ollowing on from the successful i10
Blue launched at the beginning of the year, Hyundai has now added
another sub-100g/km CO2 model to its range – the i20 Blue.
With emissions of just 98g/km CO2, it is the lowest emitting
vehicle in Hyundai UK’s product line-up.
The i20 Blue is based on the current
i20 Comfort trim level mated to the 1.4 CRDi 90 PS engine and is priced
at £13,195 OTR.
To achieve the sub-100g/km CO2
figures, the i20 Blue has the following Blue Drive technologies:
Intelligent Stop & Go (ISG), low rolling resistance tyres, rear
suspension under cover and rear wheel deflector. With these additional
features, the i20 Blue achieves a 12% reduction in CO2
emissions (compared with the current 1.4 CRDi 90PS Style i20 model) from
111g/km down to just 98g/km.
Drivers of the i20 Blue won’t need to
be making regular visits to a fuel stationeither. The 1.4 CRDi Euro V
compliant four-cylinder engine achieves a remarkable 76.4mpg combined -
the sort of cheap-to-run credentials that are important as the cost of
motoring continues to rise. This is a 14% improvement on a combined
cycle when compared to the i20 1.4 CRDi 90PS Style model.
To put these figures into perspective,
it would cost approximately £63.00 to fill up the i20 Blue with a tank
of diesel and this would generate a range of 755 miles! As well as
excellent fuel economy, the i20 Blue also gains exemption from VED and
the London Congestion Charge as it emits less than 100g/km CO2.
The i20 Blue also comes with plenty of
standard equipment including 15” alloy wheels, Bluetooth connectivity
with voice recognition, electric heated and folding door mirrors,
electric front and rear windows, steering wheel audio controls, USB and
aux connections air conditioning and remote central locking.
Sitting alongside the i10 Blue, the new
i20 Blue model demonstrates Hyundai’s continuous commitment to
increasing the efficiency of both its petrol and diesel engines.
On-sale now, and like all Hyundai
passenger cars, the Hyundai i20 Blue comes with a Five Year Triple Care
package, which includes a five-year, unlimited mileage, manufacturer
backed warranty, five years of roadside assistance and five years of
annual vehicle health checks.
