Prices of the 2018 Hyundai i20 automatic have been
revealed. Available in Magna and Asta grades, the Hyundai i20 CVT range starts
INR 7.04 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi) onwards. Direct rivals of the new variant
include Maruti Baleno CVT, Honda Jazz CVT, and Ford Figo 1.5 AT.
The CVT gearbox mates with the 1.2 L Kappa petrol
engine good for 83 PS and 11.7 kgm. The use of a 1.2 L engine will help the i20
automatic comply with small car restrictions. The petrol automatic variant of
the pre-facelift model came with 1.4 L engine paired with a 4-speed torque
converter automatic. As it exceeded the 1,200 cc petrol engine cap for small
cars, Hyundai was unable to price it competitively and was thus, unable to find
many takers. It was launched in September 2016 solely in Magna grade priced at
INR 9.02 lakhs (ex-showroom).
As per the distribution of the features seen in the
case of manual variants, the Hyundai i20 CVT will miss out on side and curtain
airbags, automatic headlamps, smart key, headlamps with projector units and LED
DRLs, diamond cut alloy wheels, and electric folding ORVMs. It will get
features like the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system and bumper mounted LED
DRLs, however.
