images are good but...... They may not provide all those things in indian version

i20 certainly looks better !! With the sedan space inside and hatch body outside it might catch up.

OT: Attached one looks a clear PS job to me

If they launch the six speed manula with that 1.6 CRDi, I'm sure there will be many takers. Hatch image is definitely changing in India as the cities are growing with traffic and parking issues.

These pics have got us all so interested. I'm pretty impressed with the interiors. I hope Hyundai gives the Indian version some good specs. I was very disappointed when the Getz CRDI was launched.

Why were you disappointed.

By the specs in general. I expected it in a GLS/GLX trim at least. Except for the engine I found the car - especially interiors to be dull and boring.

Anyway, I'm sure Hyundai would do a better job given that the i20 is a new car internationally and there is tough competition round the corner.

I agree there should have been a better trim for the crdi version, but it would have resulted in making the car more expensive than what it is now, and to provide a better trim at the existing rates may not have been possible.

We are going O.T here.

Exactly. I felt the same too when I saw it. I even pointed it out to my colleague and tbhp member Sreenivas.

Has anyone else here noticed disc brakes on all 4 wheels on the i20?

Are there other hatchbacks sold abroad that come with all wheel disc brakes?

However, don't think Hyundai will even give all wheel disc brakes here even as an option [considering it may be a safety requirement for 120+ bhp compacts?]

from pics, it sure looks like a winner in india if priced right. I just hope they dont repeat getz saga with i20

Have been religiously tracking this thread and since almost over last ten days now, there is no news on Verna. Anyone has any news update on Verna ?-
At least an Automatic Verna ( I wish VGT of course) was on cards and there is another thread on that too. What happened Hyundai?

Two links showing video of i20. One of them is shot in Pondy!

I20 looks really good!. The thing is that they don't provide this type of quality to Indian version. That's really bad.
