>\n

The company may also introduce advanced driver assistance features and a 360-degree camera system with the upgrade.<\/p>\n

Under the hood, Hyundai is expected to retain the existing engine lineup, including the 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine offered in several markets.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the automaker is working on a new 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine that could offer more power and torque than the current 1.0-litre turbo unit. Hyundai has not confirmed whether this engine will be available in the next-generation i20.<\/p>\n

The fourth-generation hatchback is expected to make its global debut around the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where Hyundai is one of the tournament’s major sponsors.<\/p>\n

In India, the current i20 is priced between INR 600,000 (USD 6,300) and INR 1.039 million (USD 10,910). The N-Line version is priced between INR 927,000 (USD 9,730) and INR 1.159 million (USD 12,170).<\/p>\n
