Live from the launch: Hyundai ix20

The Hyundai/Kia partnership may produce the odd bespoke car for each manufacturer (the sporty Hyundai coupes perhaps?) but the majority of the line-ups will bear a large amount of similarity to one another, in basic role if not in looks.

The Hyundai ix20 will perform the same job as the Kia Venga, but as the Hyundai is arriving in this country a good deal later than the Kia, it has managed to get one up on its cousin.
