    New Hyundai i20 Revealed At Paris Motor Show 2014

    Looking to blend category leading interior space, stylish design and hi-tech features, the i20 by Hyundai is set to grow the already impressive European market sales in 2015. 

Looking to blend category leading interior space, stylish design and hi-tech features, the i20 by Hyundai is set to grow the already impressive European market sales in 2015.

Built on a new larger than ever platform, the i20 presents an impressive appearance that is both visibly and practically more spacious. Flexibility is a dimension Hyundai have looked to maximise when considering how the i20 delivers a spacious ride. There’s ample space for luggage and five adult passengers, with the boot capacity increased by over 30 litres to nearly 330 on the previous model. Smart storage is found throughout the cabin with the boot expandable to over 1000 litres through folding the seats and making use of the double boot floor (perfect for concealing those valuables).


As well as all this additional room Hyundai have aimed at providing a vast array of choice when it comes to customising the style of the i20, both inside and out. There are nine exterior shades and 4 interior trims available, including a leather option. Chrome detailing in the cabin adds a touch of class and shows the level of investment Hyundai have committed to. Four overall trims will be available; the Access, Comfort, Panorama and LED, the latter being the top spec.

Technology wise the i20 is not so much a step but a leap forward for Hyundai’s supermini range. The 7” infortainment screen presents the satnav at an optimum touching distance for the driver and keeps everyone entertained, with the smartphone docking and “My Music” feature providing 1GB of music storage. The first in the category to come equipped with lane departure warning, both visual and audible warnings are activated if the driver veers off course.

Two petrol and two diesel engines will be available, with the entry model providing up to 83bhp from a 1.25 litre hub. For more power the 1.4 litre delivers 99bhp, that’s 0-62mph in 11.6 seconds. Alternatively, the two diesel engines come in a 1.1 litre (74bhp) or 1.4 litre (89bhp) version, with a new eco-centric 1 litre three cylinder turbo engine being pencilled in after initial launch.

Hyundai expect the new i20 to be ready for the showroom in the early New Year.

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

    All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
