Hyundai i20 N Line revealed – What does it get over i20?
Hyundai is known for its bold approach in India. After few weeks of teasers and months of leaks, Hyundai has officially unveiled the Hyundai i20 N Line in India today. The N Line series of Hyundai is inspired by the performance-focused N line-up. These N Line cars are majorly offered with cosmetic changes only, but it is a step in the right direction for Hyundai to slowly introduce its complete N Line line-up in India. In today’s article, we will be looking at the Hyundai i20 N Line revealed and the differences that it comes with when compared to the regular i20. Let’s go.
Exterior design
The i20 N Line gets some cosmetic changes in the exterior when compared to the regular i20. The i20 N Line gets a chequered flag-inspired front grille and a sharper dual-tone front bumper. It also gets red highlights on the side skirts. New 16-inch alloy wheels with red brake callipers will help it differentiate from the regular i20. Also, N Line badging, a twin-tip exhaust, a sporty spoiler with winglets and a slightly tweaked rear bumper with a sporty diffuser will be some of the other unique elements of this hatchback. The i20 N Line will be offered in six colour options (Thunder Blue, Thunder Blue with black roof, Fiery Red, Fiery Red with black roof, Titan Grey and Polar White).
