The new i20 looks a very tidy design, but I dont think it will turn heads in awe or excitement.

I admit the livery does a very good job making the car look way better.

Hyundai got the dark blue paint out once VW left then haha.

On the contrary I think the livery helps hide the big arches and front aero...

By the way, why is it called the i20 Coupe ?

Agreed, the white test car was really good looking and the livery ruined it a bit

That's the name of the stock 3-door version, at least on some markets.

Bit silly when its not a different body shell to the 5-door. Plus they also have the Veloster which IS a coupe.

Manufacturers like to call anything three door a Coupe these days. BMW called that hideous 1 Series 3-door saloon a Coupe too.

Well, also the 2016 livery was quite ugly at first but now it actually looks pretty good. And my initial reaction to this was better than last year.
