Hyundai i10 which has been doing well since its debut, Hyundai India will come up with an another small car called ‘i20?. While the i10 will cater to the needs of A segment customers, the new i20 will meet the needs of B or B+ segment lovers. The new i20 developed under the codename ‘PB’ will replace the getz in global markets but in india it will co-exist with the exist atleast for some period of time. The i20 (codenamed PB) will be positioned above the existing Getz.Unlike the i10, the new i20 is designed specifically to meet the european consumers(not for indian). But since Hyundai is shifting its small car production to india from korea, Hyundai will offer the new i20 as a bonus to indian consumers. Already, Hyundai india manufacturers european atos prime(santro in india), i10 and getz for global markets. Soon the new i20 will join this line-up. With this almost 30% of Hyundai production will be manufactured in the chennai plant by 2009.Hyundai’s new i20 hatchback is largely inspired by its premium hatchback i30 (already launched in europe and korea). i20 front is defined with a low slung grille, large headlamps and sporty round fog lamps. The steeply raked winds screen flows smoothly and merges with a novel tail section. Similar to Renault Clio, Hyundai i20 features an upright tailgate which means more room for luggage too. Interiors will be top notch with high-quality plastics and it will be comfortable with a more flexible seating layout similar to i10. If you believe getz is the most spacious hatchback, time has come to rethink! the new i20 will be offer plenty of space to live-in even more than the spacious getz.
