Hyundai Motor India Ltd. has discontinued the 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine for the i20 due to the upcoming Real Driving Emission (RDE) norms that came into force on April 1, 2023. This move makes the i20 a petrol-only offering in India. I believe this shift will impact buyers looking for a diesel option in the premium hatchback segment.

The Hyundai i20 Magna, which was previously available with a diesel engine, now comes only with petrol engine options. The current petrol variants include a 1.2-litre four-pot naturally aspirated engine and a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbocharged engine. I think this change might push some buyers towards other brands that still offer diesel options, like the Tata Altroz.

Before its discontinuation, the Hyundai i20 Magna diesel was known for its 1.5-litre U2 diesel engine, producing 99 bhp and 240 Nm of torque, and offered a mileage of 25.2 kmpl. This made it a popular choice for those seeking a balance between performance and fuel efficiency. I believe the absence of this diesel variant will be felt by many who valued its capabilities.

The discontinuation of the diesel engine in the Hyundai i20 has led to a focus on the petrol variants, which include features like a 26.03 cm HD touchscreen infotainment system, Bose premium 7 speaker system, and an electric sunroof. I think these features will attract buyers who prioritize technology and comfort over diesel fuel efficiency.

In the Indian market, the Hyundai i20 Magna diesel was priced around Rs. 8.43 lakh, making it a competitive option in the premium hatchback segment. With its discontinuation, buyers will have to consider other models or the remaining petrol variants of the i20. I believe this price point will be missed by those who were looking for a diesel car in this range.
