Hello people

Took these pics on the way back from my office. Its Hyundais premium hatch the i20. This was a left hand drive. Initially hyundai is planning to start the production of the export model to be followed with the domestic.

Well that spec sticker on the left rear quarter window is typical Hyundai! Good catch Aditya!

nitroxx · 3rd September 2008, 03:10

Is it just me or are all hatchback getting that side window look? first the swift, then the fabia, now this... interesting.. lets wait for it to show its face though..I hope its not an Aygo with a pinch of JAzz in it.

how they are able to test LHD cars on roads ? isn't it illegal ??

Hey good catch bro !! I spotted it in Pune as well

Quick stupid question, i guess mayb answered before.
why all test cars are dressed in black and not in maybe a color like yellow. doesnt black clothing make them risky at night?

prashanthyr · 3rd September 2008, 13:55

Rear Disc brakes! That would be a first in India if offered. I hope Hyundai does a hot hatch of this with the VGT from the Verna.

If it was LHD means it's going to be a while before it's launched here.

You are trying to say that all black colour cars are risky. I dont see any connection how black clothing can make a car risky

NO i dint mean black cars are risky. i meant a car covered with black cloth covering on it will be less reflective and hence less visible at night in comparison to a black metal surface. i hope that clears my question

Aditya Nice Catch!! i20 does look big. Lets see how Hyundai prices it!

snaronikar · 3rd September 2008, 16:07

That's a good catch Aditya. From back, looks more of Getz to me. If launched in India, hope they will keep the pricing right unlike Getz CRDI.
