- Leaked images of the next-generation Hyundai i20 have surfaced online, revealing the hatchback's completely redesigned exterior and interior ahead of its official debut. The next-gen Hyundai i20 is likely to make its global debut in the coming weeks.
The next-generation Hyundai i20 has been fully revealed in a fresh set of leaked images ahead of its official global debut. The latest pictures provide a detailed look at the premium hatchback's redesigned exterior and interior, suggesting that Hyundai has given the i20 a comprehensive makeover rather than a simple facelift.
Radical new exterior design
The leaked images reveal a significantly bolder front fascia inspired by Hyundai's latest design philosophy. The hatchback features a full-width LED light bar connecting distinctive Y-shaped daytime running lights, while the primary headlamp units have been fully redesigned.

The front grille has been redesigned with a sharper and more upright appearance, complemented by a sculpted bonnet and angular bumper elements that give the car a more muscular stance.
On the sides, the new i20 sports fresh alloy wheels, crisp character lines, and blacked-out pillars that contribute to a more SUV-inspired profile. At the rear, connected LED tail lamps and a redesigned bumper further modernise the hatchback's overall look. There is also a fresh set of taillamps that are a lot sharper.
Cabin gets a major upgrade
The interior has also undergone a significant transformation. Leaked images show a new dashboard layout dominated by a large curved display that combines the digital instrument cluster and infotainment touchscreen into a single unit. We already know that the infotainment system will measure 12.3 inches in size. Fortunately, Hyundai has kept buttons for most of the functionalities.
The cabin also features a redesigned steering wheel, updated centre console, and revised switchgear, giving it a cleaner and more premium appearance than the outgoing model.
Expected features
The next-generation i20 is expected to pack several new convenience and safety features. These could include wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, connected car technology, a 360-degree camera, automatic climate control, a premium audio system, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
The feature upgrades are expected to make the hatchback more competitive in the premium segment. Being a Hyundai, we can be sure that the feature list will be quite extensive.

Global debut expected soon
The leaked images indicate that the new Hyundai i20 is nearly production-ready and could make its official global debut in the coming weeks.
