Inside the cabin, it will get a fresh appearance with refreshed dashboard design and upholstery material as well. The touchscreen infotainment will be replaced by a new unit with a better interface and the Blue Link technology. Also, the new i20 will sport an electric sunroof, a segment-first feature.
Engine upgrades will include three new motors onboard. It will get the new 1.2 Litre BS-6 compliant engine from the Aura. Since the 1.4 Litre diesel unit will be discontinued, we can expect either the 1.2 Litre diesel engine from Nios or a heavily detuned version of the 1.5 Litre turbo-diesel unit from Seltos.
Reports also suggest that the new 2020 Hyundai i20 might get Venue’s 1.0 Litre turbo-petrol unit. The power figures for the turbo unit might be around 100-105 BHP, paired with a 7-speed DCT. Other options could include a 5-speed MT for petrol, a 6-speed MT for diesel and an automatic gearbox for both the engines.
