South Korean automaker Hyundai has said that they would be launching their i20 model in the Indian market by the end of the year.
The company today launched an updated version of their i10 model with a new powerful engine.
Hyundai i10 is now powered with a 1.2 liter Kappa engine and these new models are priced between Rs 3.99-5.43 lakh.
Hyundai said that the i20 would be powered with this same engine when it is launched.
Hyundai Motor India Ltd (HMIL) Managing Director and CEO Heung Soo Lheem said in a statement: “The i20 will be launched by the end of 2008 and it will complete our range of product portfolio in the compact car segment.”
He added: “With the launch of these models, the contribution from Indian operation to overall global sale of Hyundai will increase to 15 per cent in a couple of years from the current 12 per cent.”
About the new engine, Lheem said: “This engine is exclusively manufactured in India only. This shows Hyundai’s commitment to make India as a global small car hub.”
