There is always a confusing situation for a customer when going out to buy a new car. The reason is the availability of so many variants in the market of the same product. Another one could be finding out which one would be reasonable and the usability of features offered on the particular variant. Today, Hyundai India introduced a new variant of the i20 called Hyundai i20 Sportz (O).
Now, the best part about this variant is that it comes with features very similar to the Asta variant but is priced at just Rs.8.73 Lakh onwards (Ex-showroom, Delhi).
Want to learn more about it? Here are all the details related to it down below.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Hyundai i20 Sportz (O) is the new variant for the Indian market.
- It is available with an 82BHP, 1.2-litre four-cylinder petrol engine.
- Some additional features, like an electric sunroof, have been added.
Hyundai i20 Sportz (O): What’s new?
The new Sportz (O) variant is based on the regular Sportz variant but is Rs.35,000 expensive when compared to the regular variant. The reason behind it? Well, for that money, the hatchback features an electric sunroof and a wireless charger. Also, the cabin’s premium feel is now enhanced by using leather treatment on the door armrests. These are some updates that were earlier found on the top-end Asta variant only.
Under the hood, the new i20 Sportz (O) comes powered by a reliable 1.2-litre four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine that churns 82 horsepower and 115Nm of peak torque. Thankfully, the new variant is offered with both manual and automatic transmissions, offering customers the option to choose a gearbox according to their requirements.
Another highlight of the i20 Sportz (O) is that is available with dual-tone colour options, but sadly, the dual-tone models are priced a little higher when compared to the standard variants.
In India, Hyundai i20 continues its rivalry with similar hatchbacks. The list includes some big names, including Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Tata Altroz and Toyota Glanza, among others.
