Pretty certain this isn't for the American market. The Accent already fill this segment. The Accent is actually the #1 selling B-segment car in the US now (passing Yaris and Versa). I think it's done it because it's the price winner while still offering the 100,000 mile warranty.

They scrapped the Accent in Australia and now sell the i30. I dare say the i20 is an afterthought and an inferior younger brother.

Very pleasant styling. At the right price point, it would probably be a winner here in the States.

I think so, the UK and Euro got it first

Aus nxt. America will have to wait.

You might be right. But the Accent is getting old. The I 30 will probably replace it and the i20 will be the base model.
