These are the first pictures of the soon-to-be launched i20 facelift.

As seen from the pictures, the refreshed i20 gets a light dose of Hyundai’s latest fluidic sculpture design language which is clearly seen in the front styling. The headlights are slimmer and the grille is hexagonal.

The front bumper is completely new with re-styled housings for the fog lamps and a much-wider chin. The hood design is also updated possibly due to the new EU crash-test regulations. Styling changes to the rear include a new bumper and re-profiled tail lamps. It also gets new alloy-wheel designs.

The updated i20 will also feature minor tweaks of the interiors. Expect the new i20 to get an official unveil at the upcoming Geneva motor show and will be launched in our market soon thereafter.
