Hyundai Automotive SA has added a sixth model to its popular i20 range, positioning the newcomer as a mid-spec derivative fitted with an automatic transmission.
The i20 1,4 Motion automatic pairs the Korean automaker’s familiar 74 kW/133 N.m petrol engine with a four-speed automatic transmission, offering a more affordable self-shifting alternative to the Fluid auto. Hyundai claims that the new model sips at 7,5 L/100 km.
Priced at R249 900, the new derivative is R25 000 cheaper than the Fluid automatic.
Standard features on the new derivative include a multifunction steering wheel, height adjustment on the driver’s seat, Bluetooth functionality, an audio system (with USB and auxiliary connections) and manual air-conditioning. So that means items such as rear parking sensors and foglamps, which are found on the Fluid models, are excluded.
