Hyundai has officially unveiled the pricing and full specs for the second generation Hyundai i20 supermini. The new range will start from £10,695 when it hits showrooms in January 2015 which is more than the new Skoda Fabia and a lot more than the Vauxhall Corsa, which starts at £8,995.
The i20 line-up starts with the 74bhp 1.2-litre petrol engine in S spec, with electric front windows, tinted windows, USB connectivity and remote locking. An optional extra £750 gets you the S Air version, which adds manual air-con. The S Blue is only available with the 74bhp 1.1 CRDI diesel, at £12,445. This adds stop/start and low-rolling-resistance tyres to achieve CO2 emissions of 84g/km.
