When GM launched its highly successful compact here in Brazil, it had its own characteristics for our market, including the 1.0 engine, which enjoys tax reduction, a policy that no longer makes sense, but that’s how it is.

So, the i20 abroad became HB20 here and the new i20, to be launched by Hyundai worldwide, will also give rise to a platform for the new HB20 and, consequently, for the new Onix. And in addition to the new Onix, the new Montana pickup and the new Tracker SUV also arrive.
