Hyundai i20 Active (2019) Updates

Friday, 01 November 2019 12:08 PM Hyundai Motor India silently launched the 2019 Hyundai i20 Active in India, with prices starting at Rs. 7.74 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The new model comes in three variants: S, SX, and SX dual-tone, and is available with both petrol and diesel engine options. The update includes new safety features such as reverse parking sensors, reverse camera, and speed alert system. I think these safety additions are a significant step forward for the i20 Active.

Thursday, 31 October 2019 06:57 AM The 2019 Hyundai i20 Active retains the same engine options as its predecessor, featuring a 1.2-litre petrol engine producing 82 bhp and a 1.4-litre diesel engine producing 89 bhp. The petrol engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the diesel engine comes with a 6-speed manual transmission. The diesel engine is only available in the top SX trim.

Friday, 01 November 2019 01:21 AM The 2019 Hyundai i20 Active includes several cosmetic updates, such as projector headlamps with LED DRLs and cornering lamps, LED taillights, fog lamps, and a shark fin antenna. The interior features a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a push start button, wireless charger, and automatic climate control. I believe these updates make the i20 Active more appealing to modern buyers.

Thursday, 31 October 2019 08:31 AM Hyundai has introduced new safety features in the 2019 i20 Active to comply with mandatory safety norms. These features include six airbags, reverse parking sensors, seatbelt reminder, speed alerts, and ABS with EBD. These enhancements significantly improve the safety profile of the vehicle.

Thursday, 31 October 2019 05:03 PM The 2019 Hyundai i20 Active saw a marginal price increase of about Rs. 2,000 over the previous model. Despite the price hike, the vehicle remains competitive in its segment. I think the added features justify the slight increase in price.

Thursday, 21 June 2018 09:48 AM Speculations suggest that Hyundai is developing the next generation of the i20, which was expected to debut at the 2020 Auto Expo. This new generation could bring more significant changes and updates to the i20 Active lineup.

Thursday, 01 February 2018 06:30 AM Hyundai announced that the i20 Active facelift would debut at the Auto Expo 2018. The facelifted model was expected to retain its dimensions under the 4-meter mark and feature new design elements such as updated bumpers and rear combination lamps.
