Rumour: 3rd-gen Hyundai i20 to get DCT gearbox

According to a media report, the third-generation Hyundai i20 is likely to be launched in 2020 and it could be offered with a dual-clutch transmission option.

The new i20 has already been spotted testing in India. It is likely to get a new hexagonal grille and wraparound projector headlamps. It could come with a redesigned rear end, dual-tone alloy wheels and a shark fin antenna. It is likely to get redesigned interiors as well with a touchscreen infotainment system along with other features.

The next-generation i20 could be offered with a choice of 1.2-litre petrol and 1.4-litre diesel engine options. Reports suggest that the i20 might also get the 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol unit that powers the Venue compact SUV. In addition to a manual transmission, a dual-clutch automatic is also likely to be offered.
