In recent days, car manufacturers have been announcing that their cars will become more expensive from the new year. However, Hyundai India has already made a move. Hyundai Motors has increased the price of its top-selling hatchback i20 by Rs 26,500.
The new prices have come into effect immediately. Along with the new prices, a new Era Manual variant has also been introduced in the i20 segment. It is often seen that when a new variant is added, the old one is discontinued, but that is not the case with the i20. In the Indian auto market, the price of this car starts at Rs 6.99 lakh and goes up to Rs 11.16 lakh with the top model. Let’s take a look at the car’s features, engine, and safety features.
