The model is based on the successful i20 lineup and takes inspiration from the i20 Coupe WRC vehicle. It blends an elegant and yet aggressive design, refined drivetrain system, and tons of advanced safety systems.

Drivetrain system

The vehicle is capable of producing a total of 204hp and 275Nm of torque via a 1.6-liter T-GDi turbocharged flat power four-cylinder power unit. Hyundai's engineers have managed to utilize the performance-focused engine for any everyday driving situation. An additional feature that contributes to i20 N's smooth performance is the optimal power-to-weight ratio - curb weight ranges from 1190kg to 1330kg depending on specification.

Additional tech aspects include the N Corner Carving Differential, a mechanical limited-slip differential that regulates the gearbox of the engine's output to the front wheels and ensures optimum grip and traction in any road situation.

There's also a launch control system that ensures maximum-power acceleration start to every run and seamless synchronization between the engine and output shaft for smoother gear changes. Also, the vehicle provides five driving modes, Normal, Eco, Sport, N, and N Custom, which are offered by Hyundai's N Grin Control System.
