This is the first sketch released of an upcoming new Hyundai model called the Hyundai ix20. Despite the x in its name which so far has been given to new Hyundai SUV models, the ix20 is actually a B-segment MPV, according to Hyundai at least. This could possibly be a replacement for the seriously aging Hyundai Matrix but I’m not totally sure, but what’s probably confirmed is that its a Hyundai counterpart to the Kia Venga. The Hyundai ix20 will be displayed at the Paris Motorshow 2010 on the 30th of September 2010 but I bet a few images will be released in between this sketch and the show debut.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Paultan.org seems to be dead fast on the news .. sometimes I think they get their news even before people in Hyundai get theirs.
Bodeking?
Rhys… he definitely is
the ppl at Hyundai might need to refer to paultan.org for updates on their own makes.
Kia / Hyundai seems to be improving every year.
That’s why our Govt is suggesting that P1 and P2 merge
however sad to say they can never see eye to eye.
or maybe p1 can ditch mitsubishi and start collaborating with hyundai/kia
that will do wonder for p1.
swoop is the new cool
way 2 go hyundai
if ur cars aint fast at least make them look cool
so lawa even it create with photoshop
Now that’s what i call a nice design. Jap car need to learn from the koreans now on
smaller version of ix35…very cute!
Kia has been bought over by Hyundai many years ago.. so both of them is the same company actually.
same disgn language as tucson
similar cues like EMAS……?
paul,
I believe this is from the Getz/i20 line. Matrix is in the C-segment/i30 range, the 6/7-seater replacement of which will be launched next year.
Locally, not sure when this ix20(thought that it was to be called iC20) will be here as even the i20 is yet to come.
This is a Matrix replacement. Matrix was never a 6/7 seater.
great…
finally a contender for the expensive Yaris and Jazz….well, GM’s new Aveo hasn’t arrive over..bang for bucks with 5 yrs warranty , 6 speed?… and famously a good price tag ( hopefully) around <$75k.
Go Korean~~
What a good country with ambitious people at the right place~
they copy ~ they learn ~ they evolve ~ sooner or later, they will lead ~ !
The Koreans are coming up with beautiful and reliable cars – they will capture the car market soon at this rate they are going. Good – our roads will not be monopolized by Japanese cars. The new Sonota is very beautiful and I believe its performance could be comparable or even better than Toyota or Honda.
Better than Pro..poton Emas :)
I am beginning to love Hyundais now
from what the …. atos/santro
to this and the new sonata and those spy pics Verna and that Russian accent concept
Hyundai you are not catching up
you are grabbing up
finally one company has got the mantra
If it aint fast, at least make it look cool
and well after reading the road test for the new sonata
I am glad to say that a combination without compromise has been achieved.
period.
