Prices for the diesel variants of the i20 remain unchanged though Hyundai is expected to ditch the powerplant when the stricter Real Driving Emission norms come into effect on the 1st of April, 2023.

The petrol versions of the Hyundai i20 are offered with either a naturally aspirated 1.2-litre four-cylinder engine or a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged engine that powers the Turbo and N Line variants. The 1.2-litre naturally aspirated engine pushes out 82bhp and 115Nm of peak torque and is offered with either a 6-speed manual or a CVT gearbox.

The smaller 1.0-litre engine is more powerful as it features a turbocharger that helps it produce 118bhp and 172Nm of peak torque. The engine is offered with a 6-speed DCT automatic gearbox in the 'Turbo' variants while the N Line also gets the iMT transmission along with the DCT.

The Hyundai i20 has received its usual annual price hike for 2023. However, the premium hatchback has lost a few trim levels due to Hyundai dropping the iMT gearbox for the i20 Turbo models.
