While we get the Hyundai Accent, Europe and other world markets get the i20, seen above.
Although powertrains haven’t been announced yet, the design of the car seems to echo European entrants in the B-segment, specifically in the fascia and the blacked out C-pillars. The Turkish-built i20 will debut at this fall’s Paris Motor Show, though our market is unlikely to see it. Instead, we’re stuck with the Accent.

- GregLocock Not as my primary vehicle no, although like all the rich people who are currently subsidised by poor people, I'd buy one as a runabout for town.
- Jalop1991 is this anything like a cheap high end German car?
- HotRod Not me personally, but yes - lower prices will dramatically increase the EV's appeal.
- Slavuta "the price isn’t terrible by current EV standards, starting at $47,200"Not terrible for a new Toyota model. But for a Vietnamese no-name, this is terrible.

Too bad Transparent Aluminum isn't a thing... then Hyundai could turn that huge blacked-out C-pillar into something more practical.
I don't think the Hyundai Accent is the same as i20, the Hyundai Accent is the i25 and there is a big difference, I got the i20 as rental and also got the i25 as rental, it's not the same car at all. Nevertheless, I don't like any of them.
