The new Hyundai i20 has turned out to be a great success for the Korean carmaker in India. And the reason we say this is because of the fact that the company has sold over 1 lakh units of the premium hatchback within 11 months. In fact the new Hyundai i20 had entered the list of top 10 most selling brands in India within two months of its launch.
Three things that we believe worked in favour of the new Hyundai i20 are - outstanding style, best-in-class interior and a set of frugal engines. The vehicle is available in two engine options - 1.2-litre Dual VTVT Kappa petrol and U2 1.4-litre CRDi diesel engine.
Celebrating this moment of success, Mr. B S Seo, MD & CEO, HMIL said, "We are overwhelmed with the customer's response by receiving over unprecedented 100,000 sales for the Elite i20 in 11 months. This reflects the strong customer connect and confidence on Hyundai products. We thank customers, channel partner, employees and media who have chosen our product Elite i20 making it as a super performer brand in India and who have contributed to this landmark achievement."
