The Hyundai HB20 ("HB" stands for "Hyundai Brasil") is a subcompact by Korean manufacturer Hyundai launched in 2012. It is the third vehicle produced in Brazil and has flexible-fuel engines, therefore it is not exported to other South American countries. It has two engine options, one of them from Kia Picanto (1.0L I3 with 75hp).[1] The higher versions do feature a 1.6L gamma engine with 128 hp. The HB20 is available with a 6-speed automatic and manual transmission for both 1.0L and 1.6L.[2] Their rivals are Chevrolet Onix, Ford New Fiesta and is marketed exclusively in Brazil.

Variants

HB20X

The Hyundai HB20X is a mini SUV version which sets it apart from the standard HB20. As is the case for other similar models, it is available only with front-wheel drive.

It is produced and sold only in Brazil to compete in the expanding mini SUV market (see Ford EcoSport and Fiat Idea Adventure).

This version contains mixed-use tires, a suspension raised slightly and a few visual upgrades. It is available only with the 1.6L gamma engine.

HB20S

The Hyundai HB20S is the sedan version of the HB20 hatchback. It has the same engine and transmission choices from the regular HB20.

It has the same wheelbase as the hatchback but is longer 4.23 m (166.5 in) and has a bigger trunk (450 liters against 300 liters in the regular HB20).
