Hyundai is celebrating 20 years of their existence in India. And to mark this occasion, the carmaker plans to offer a special edition of the Xcent.
The Hyundai Xcent in the pictures here reveals the changes made to the standard sedan to exude some exclusivity. Externally, the car gets chrome highlights for the front bumper, a spoiler with integrated stop lamp on the tailgate and decals on the side. There is also a '20th Anniversary Special Edition' badge at the back. The absence of alloy wheels suggests that it will be based either on the base or the S variant.
The new feature in the interior is a touch screen display by Blaupunkt. Currently, the standard Base variant of the Xcent doesn't get a music system and the S variant gets a 2-Din integrated system only. The cabin might get new fabric mats and LED scuff plates on the doors as a part of the package.
The current line-up of petrol and diesel engines will be carried over. The petrol trim will continue to be powered by the 1.2-litre Kappa engine that produces 81bhp of power and 114Nm of torque. The diesel gets a 71bhp 1.1-litre mill and both these engines come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox.
The changes to the exterior and interior do enhance the appeal of the car and add to some benefits. If Hyundai offers the special edition at the same price of the regular Xcent, it will surely be a good overall package.
