Hyundai has been teasing the Bayon compact crossover for several weeks now. The Bayon will come to the European market in the first half of 2021. Hyundai Bayon will join the Kona, Tucson, Nexo, and Santa Fe, becoming the latest member of the Hyundai SUV lineup in Europe. The high-riding derivative of the new i20 is destined to succeed the previous-gen i20 Active in Europe. Now, renders of the upcoming SUV has been made based on a brochure leak that gives us a clear idea of how the car will look.

The design falls in line with the company’s current design language. The front of the car looks similar to the new-gen i20 that was recently launched in the Indian market. The car looks butch with a few notable styling changes. At the front-end, the Bayon also gets elements inspired by the Kona. It gets a large grille along with a dual-headlamp with LED DRLs sitting atop the actual headlight units. The massive grille is flanked by daytime running lights.

At the side, the Bayon resembles the i20 apart from the slightly tweaked window line design. The car now sits on a set of the same wheels as the Euro-spec i20 as well. At the rear, the car gets arrow-shaped LED brake lights that are linked with the help of a light bar stretching across the width of the tailgate. Skid plates both at the front and the back gives the car a much-needed muscular stance. The Korean manufacturer has confirmed that the Bayon will go on sale as the most affordable SUV in its lineup in Europe in the first of 2021.
