Who is the Hyundai HB20 for
City driver
If your daily route is Asuncion and surroundings, the 1.0 manual is more than enough and the 13 km/l city consumption keeps costs low.
First car
The 5-year warranty provides peace of mind, and the entry price is competitive against the Onix and Polo. Ideal for those who don't want unexpected costs.
Small family
The HB20S (sedan) with 475-liter trunk and 5 seats covers the needs of a 3-4 person family needing a practical car without jumping to an SUV.
Tech-savvy buyer
8-inch screen, CarPlay/Android Auto, cruise control and reverse camera. More tech equipment than most in the segment at this price range.

- Volkswagen Polo: better driving dynamics and interior finish, but higher entry price and no touchscreen on base version.
- Toyota Etios: unbeatable in mechanical reliability and service network, but outdated design and less tech equipment.
