Trunk dimensions Hyundai i20

The Hyundai i20 2024 offers a trunk with a volume of about 12.4 cu ft, which increases to approximately 41.1 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down.

The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility when transporting larger items. The interior design is modern and functional, with a low loading lip that makes loading and unloading easier.

The trunk dimensions vary slightly within the model range, with a focus on practicality and a well-usable space. Typical features include a rectangular shape that supports efficient use of the trunk, as well as practical storage compartments.

Model Information

The Hyundai i20 is a compact small car characterized by its modern design, efficiency, and extensive equipment. The latest series of the i20 offers a variety of technological features that enhance both driving comfort and safety.

With a sporty exterior and a spacious interior, the i20 targets a broad audience, from young drivers to families seeking a practical vehicle.

Variants of the Same Series

The Hyundai i20 is mainly offered as a hatchback. However, there is also a variant called the i20 N, which is sportier and features more powerful engines and a sportier chassis.

These variants should not be confused, as they differ significantly in performance, equipment, and design. The i20 is not available as a sedan or convertible, clearly distinguishing it from other models in the Hyundai lineup.

Yearly Differences

The Hyundai i20 has undergone several model changes over the years. The most significant changes regarding body dimensions and trunk volume occurred in 2014 with the introduction of the second generation and in 2020 with the third generation.

These updates led to an enlargement of the trunk and an optimization of the interior design, improving the vehicle's comfort and practicality.

Direct Competition

In the same vehicle class, the Hyundai i20 competes with models like the Ford Fiesta, Volkswagen Polo, and Opel Corsa. The Ford Fiesta offers a trunk volume of about 10.3 cu ft, while the Volkswagen Polo provides around 12.4 cu ft.

The Opel Corsa has a trunk volume of approximately 10.9 cu ft. The i20 thus positions itself in the mid-range but offers better cargo capacity than some of its competitors.

More Affordable Alternatives

More affordable models with similar trunk dimensions include the Dacia Sandero and the Kia Picanto. The Dacia Sandero offers a trunk volume of about 11.6 cu ft, making it an attractive alternative.

The Kia Picanto, on the other hand, has a smaller volume of about 9 cu ft. These models are generally cheaper but may not offer the same equipment or comfort as the Hyundai i20.

Trunk Volume

The specifications for the Hyundai i20 2024 trunk vary depending on the measurement method. The practically relevant values are:

  • Manufacturer specification: 12.4 cu ft.
  • Independent measurement (under the cover): 9 cu ft — this is the realistically expected usable storage space in everyday use.
  • Up to the window sill with folded rear seats: approx. 22.8 cu ft (independent of manufacturer).
  • Roof height with folded rear seats: 1,055–41.1 cu ft (depending on measurement method: manufacturer vs. independent measurement).

Relative to the vehicle volume, the trunk accounts for about 5.8%, placing it slightly below the segment average (−0.7 percentage points). Compared to its class, the trunk is compact but significantly expandable with folded seats.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 160.2 in length, 70.1 in width, 57.1 in height. Compared to an average car, the i20 is shorter (−19.7 in), narrower (−3.1 in), and lower (−4.3 in). The short rear makes the i20 very suitable for parking and city driving:

  • Easier to fit into tight parking spaces and underground garages.
  • With a total length of 160.2 in, there is sufficient space compared to standard parking spots (the i20 is about 37 in shorter and 28.7 in narrower than a normal parking space), making parking more comfortable.
  • Empty weight 1,140 kg and payload 460 kg: sufficient load capacity for everyday use and shopping, but when fully loaded with four people, storage and payload limits must be considered.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

For everyday use, not only volume is decisive but also accessibility and unloading comfort:

  • Loading height: The loading lip is relatively high at 28.7 in; suitcases or heavy shopping bags must be lifted accordingly.
  • The double loading floor has two positions: in the lower position, an internal step of 7.1 in is created; in the upper position, only 2.8 in. In the upper position, an almost flat loading surface can be created with the folded backrest.
  • The rear seat backs are asymmetrically split and can be folded down easily (also operable from the trunk); headrests do not need to be removed. When raising them again, seat belt buckles should be inserted into the guides to avoid damage.
  • Practical details: The parcel shelf can be locked upright in front of the rear seat back; the tailgate has a hidden handle recess and opens high enough so that people up to ~1.95 m do not collide with the hatch.
  • Limitations: There is only a small interior light in the trunk (insufficient for even illumination) and only one bag hook — small items are difficult to secure. However, up to five standard beverage crates fit if the configuration is used accordingly.

General Model Information

Familiarity and positioning: The i20 is an established small car model in the B-segment and is characterized by a compact format, practical everyday usability, and modern assistance features in higher trims.

Special features and peculiarities:

  • Basic lighting technology: halogen headlights in the simpler trims; LED daytime running lights, static high beam assistant standard. LED headlights and cornering lights only with optional light package.
  • Some everyday disadvantages from tests: vibrations at the rearview mirror can impair visibility, hazard lights disable turn signals (problematic e.g. when towing), and the optional keyless entry system has security concerns (relay attack).
  • Pet-friendly details such as a pull-out dog ramp or dog mat are available — practical for pet owners.

Price-performance overview: The i20 generally offers a good everyday package for buyers seeking a compact, practically usable car. Basic equipment is functional; comfort and safety features increase everyday usability but are often only offered in higher trims or as options.

Competitors: typically Volkswagen Polo, Toyota Yaris, Renault Clio, Ford Fiesta, or Seat Ibiza — all competitors in the small car/B-segment offering similar compromises between size, comfort, and cargo space.
