Under the hood, the upcoming i20 N Line will be powered by the existing 1.0-litre Turbo GDi engine that produces 118bhp and 172Nm of torque. The iMT unit will be standard, while the DCT unit will be limited to the top-spec N8 variant. It is believed that the i20 N Line will also get a sporty suspension setup and quicker throttle response to offer superior driving dynamics.
