Expanding the variant lineup of the i20, Hyundai India has silently launched two new automatic trims: 1.2 CVT Asta (O) and 1.0 DCT Sportz – priced at Rs 10.51 lakh and Rs 9.76 lakh, respectively (ex-showroom, Delhi). The Korean carmaker has also used this opportunity to revise the features list of the i20. But before we head to the details, here’s a look at the complete price list of this premium hatchback: –

- With the introduction of 1.0 DCT Sportz, the Hyundai i20 DCT automatic has become more accessible for buyers. It is Rs 1.05 lakh more affordable than the 1.0-liter Asta DCT trim.
- People buying the Hyundai i20 for moderate use will now get the convenience of CVT with its fully-loaded Asta (O) trim as well.

New Features
As far as the feature changes are concerned, most of the i20 variants have gained some new features. The changes include: –
- The base-spec Magna trim gets gunmetal finished wheel covers instead of silver.
- Addition of automatic climate control and cruise control to the 1.0 iMT Sportz trim.
- The Asta trim now gets an electric sunroof as standard fitment. Earlier, it was limited to its 1.0-litre iMT trim. However, the brand has now replaced its 10.1-inch infotainment system with an 8-inch unit. It also witnesses the deletion of connected car features.
- The range-topping Asta (O) variant gains some additional voice commands for the Blue Link connected car tech.
Apart from the above-mentioned revisions, the Hyundai i20 remains unchanged. It continues to rival the likes of Honda Jazz, VW Polo, facelifted Maruti Baleno, Tata Altroz, and soon-to-be updated Toyota Glanza. In fact, Tata Motors is also gearing up to introduce dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) with the Altroz.
