Hyundai HB20 which has also invested in sports engines with 1.0 and 1.6 horsepower and above-average finishes in its class.
The dimensions of the first generation HB20 are 3.90 m in length, 1.68 m in width, 1.47 m in height and 2.50 m in wheelbase. Its equipment includes hydraulic steering , dual airbag,
And the installation of Isofix, air conditioning, height adjustment for the driver’s seat, the center console with the storage compartment, among other things.
In the engine, in addition to options with 1.0 three-cylinder and 1.6 four-cylinder, all versions were equipped with flexible engines with an aluminum block. In the transmission, the transmission is a five-speed manual, although in the 1.6 version there is an automatic transmission option.
The HB20 family has also gained other members, such as the sedan version, called the HB20S, and the more adventurous sibling, the HB20X.
The process of naming models within automakers goes through a series of steps until arriving at an ideal name. In general, vehicle name choices include an appreciation for places, people, acronyms, or puns.
With the HB20, the surprise is even greater when we find out the reason behind the name. According to Hyundai itself, the letter “H” indicates the automaker, the letter “B” indicates Brazil – this is the first Hyundai car produced in the country from start to finish – and 20 – the size of the chassis used in this version.
In fact, our country had a very big influence in creating the HB20: the team of South Korean designers from Hyundai involved in the project came to live in Brazil for a year to absorb and express our culture in the model lines.
After a minor restyling applied in 2015, Hyundai announced in 2019 the second generation of the HB20 on the market, which brought significant changes to the model. Amid many criticisms about its design –
Based on the Saga EV concept – the automaker’s intention with the launch was to compete with the Chevrolet Onyx and Ford Ka, two of the best-selling cars in Brazil.
The new HB20 2020 then arrived with good changes compared to the first generation of the model. At the front, a sharp grille that goes to the bumper, new headlights and a more slanted hood. At the back, the biggest change was in the shape of the lantern, which has an opening at the top. In addition, the trunk lid,
Which maintains the same 300-liter capacity, it folds down, and the C-pillar has a black finish that connects the side windows to the rear hatch.
As for the dimensions, there were also some modifications. The 2020 HB20 now measures 3.94 meters in length, 1.74 meters in width, 1.47 meters in height and 2.53 meters in wheelbase. Except for the height, which has remained the same, the changes have left the HB20 2020’s interior space larger for rear passengers.

The interior was also different: the cabin of the 2020 HB20 adopted straight, clean lines on the dashboard, the steering wheel controls were redesigned,
The instrument panel received a partial digital set-up in the more expensive versions, and the multimedia center came in a floating style – protruding outside the console – and, depending on the version,
It can be brown with blue accents.
In the 2020 HB20 engine, the options originally offered were 1.0, 1.6 and 1.0 TGDI turbo – this is because the Asian manufacturer has officially announced its plans to ditch the lower-selling 1.6 engine. In the entry form,
The engine has three cylinders and heated nozzles and works 9.1 km / l in the city and 10.1 km / l on the road,
filled with ethanol; With gasoline, its efficiency increases to 12.8 km / l in the city and 14.6 km / l on the highway.
The intermediate model has a four-cylinder manual or a six-speed automatic transmission and an output of 8.6 km / l in the city and 10.3 km / l on the road, with ethanol supply, 12.5 km / l and 14.7 km / l. , respectively, if it is filled with gasoline. In automatic transmissions, the values tend to be smaller.
Finally, in the latest model, which is the top of the line, there is a three-cylinder with direct injection and a six-speed automatic transmission. Thus, its consumption is about 8.6 km / l in the city and 10.3 km / l on the road with ethanol, 12.2 km / l in the city and 13.9 km / l on the road with gasoline.
Sales success Since its launch , which is considered a revolution in the small car segment , HB20 continues to achieve outstanding results in the market. In September, the compact hatchback was the best-selling model, with 7,147 units, overtaking SUVs such as the Jeep Compass and Volkswagen T-Cross. With this data from Fenabrave, the HB20 shows how it has become “popular” among the popular cars in Brazil.
However, this number of sales is nothing new. In August, for example, the Hyundai model actually popped up on the bestseller list, with 6,795 units, according to a survey conducted by the same entity. Meanwhile, for Fenauto, the HB20, in the same month, was
The seventh best-selling used and semi-new model in the country, with about 26 thousand units.
