Just days after its premiere at Auto Shanghai 2019,
the 2020 Hyundai ix25 has been spotted without any
camouflage or disguise on South Korean roads. It will go on sale in China in
the second of this year.
If history is going to repeat itself, the second
generation Hyundai ix25 will be the second generation Hyundai Creta for India
and all other markets except China. It has a
strikingly different and bolder design compared to the outgoing model.
It takes
a solid inspiration from the flagship Hyundai Palisade. With the full model
change, the sub-compact B-SUV departs away from its balanced and symmetric body
lines and adopts a completely new look. Packing a futuristic light design at
the front and rear and a more prominent radiator grille, it aims to appeal even
more strongly to young buyers.
On the inside, the new 2020 Hyundai Creta has an
entirely new interior and the main highlight would be the luxury vehicle-like
exceptionally large floating portrait infotainment system display. The cabin
space is designed with a very minimalist approach which can be figured out with
the new compact steering wheel, the horizontal central air vents and the
uncluttered dashboard.
The all-new 2020 Hyundai Creta will likely come with
the same all-new 1.5-litre petrol and diesel engines as the facelifted Hyundai
Verna (TBA) and the Hyundai Venue's 1.0-litre T-GDI petrol engine. Its launch
is expected to take place in the second half of 2020.
