The new i20 is a very spacious, well-kitted and keenly priced addition to this competitive segment, but it’s let down by weak engines The i20 seems to be the unsung hero of Hyundai’s hatch back line-up. While the original i10 was the face of the scrappage scheme, and the i30 marked the brand’s first major step towards taking on the might of the VW group, the i20 has so far passed by relatively unnoticed despite strong sales since 2008 – until now that is.With this new model, Hyundai’s major assault on the supermini class really begins. Dominated for years by the Ford Fiesta, the latest i20 now has to go toe-to-toe with not just the Ford, but the new Skoda Fabia, revitalized Vauxhall Corsa and VW Polo.There will be four engines from launch, two petrol and two diesel. Most are familiar from the rest of the Hyundai range, but a new three-pot turbo will join the range next year, to try and compete with the excellent turbo triples from both Vauxhall and Ford.from Autocar RSS Feed http://ift.tt/1t11beD
