Hyundai presents its 20 i2016

It is in Alzenau in Germany, in the premises of Hyundai MotorsportThat the i20 New Generation was revealed this morning. Based on the 5-door version, the new weapon from the Korean firm will replace the previous i20 seen over the last two seasons on the world stage.

Three cars, badged numbers 3, 4 and 20, will be entered year-round by Hyundai in 2016. If two examples of the 20 i2016 will be present at Monte-Carlo from January 22 to 24, an old i20 will strengthen the Korean contingent on the opening round of the WRC. From Sweden, three 20 i2016s will be lined up.

The Spaniard Dani Sordo, the New Zealander Hayden Paddon and the Belgian Thierry Neuville will be present all year round, the composition of the two teams, Team Shell WRT and Team Mobis WRT, being subject to modification at each event. The Dutchman Kevin Abbring, retained as test pilot, will take part in some events on a fourth example, in addition of his work developing the R5 version.

“The New Generation i20 is the result of a full year of development, specifies Team Principal Michel Nandan. With a more experienced team, we must increase our objectives to be more confident in fighting at the front. »
