Koreans have never expected the day of tomorrow, when it was scheduled the official unveiling of i20 facelift, preferring to resort to the already usual virtual previews. Let us know what little hatchback in 2012 has prepared for us ...

Well, first of all, we are dealing with a completely changed aspect, well anchored in the language of "fluidic sculpture", characterized by the presence of almond-shaped "eyes", triangular fog lights and redesigned grille, then, from the side, i20 gives opportunity to admire the new alloy wheels, while behind, displays a unique set of lights, a little faded.

Curiously, the car length increased significantly up to 3995 mm (in the past, only3.940 mm), while the width (1710 mm), height (1490 mm) and wheelbase (2525mm) remained the same, in turn, under hood, the changes are more drastic. In a good way...

Immediately after presentation of the Geneva, range of engines of Hyundai i20 facelift will include a new 1.1-liter diesel engine with three cylinders, able to emit only 84 g of CO2 per km.
Called U-II, it will become one of the world greener conventional units, but will have a strong internal competition: version 1.4 liters and 90 HP, in conjunction with BlueDrive technology, shall, at its turn under 100 g CO2 per km (96 grams, more precisely).

Stay tuned for more information, shortly after its official debut tomorrow ...
