Hyundai i20 N-Line: A closer look at the India-bound hot hatchback

Hyundai is India’s second largest car manufacturer in the country and has variety of models in their portfolio. Hyundai launched the all-new i20 premium hatchback in the Indian market last year and we have also shared our opinions regarding the same our website and YouTube channel as well. Hyundai has also launched a much more powerful N-Line version of the premium hatchback internationally and the same is expected to makes its way to India as well. Lately, a fully camouflaged i20 has been spotted testing on our roads and we have featured the same on our website as well. Here we have a video that shows how the N-Line version of the i20 looks.

The video shows the Hyundai i20 N-Line hatchback. Hyundai i20 is one of the popular premium hatchbacks in the country and it competes with cars like Maruti Baleno, Volkswagen Polo, Tata Altroz and Honda Jazz in the segment. The i20 N-Line version when launched will be placed above the regular i20 as it will have some cosmetic changes and performance upgrades.

The video shows what all is different in this hatchback from the regular version. The front gets a much more wider and sportier looking gloss black grille. The Headlight remain the same with LED DRLs and fog lamps in the lower part of the bumper. The bumper is different and it looks a lot more sharper than the regular version. There are red colour accents and N Line badge on the front grille that shouts that it is not a regular i20.

The car gets a dual tone paint job and there are grey coloured side skirt with red accents and different looks gun metal grey alloy wheels with low profile tyres. The red calipers with N-Line badging can also be seen here on the calipers. As we move to the rear, the N-Line version has a sportier looking bumper at the rear as well. A sporty looking roof mounted spoiler is also installed on it. The bumper has multiple rear accents and a chrome tip exhaust at the rear. A diffuser is also seen here at the rear.

On the inside, the seats are changed and the steering wheel looks a lot more sportier with multiple drive modes and other features. The one seen here in the video is a manual version. The video also shows how the i20 N-Line actually sounds. It has a sporty exhaust note which adds to the sporty nature of the car. The version that has been spotted in India was seen with twin exhaust tips.

Hyundai i20 N-Line is going to be powered by a 1.0 litre turbocharged petrol engine that is currently available in other Hyundai models like Venue and Verna. The engine can generate a maximum of 120 Ps and 172 Nm of peak torque. It might come with a DCT and a manual gearbox. Hyundai has not shared any information regarding the same. Hyundai will be tuning the suspension a bit to make the ride a lot stiffer. Regular Hyundai i20 is available with two petrol and one diesel engine option.
