Hyundai will celebrate the world premiere of its new B-segment MPV At this year's Mondial de l'Automobile in Paris on September 30.

The Hyundai ix20 will adopt a more dynamic, sportier profile in line with Hyundai's reputation as a modern, progressive automaker, says the manufacturer.

Designed and developed at Hyundai's European R&D centre in Russelsheim, Germany, the ix20 is the second European car, following the ix35, to adopt Hyundai's new 'fluidic sculpture' design.

Another model making its world premiere at Paris is the new i10. This upgraded version of Hyundai's city car benefits from a comprehensive set of enhancements in terms of design, specification and competiveness - including a new 1.0-litre engine with CO2 emissions of 99 g/km.

The international motor show will also afford Hyundai the opportunity to showcase the latest developments of its Blue Drive eco-focused program.
