The Hyundai Elite i20-based Crossover has been officially launched and Hyundai has priced the low-end model of the car at INR 6.38 lacs.

Features
Hyundai India has always been liberal with loading its cars with class-leading features and much like other Hyundai models on sale in the country, the i20 Active benefits from some class leading features, such as – cooled glove compartment, engine start-stop button, rear aircon vents and a premium audio system with internal storage. Also, the i20 Active gets a thoughtful safety feature that ignores accelerator input while the brake pedal is being pressed.

Engines
Powering the car is the same set of engines that power the i20 hatchback. This means that the new Hyundai i20 Active gets a 1.2-litre petrol and a 1.4-litre diesel four cylinder engines. While the petrol motor comes mated with a five-speed manual gearbox, the diesel engine gets a six-speed unit. While the i20 Active enjoys the same power-torque figures as its hatchback sibling, revised gear ratios has led to a 6% and 11% increase in the performance of petrol and diesel variants respectively. As we discovered during the media ride, the i20 Active does ‘feel’ more sprightly than the Elite i20.
