New Hyundai i20 Fuel Efficiency Diesel variant

The Hyundai i20 is one among the oldest premium hatchback nameplates still on sale in India. it’s now into its third-gen avatar and is obtainable with a complete of three engines (same because the Venue) including a 1.5-litre diesel (the only other hatchback within the segment to urge a diesel along side the Tata Altroz). Hyundai offers this engine with only a 6-speed MT gearbox. We managed to run our fuel efficiency test with this 1.5-litre diesel-equipped i20 and here are our findings:

Engine1.5-litre Diesel
Power100PS
Torque240Nm
Transmission6-speed Manual
Claimed fuel efficiency25kmpl
Tested fuel efficiency (city)18.51kmpl
Tested fuel efficiency (highway)23.35kmpl

As per our test, the new i20 with the 1.5-litre diesel mated to a 6-speed manual fell short by over 6kmpl compared to its claimed average ARAI figure when driven within the city. It, however, fared quite well when taken on the highway because the tested fuel efficiency figure stood at 23.35kmpl.

Based on the results from our efficiency test from city and highway driving conditions, we’ve estimated how the diesel-powered i20 would perform in mixed driving conditions:

MileageCity:Highway (50:50)City:Highway (25:75)City:Highway (75:25)
20.65kmpl21.91kmpl19.52kmpl

If you employ the i20 diesel equally between the town and highway, expect it to deliver a mileage of around 20kmpl. For those that use their hatchback totally on wider stretches of roads, the fuel efficiency should go up by around 1.3kmpl. just in case your usage is majorly limited to the town , the new i20’s diesel is predicted to return a mileage of around 19kmpl.

It is important to notice that fuel efficiency depends on a mixture of driving conditions, the car’s condition also as your driving style, so your experience may vary from ours. If you own an i20 diesel, be happy to share your findings with us within the comments.
