About the Hyundai i20 N
The Hyundai i20 N arrived in 2021 as a direct challenger to the Ford Fiesta ST, leveraging the brand's World Rally Championship success. Powered by a 1.6-litre T-GDi engine, it features a mechanical limited-slip differential (N Corner Carving Differential) and a reinforced chassis for exceptional agility. Unlike many modern rivals, it was offered exclusively with a six-speed manual gearbox, emphasizing driver engagement. Production for the European market ended in early 2024 as Hyundai shifted focus toward its electric N performance line, cementing the i20 N's status as a final-era combustion hero.
