The Hyundai i20 uses a completely new platform that was created at Hyundai's European technical centre in Rüsselsheim to allow Hyundai to move into Europe's highly competitive subcompact B segment. A {{convert|2525|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} wheelbase helps endow the i20 with a generous passenger cabin. Suspension follows the supermini norm of MacPherson struts at the front and a torsion beam rear end, with rack and pinion steering.

A slightly upgraded version of the i20, called the iGen i20, went on sale in India in March 2012 onward with tweaked headlamps, new front grille, tail lamps and fog lamps. It follows the "Fluidic Sculpture" design philosophy with slightly retuned engines. A new next generation model, known as Elite i20 in India, was launched in India on 11 August 2014 and in Europe in the 2014 Paris Motor Show.{{cite web|author=Shivank Bhatt|url=http://www.gaadi.com/news/hyundais-all-new-elite-i20-launched-at-rs-4-90-lakh-10339 |title=Hyundai's all-new Elite i20 launched at Rs 4.90 lakh |publisher=Gaadi.com |access-date=11 August 2014}}{{cite web|author=Noah Joseph |url=http://www.autoblog.com/2014/08/12/2015-hyundai-i20-paris-official/ |title=Hyundai reveals new i20 hatchback ahead of Paris debut |date=12 August 2014 |publisher=autoblog.com |access-date=29 September 2014}}

The third-generation i20 was launched in the country on 5 November 2020. It dropped the "Elite" prefix from the previous generation, now simply marketed as the "Hyundai i20". The Indian-market i20, codenamed BI3, is {{cvt|45|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} shorter than the European version to circumvent the Indian tax bracket which favours vehicles shorter than {{cvt|4000|mm|in|1|abbr=on}}, while it is {{cvt|25|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} wider and {{cvt|55|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} taller.{{Cite web|title=Hyundai i20 2020 India vs Euro-spec: Features, Powertrains And Dimensions Compared - ZigWheels|url=https://www.zigwheels.com/news-features/spec-comparo/hyundai-i20-2020-india-vs-eurospec-features-powertrains-and-dimensions-compared/40297/|access-date=2021-02-09|website=ZigWheels.com}} It is built on the Hyundai-Kia K2 platform shared with other Hyundai-Kia recent compact cars.

The i20 is sold in India with two frontal airbags, antilock brakes, front seatbelt reminders and ISOFIX anchorages standard across the range. Electronic stability control, a tyre pressure monitor, front-seat side thorax airbags and head-protecting curtain airbags are optional on the regular i20 and standard on the i20 N.{{Cite web |title=2020 Hyundai i20 review, test drive |url=https://www.autocarindia.com/car-reviews/2020-hyundai-i20-review-test-drive-419082 |access-date=2022-07-12 |website=Autocar India |language=en}}

The i20 was tested by Global NCAP in the first half of 2022.[https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5fb4ea8933ae6c208c3dac41/t/6255259f3b052d1f4a7b6eb9/1649747360845/SCfI2022-Hyundaii20-factsheet.pdf Hyundai i20 Factsheet] In the frontal offset crash test into a deformable barrier at 64 km/h, dummy readings showed only adequate protection of the driver's head. The i20 was penalised for unstable structural performance of the passenger compartment and rupture of the driver's footwell, both of which indicate poor integrity of the recorded structural performance. Dummy readings of moderate chest compression and the unstable passenger compartment led to chest protection being rated weak, consequently the i20 could not score points for seatbelt reminders.{{Cite web|url=https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5fb4ea8933ae6c208c3dac41/t/604f5017b746234915afcd01/1615810586137/assessment-protocol-Adult.pdf|title=Global NCAP New Market Assessment Protocol for Adult Occupant Protection - August 2017|accessdate=21 January 2024}} Structures behind the dashboard could increase risk of knee injury to differently sized or positioned occupants; the unstable passenger compartment and ruptured footwell meant Hyundai were not allowed to demonstrate otherwise.{{Cite web|url=https://cdn.euroncap.com/media/1479/euro-ncap-sled-test-procedure-v27.pdf|title=Euro NCAP Knee Mapping Protocol - version 2.7|accessdate=21 January 2024}} Using the child seats recommended by Hyundai, dynamic performance of the 3 year-old and 18 month-old child occupants was good, but readings of excessive neck tension in the forward-facing three-year old dummy meant that the i20 narrowly missed a four star rating for child occupant protection.

The i20 in its standard European market configuration received 4 stars from Euro NCAP in 2021, with test results inherited from the Bayon.{{Cite web|url=https://www.euroncap.com/en/results/hyundai/i20/46622|title=Official Hyundai i20 2021 safety rating|website=www.euroncap.com}}{{clarify|Results inherited? I think I know what this means, but I don't want to speculate|date=November 2024}}

A performance version called the i20 N was revealed for the European market in October 2020.{{Cite web|date=2020-10-22|title=2021 Hyundai i20 N will arrive in Europe with 201 HP engine|url=https://www.slashgear.com/2021-hyundai-i20-n-will-arrive-in-europe-with-201-hp-engine-22643770/|access-date=2021-02-09|website=SlashGear|language=en-US}} It slots under the i30 N in the Hyundai N family.

The i20 N is powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged GDi engine mated to a 6-speed manual transmission with automatic rev matching. This engine has {{cvt|201|hp|PS kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{cvt|275|Nm|kgm lbft|abbr=on|sigfig=3}} of torque. As the i20 N only weighs {{convert|1190|kg|lb|abbr=on}}, it is able to accelerate from {{convert|0-100|km/h|mph|0|abbr=on}} in a 6.2 seconds with a top speed of {{convert|230|km/h|mph|0|abbr=on}}.{{Cite web|title=2021 Hyundai i20 N Debuts As A 204-HP Compact Hot Hatch|url=https://www.motor1.com/news/449957/2021-hyundai-i20-n-revealed/|access-date=2021-02-09|website=Motor1.com|language=en}}

Its engine delivers peak torque between 1,750 and 4,500 rpm and hits peak power between 5,500 and 6,000 rpm. The broad power band helps its acceleration performance throughout the mid and high-speed range. Although the Smartstream engine is featured in other Hyundai models, for the i20 N it is equipped with a bespoke turbocharger and intercooler system.

Changes also include a mechanical limited-slip differential, a reinforced chassis at 12 different points, and a reinforced front domes and knuckles with distinct geometry for the torsion beam suspension. The camber has also been increased while a new sway bar, new springs, and new shock absorbers have been fitted. The brakes have also been enlarged, being 40mm larger than the base i20 brakes.

Production of the i20 N has ceased for the European market starting from February 2024, and Hyundai N will only offer electric models in the region.{{Cite web |date=2024-02-24 |title=Hyundai i30 N, i20 N hot hatches dropped in Europe, safe in Australia with facelifts |url=https://www.drive.com.au/news/hyundai-i30-n-i20-n-axed-europe-safe-australia/ |access-date=2024-04-30 |website=Drive |language=en-AU}} Despite its discontinuation in Europe, the facelifted model of the i20 N is being prepared for export to the Australian market.{{Cite web|last=Anderson|first=Brad|date=2020-10-20|title=2021 Hyundai i20 N Is Here To Shake Up The Hot Hatch Market|url=https://www.carscoops.com/2020/10/2021-hyundai-i20-n-is-here-to-shake-up-the-hot-hatch-market/|access-date=2021-02-09|website=Carscoops}}
