Hyundai Motor India has unveiled a strategic price revision for its popular i20 hatchback, making select variants more accessible to Indian consumers. The company announced refreshed pricing that brings down the cost of entry into the i20 lineup.
Revised Pricing Structure
The most significant change comes to the entry-level Era variant, which now carries an ex-showroom price tag of Rs 5.99 lakh. This represents a notable reduction from its previous pricing, positioning the i20 as a more competitive offering in the premium hatchback segment.
Hyundai has also adjusted prices for two additional trims. The Magna Executive variant is now priced at Rs 6.74 lakh, while the Magna variant comes in at Rs 6.99 lakh. All prices mentioned are ex-showroom figures.

This premium setup supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity and includes a rear camera for parking assistance. The accessory package comes with a comprehensive three-year warranty.
Powertrain and Transmission Options
The i20 continues to be powered by Hyundai's reliable 1.2-litre, four-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine. The powertrain offers different outputs depending on transmission choice:
- 83 horsepower with manual transmission
- 88 horsepower with CVT automatic
- 115Nm of peak torque across both configurations
All trims come standard with a 5-speed manual transmission. The CVT automatic gearbox remains available exclusively with the Sportz and Asta trims, offering a smoother driving experience for urban commuters.
Warranty Coverage
Hyundai maintains its standard warranty package for the i20, offering coverage of three years or 1,00,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. This provides peace of mind to buyers concerned about long-term ownership costs.
The price revision strategy appears designed to boost the i20's competitiveness in India's crowded hatchback market, where value proposition plays a crucial role in purchase decisions. By making the entry point more accessible while maintaining feature-rich offerings across variants, Hyundai aims to attract a broader range of customers seeking premium hatchback features at competitive price points.
